I do not know exactly what you mean by a portable AC unit but I would think that if it is on the other side of the room and not very noisy they will hardly notice or comment. That would be my assumption. Worst case they will ask you to remove it f…

I am a bit different but felt similarly. I have a lot of international work experience and study experience, but I did not feel like there was anything particularly interesting. I brainstormed a few different angles but none seemed good. Recently…

@joeym702 DO NOT STRESS. It will not help you and will make it harder to improve. Sit down and drill logic games for an hour or two a day for the next week. Having that many points left to make up in LG leaves you in a great place. You can absol…

So you did not ask about this, but I believe general scholarship funds require citizenship. I could be mistaken, and I am sure that some private funds do not, but if you want a decent scholarship from the university`s general fund you might be best…

Also, if you apply and things do not work out, no worries, you were already prepared to take another year. However, I am confident things will work out.

@arnisya97 To be honest, I am sold. I would admit you to my imaginary T14 school right now. If you can highlight these things in your application, perhaps through an addendum but elements could be addressed in your DS or even PS, I think you are …

@jonny2000 1000% agree. I have taken one PT on Lawhub and hated it. So obnoxious to have to deal with either tiny font or tons of scrolling.

To build off @joeytortellini 's good advice your priority until the LSAT is getting your score up. With a 3.83 if you can exceed the median/75th at BC you are a shoe-in with a decent application. Even if you just meet the median you are a very str…

I think that you would have to be very careful about how you wrote and worded it. If you decide to do so, proceed with caution.
-
I think that if you are able to leverage it well in your application it would definitely be very helpful. Schools value it because of the dedication and commitment athletics requires. That is certainly applicable to the grind of law school.
-
I am sure you will get some amount of money somewhere in the T14 unless you have an awful application. I do not know how much money you will get. I am worse off, 2.5ish GPA (but grad degree with 3.9ish) and with average PT at about 175. I am appl…

If anyone has a strategy for Psuedo-Sufficient Assumptions I would love to hear that as well.

@phancinanci said: Congratulations! Can I ask you what your study strategy is and how you were able to improve so fast? I'm also in the same boat as you where I also work full time, but can't find the best way to maximize my study time. Not …

Congrats. 7sage really is the best site to study. My score immediately jumped when I came here even though I have not done the core curriculum. Just the analytics and explanations and community immediately helped.
-
I am operating from a more academic perspective after grad school, which is not the same as law school academics, but showing that you have a specific research interest or career interest shows intellectual drive. Almost any grad school is not goin…

Congrats man, that is an amazing journey. Good luck on your future plans.

If you wait a cycle and pull your LSAT up to the upper 150's/160 you will have a lot more options. At that point Texas A&M might come into play with a strong application that explains your academic struggles in undergrad while the schools I men…
-
I agree with all of the above points. Do not go to a school that can not help you pass the bar and make sure you have as good a score as possible under your belt. To be honest, with a 147 and a 2.67 it will be very hard for you to get into a stron…
-
In the top 14 you are going to be fighting an uphill battle even with a 175. Outside of that many schools are happy to look at high LSAT super-splitters and some even give large scholarships. If you google splitter friendly law schools a list will…
-
Firstly, I think you should go ahead and cancel your October test date. if you are not close to the scores you want in PTs yet you are not very likely to suddenly jump 10 points on test day. November should still be in play but I think taking the …

After more than an hour messing around, it appears they have released some times between 4 and 5 AM Eastern Standard time. I grabbed one and am going to keep trying for a reasonable working hours time with the reschedule function. Hopefully they w…

There was a similar post the other day, and no one has a complete answer, but it seemed like they were not aware of where the test was being taken from even if there is conflicting info coming from LSAC about whether it is okay. I could be wrong th…
-
I think you still have a good shot at admissions. It may come down to your applications being strong though. If you are above and at median for those two factors they're also probably going to be very happy to take you early in the cycle when they…
-
Yeah, I really want a second try at my best score, but I'm hesitant to do it.
-
Also, I am not trying to be harsh, but I just checked my spreadsheet, a 163 is below median at all of those schools. You will need at least a 165 or 166 to convince them to ED your with a full ride I would think. If you are pulling down their GPA n…
-
I will echo that your LSAT needs to be 75th or better. Since your GPA is below 25th that is probably the only way a school admits you ED with full ride. I am not sure what it is about AZ you do not like, but Phoenix is a fast growing and diverse c…

If anyone is available for an hour or two of help with assumptions and main point on RC that would be great. I am between -2 and -4 on RC usually, with main point by big weakness. I'm mid 170's on PTs right now with RC probably 60% of what I get w…
