Some great pointers here. I suffer from the same whenever I have a rough section (happened to me with RC when I sat in June). I also struggle when I come across a few tough questions in the first 10 on any of the sectio…

100% possible to do that. if you have to retake though, it's not a big deal. Once and done is the best though, I truly wish that would've been the case for me lol
that's how it's always been with harvard, and most schools though. they will consider all scores, but I still think they will just care most about the highest score. I feel like multiple scores (especially if there is a huge gap between scores like …

that still happens to me but if I screw up an earlier section I just tell myself that I have to try twice as hard to ace the other sections to have a chance at a decent score. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't lol. what do you do?
@uhinberg said:
that's good to know. Powerscore claims that you need to have a color pic, but I couldn't find any indication of that on LSAC's website.
then they are misinformed tbh
I peeped at many peoples' tickets and I'd confidently say …

So schools don't look at yor last two years for your gpa, but rather your whole undergrad cumulative GPA?
Schools look at EVERYTHING you did prior to getting your first bachelors degree granted to you. If you took community c…
hmmm, then I think you may be fine tbh.
Schools will have your LSAC number which has everything linked to your personal info (e.g. SSN), so idk I think you will be fine tbh.
But yeah, call them on Tuesday just to double check !
And what I mean by the minus thing if you weren't aware is for example, I think an A- counts as a 3.7 at most if not all schools? but LSAC counts an A- as a 3.67.

@Maximus4 said:
The reason I am confused about the A+ thing is because I had about a 3.83 GPA at CC and a 3.93 at a UC upon graduating, but my LSAC gpa is a 3.85 so I am confused as to how that helped increase my GPA lol. I feel like something…
Degree GPA is what you got at the school... Cumulative GPA is your LSAC GPA.
Also, if you have A+'s, you can be sure they made those a 4.33 when recalculating your GPA.
PT 81 is hard. I took it today and got completely wrecked, shake it off.
You may be burnt out tbh, take like 2 days off and then get back into it. I wouldn't postpone, it seems like you're more than capable of getting that high score.
It's time that is screwing you, just like LSATcantwin mentioned.
I had a gap similar to yours (high 150's, low 160's) and then during BR I could go as high as like a 178. The timer was stressing me out, but thankfully I eventually got over this hur…
LSATkayy,
mastering Q types really is key getting faster at them. if it all goes out the window once the timer is on, that can improve. trust me, I've been there before, the timer always screwed me up and made me nervous and everything I knew just …

Read for structure, not details. Don't get bogged down in the details. If you go back over a passage and highlight the exact sections, sentence(s) or phrase(s) in which an answer was to be found, I think you will see it i…
I like to bracket the sentence they are asking about before reading it all. It seems though that on recent PT's they've started to combine words from 2 sentences to form 1 sentence in the question stem that isn't word for word like they have been in…

PT71 had a -14 curve (you could miss 14 and still get a 170). I think the largest curve ever was -16 so this would be in the running. As always though, difficulty is subjective. So I like to go by the curve given because th…

I actually stopped myself from looking for logic first. I started saying to myself "what's missing" especially with the SA questions. Then I worked logic back in after I got good at spotting that leap in topic.

Practice, practice, practice!
Pay attention to words such as most, some, many (which translates to 'some'), majority (most), all and so on.
Also for sufficient conditions, pay attention to an indicator like IF.
For necessary conditions, pay atten…

I think it would be fine to get a grad professor to write you one tbh. You should try to get the other one from an UG prof though.
But since you said you'd like it better to get your LORs from UG profs, just do that!
