An additional point, I don't know what your target schools are or what your GPA is, but I have a friend that got some scholarship aid at George Washington a few years ago with a 159. It is not a bad score and even a little improvement from that wou…

I have heard, though can not personally confirm, that they geolocate your IP address. If you try to take it in Europe they will see that you are not in the USA and bar you from taking it. I do not know that for sure however. In theory you could u…

PM me your weak Q types, maybe we can help each other.

Same, hoping for 178+ with 175-177 PTs as of late. Almost identical, but my LR is -0 to -3 and RC -2 to -5. Need to figure out how to address my weak points ASAP
-
That is tough, glad it worked out well enough, but I would be so upset about being denied to the opportunity to prove my best.
-
Thanks, will do. Will this still be available for a few weeks? I am in pre-October test mode right now but this is something I will prioritize when I can.
-
This is way after the fact, but as an educator I will say that I think your biggest barrier right now is your stress about the process. When you have all the stress and anxiety around the activity it is really hard to 1. Absorb the knowledge you ne…

Thanks so much David, this is super helpful having it all in one place.

@"Future non trad law student" This is well after your post, but I had a room mate in grad school who did a law degree at a school ranked around #100 or lower at that time. They have since come up, they are in the 90's, but they are hardly Harvard…

Similar to @175orelse `s comment, but I am not sure whether I would utilize the videos or not. While I am visual most of the time I read the transcripts of your LSAT video lessons because it is so much faster than slogging through the video. Howev…

I am also interested, but I think the caveat here is that the results are going to depend on intangibles as much as anything else, which means the anecdotal data here is going to be just that, anecdotal. I would anticipate that a person will either…

@ericadelarosa97 @WouldRatherBeEating Thank you both a bunch for that info. The 23rd should be soon enough to let my job know I hope.
-
@kilgoretrout Very glad it worked out for you.
-
@motximotxi Thank you for your response, it was excellent and very helpful. I also sent anonymous emails to my top 6 schools and they confirmed my thoughts on this. I am also struggling with the idea of asking anyone reluctant to serve as a refere…

Extra Background: My main targets are a half dozen lower T14-mid teen schools. I am still narrowing down backups but they will be between #18 and #s 31 I am an extreme super-splitter with a strong grad school GPA, terrible undergrad, and anticip…

I have absolutely no expertise in this, but I would be inclined to agree with LS-AT Walker.

So I really need to let my job know when I am taking time off. All I know is that the test is planned for Thursday October 8th US time and that attempts will be made to accommodate time zones. Well, the evening of the 8th is the morning of the 9th…

I would second discouraging this addendum. Especially if you feel like you do not have a good reason. I will say that feeling ill and having a headache could well be a great reason but, as you said yourself, you don't think it explains things. I …
-
I am, and I think many, many people here are. What is the purpose of the question? Are you looking for a community of people to study with? I think there have been several posts about such groups.
-
Personally I doubt you will remember enough to make much of a difference. I retook a PT by accident from a few months ago recently and did not realize until the LR section where I remembered some annoying problems. I nearly got a couple wrong beca…
-
@kadenktnk said: JY saying that the difference is statistically insignificant but then saying that the standard 4-section is the best predictor....now im really confused Because taking two sections means that your performance is averaged. …
-
I think they need to figure out a future version that is equivalent to the past. The former LSAT obviously advantages those who are better at LR as compared to LG/RC while the current measures all three equally. What bothers me about the Flex vers…
-
@lilpingling I think that is atypical. I first started calculating my possible flex scores while doing 4 sections. I went something like -0 LR, -1 LG, -4 RC, -5 LR. Those are very different Flex scores depending on which LR section is used, check…
-
Wait, Xiany. Just realized it was you. It seems like you're set but I do have that other friend I was telling you about who is also Canadian. She's a bit lower than that though, 160's.

Been doing the same thing with a couple of groups for the October test and it immediately took my PT results from 170ish (167, 169,170, 174 four previous) to 175+ on my last four (176, 177, 175, 177) with BRs between 177 and 180. I think at the 170…
-
Yeah, I was doing that actually, but it only ever showed the one PT. However, I completed another PT yesterday and that seems to have fixed the problem for me. I did have to manually select all the PTs, but the extra step is no problem so long as …
-
So I want to second someone`s thought that it could possibly be ADD. I want to disagree however that it means you need to go straight to a doctor and begin treatment. Even if it is ADHD, (assuming you are scheduled for an OCT/NOCl test) you probab…
-
Yeah, I do not thing that picking a specific PT is the strategy here. I think creating a problem set with a game of each type is the best option. You could create a problem set with 8 games and probably get a pretty good representation of each que…
-
Glad to help! Thinking about these questions and discussing them is the best way to get better.
-
I think this really depends on how you are scoring. I also think a better strategy is to get a BR group together, take the same PTs, and go over the answers together. Much quicker on questions that do not need review than watching several minutes …
