Thank you so much! What an unexpected surprise!!! Merry Christmas y'all!!!

Congratulations!!!!

The answers vary depending on your goals, debt aversion, national reach of schools you are looking at and a host of other things. The general rule of thumb is that you should go to law school where you want to work....but is not absolute. Typically…

Were you active in any other groups or clubs in school? I tried to do the school/work/study for LSAT combo and failed twice so I know what you mean. The main thing is that you are doing something with your time; that is what admissions is looking fo…

@beezmoof Hey I'm in the same shoes. Graduated December of 2016 and I've had to push the test off multiple times. I currently work part-time as a server so I can focus on the LSAT and have had the same thoughts as you. Its hard to see a lot of your …

If the relationship is meaningful, then I see no problem with it especially since its a working one. The problem with political letters typically is that they are a "friend" of the family and you barely know them which makes the letter cheap and me…

I think I see why A is wrong, though I didn't really use a logic chain. A says, "Pollen and other allergens do not cause colds." The first premise given is that pollen and other allergens cause the release of histamine, but histamine does not cause…

@BrianSeo Awesome! Glad we were able to help!

Do you understand/know the different types of flaws? Having a solid understanding of them is immensely helpful. I know there is a list of them in the flaw portion of the curriculum that describes each flaw. In addition, I'd recommend searching up t…

I have done that quite a bit; a habit I'd like to break eventually. I believe it really depends on how quickly you can break down the argument and locate where the premises and conclusion are. If you have trouble finding them, then move on and come …

@"Pink Dust" Thanks! The more I thought about it, I realized that only in the cases like the one you mentioned are where 1 is the "highest". Otherwise it is the other way around. Just need to remember/trust myself next time on it.
-
Thanks y'all for the responses! I feel absolutely dumb messing up on these rules. I'll second guess myself on something so simple, but the writers are counting on this. I've seen enough games where #1 is considered the highest but it is specifically…

@10000019 Thanks. I guess I'm second guessing myself too much on a simple thing. I'll keep my eye on the context a bit more.
-
That is such an inspiring story! Thank you for sharing!
-
When you say a coincidence is given, is that the conclusion for the question? Or is it a premise leading up to a correlation conclusion?
-
I'll give this a shot. Depends on if the question is a strengthening or weakening question. If we are talking strengthening, then you will be looking to block an alternative theory/cause. You want that single coincidence to be the reason that the c…

I completely agree. I would take this further and say this is true in life as well. When I dress for success, I feel like I accomplish a bit more whether it is LSAT or everyday errands. I think the mental aspect behind it that you are preparing your…

Thank you for posting this! This is one of my biggest problems in LR/RC. Great ideas posted above too!

@BinghamtonDave I think you hit it on the head for me with that post. You pretty much read my mind there. I do lack the tact to be strategic when I do brute force which goes back to the main issues of rules and their relationship with each other. …
-
@lmekahel I'm in the same boat. You should be okay. I'm out of UG and the big thing is that they want to see you are doing something with your time (same thing if you are still in school). Just make sure you include hours per week worked. Don't worr…

Thank you! Actually was pissed at an LG when I read this! Taking a step back is always helpful!

@"Alex Divine" said: My opinion is that there are so many factors to consider that I'm not sure! Like I said in my OP, I don't actually believe there is one answer, but I think it's a conversation worth having. In regards to your par…

@"Alex Divine" Where do you think people about to start up PT'ing should begin at then? I'm reviewing a lot of LR material and FP'ing and will begin soon. I have had this thought in my mind since I'm targeting June. I feel like the 40's would be bet…

@dfletch5 What in particular about them are you struggling with? Most Sagers would agree, it is more than just memorizing them, but understanding the relationship between the 2 items as well. Flashcards do help. I'd just also write down hypothetica…

Congrats!!!

@"Trust But Verify" said: For me Regional Rank matters. For example: You want to work in New Jersey, Seton Hall would be a lot more reliable than a school "ranked" higher on the left coast. Any time someone talks about "big law" (wtf is that a…

Ah ok this makes me feel a bit better. I have just seen all these people on their website with these high end jobs and I'm thinking "I'm nowhere near this!" haha. I appreciate help here!
-
Ah ok. I'm definitely not in that ball park but I graduated in Dec of 2016 and am only working as a part-time server at a restaurant while I study for the LSAT. You perked my ears with UVA and work history because that is something that has made me…

Curious because I'm considering UVA, how long have you been out of UG?
