@jacqueline.l.landry Also, BR them with a partner, that is a very important step. It does not do you any good to just take questions that are harder than usual unless you are able to gain new understanding of them. Lean on a partner with complemen…
I came to also recommend 88, it was discussed in a post recently, but I really felt that taking the 3 most recent tests made me better at the LSAT. The hardest questions on those tests are hard for a different reason than many earlier tests in that…

So I would say relax about it. Being STEM is a great way to get into law. Law schools are looking for a diverse set of people, opinions, and academic backgrounds. With that said, foreign educated applicants do typically un…
Also, will there be a way to submit comments on the course under the videos/lessons? I would love to share/get thoughts on requisite mens rea for a given statute and states that find anyone who harms another in the commission of a crime to be guilt…

Hi all!
I’m taking the Jan 2021 FLEX. I’ve completed the core curriculum and have now moved on to taking PTs. I’m curious to know if others who are signed up for FLEX are taking full PrepTest or simulating the FLEX with onl…

Timeline question. It is getting late here in Asia, what time in what time zone will submissions close? I would prefer to get some…
I think another thing that will be happening is schools trying to sift through the higher than usual LSAT scores. Right now, early in the cycle, high LSAT scores are up, which means all the top schools and then the next tier and middle tier schools…

Hello, I wanted to ask for advice about applying in the 2020 or 2021 cycle.
I would mostly agree with @noonawoon but it is very dependent upon your goals. If you do not care about a T50 program you could potentially apply t…
@bellahyeon14 I think the first thing to do is skip any question you feel stuck on immediately. Skip it, put it out of your mind. Some people do a time thing, more than 30 or 40 seconds and move on every time. I do not know that that is best ove…
My understanding is that Georgetown is definitely easier to get into than other T14's, even Cornell. They're also the only one that had been bumped out of the T14 this decade because their stats are lower.
@samanthahuang98 I think it must depend upon the scholarship and school, given the OP's question. I thought I had looked up specialty scholarships at NYU for a friend (who got a freaking 180, so she's probably set anyway) the other day, but it migh…
Apply first, then do your scholarship essays if possible. I think usually scholarship essay deadlines are in like January or something. Maybe NYU is different, but first you have to get in to even be eligible for a scholarship.
@BinghamtonDave @2ndTimestheCharm I am with both of you on this, and thank you so much for the book recommendation. Beyond just preparing for classes so you can hit the ground running, you have to opportunity to make sure you really want to spend t…

Having a bad day.
This is literally just your anxiety. There is zero reason not to apply. Any time before Thanksgiving is considered early. You have incredible stats and incredible odds at any school.

@gluckmachnich10 I was not in exactly the same situation as you, but I was an incredibly consistent scorer. In the five weeks before the test I took 9 PTs and 7 of them were between 174 and 177, the other two were a 173 and 178. I felt pretty good…
I have heard that generally a gap of more than 6 months should be addressed, but I am not sure that is true during this pandemic. I bet the question has been or will be answered on a podcast soon, but it has not been on one I have heard. Hopefully…
I love that about the 7 sage community, people are all in this together despite entering a famously competitive field. Honestly, if I were a law school admissions officer I think I would love to recruit directly from the forums here. There is so m…
@jgotlb18 Please go ahead and log into LawHub and do a test or a bunch of sections on it before the exam. It definitely threw me off the first time or two I did that, but I did get used to it. I am very glad I didn't experience their site and font…
I used a 2 year old laptop that is literally falling apart. Like, the case is cracking apart and pieces have come off. It was definitely not what I intended, but the new one I had sent to me got held up for several weeks in a container in Miami. …
Keep that confidence up everyone and don't stress during the security procedures. This is your moment you have been waiting for. Take hold and don't let go.
If you submit your transcripts they will make a decision based on the data they have from the transcripts. You will, I assume, still need to submit proof of graduation/grades before you matriculate. The school would reserve the right to revoke you…
Scrolling through the predictor I think you have better odds than you think even with your scores. Will and Mary 19%
George Mason 27%
North Carolina 30% (not on your list but probably should be with those odds)
W&L 31%
Wake Forest 38%

You could look at some of the lower ranked schools here that still shop up top 50 in ATL rankings.
Tennessee is ranked in the 60's this year in US News but ATL has them as the 41st …
