I felt like you before I wrote my PS. I thought I was so boring and would have nothing to write about. But I got to thinking and I went through an experience that, although not unique in my community, I think is not a frequent experience that lots o…

BOO! https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/23032845_10207794047809437_6136457645066040453_n.jpg?oh=e1fb88433155c715ace126c4f77b77ad&oe=5AA90632

Sit them down and have them do a full PT under timed conditions, and when they see what you are up against they may say "oh". This is of course assuming they don't get a 180 their first PT or just do extremely well in general, haha.

Wait until you receive your december score to apply. Schools wont look at your apps until it is complete with a score, so try not to submit it incomplete. You should however, have all of your apps ready to go so that by the time scores come out, yo…

I'm not sure it's common to do so on your resume, but I do know that some applications want you to specify how many hours you worked per week at a job.

damn that sucks! if you have the luxury of doing so, maybe push back to June! February is fine, of course, but giving yourself more time for the June test if you're applying next cycle can be a good idea! of course assuming you have stuff to fix w…

Try to contact professors in which you did very well in their classes and hope they write you one

I will most likely be there to hear your story, Daniel I know it will be inspiring!

The T13 minus Yale and Stanford (and minus UT if you go by T14), WUSTL, Fordham and probably 1 NYC safety school because why not.

got one from Berkeley most likely due to GPA (3.8+) with a crappy LSAT score
-
you can use one but don't do it.. just use your pencil, highlighters suck for the LSAT

@Sarah889 said: @TheMikey @AllezAllez21 Maybe they come in waves then? Because my numbers should get me one, based one what you both are telling me. @TheMikey when did you get yours? about a week ago

I got waivers from BU and Cornell. GPA: 3.8+ but LSAT not that great.

To see if a school gave you a fee waiver, you go on your app for that school and it should show: Pay fees and submit: Application Waived Report If a school has not explicitly told you they gave you a fee waiver and it doesn't show up on that pag…

Since you've been out of school for so long, try to reach out to former employers! If you think the judge or lawyers can write GOOD LORs for you, then go for it. I say don't worry about the professors LOR though, you're 15 years out and they will u…

I was a very slow reader for RC as well. Never finished it on time either. What I honestly did was force myself to read faster. Yeah, it's hard but possible, you just need to drill a crap ton. you have to notice the stuff that seems to be most impor…
-
I say skip it this go around and go to one next year once you are ready to apply. There isn't much you can gain from these forums besides fee waivers, which is why I say go next year instead of now! I haven't been to one, but I heard all they real…

Taking time off will not hurt you as that attorney claims. 'prestigious positions'? no, you don't have to do anything like that during your time off. Frankly, you can work at McDonalds and schools really won't care. Work in something you think you …

good luck on your PT!

Yeah, you're fine to indicate summa cum laude on your resume. They will be able to check on your transcript either way. If I'm understanding correctly, you're asking if you should put both your LSAC GPA and UG GPA on your resume? I say no, just put…

Don't studying while working out. Have working out be a break from studying.

@Kayyyyyyy said: I was wondering the same thing. I haven't gotten some of the fee waivers that other folks with both lower GPAs and LSAT scores have gotten (Berkeley, for example) - can anyone offer an explanation? Ive been signed up for CRS s…

Doubt they can tell you have their app open. I have had several apps open for weeks and have received unsolicited waivers from multiple of those schools.

You can pick which LORs you want to submit to what schools And you CAN read a LOR before sending it to a school BUT that's if you don't waive your rights to see the LOR. Waiving your rights to not see a LOR is better imo though because it shows tha…
