I would love to stay in California and would be very happy to move from SoCal to NorCal. It’s entirely to do with climate + culture. Also why would I want to move to the complete opposite coast from where my friends and family are that’ll be lonely!…
If you go to UCI, it has the nicest infinity pool and it is heated (or at least it doesnt feel cold on cold days) and it isnt super chlorinated which is great. They have a bin of water polo balls and fins and things like that to train with. They sel…

Negation: It is not the case that the highest point of any volcanic ash cloud will eventually exceed an altitude of 5km.

@"surfy surf" Alright. That makes sense now.
One more obvious question. When they're saying "reason", they're asking for why the argument should be applied, right?
Not really. An appeal to conscience, rather than [an…
I don't have an example from an LSAT pt but this would just be saying something like
"even though all the evidence proves that Bob committed the crime, Bob was abused as a child, so he shouldn't be charged."
Appeal to conscience is just an appeal…

I agree that you should back off on the PTs. I was doing 3 or 4 PTs a week leading up to my first attempt, averaging 174, and scored a 165 on the real thing.
On my second attempt, I took only 1 PT during the two months of …
If I was choosing between the two, I would look into what internships/jobs are available and just base it off of traffic honestly. I would imagine Loyola would have a lot more internships/jobs available considering they're in DTLA. Not sure what's g…

Something you can try to throw in to your plea is that you have to take living expenses into consideration and you were accepted into a school in an area with cheaper living expenses. Or you cannot afford to move out of where you live now bc the liv…
Take a break for at least a few days. You'll start feeling antsy and ready to dive back into the LSAT when your break is over. You're not being "lazy" by taking time off from LSAT studying. You're passively LSAT preparing by giving your brain time t…

FWIW, I visited UCI yesterday and LOVED it. Such an awesome atmosphere.

Are you using the Pacifico fool proof strategy? You should go through the entire game 3x over the span of a week, so you shouldn’t be making silly mistakes by the time you go over it the 3rd time. And you shouldn’t have to FP individual questions.

I'm back for a double-post but something strange happened....
I got an interview request from WashU. The strange part is that I haven't actually paid the LSAC to send my app to them yet... I was polishing up an adden…

@"surfy surf" Yeah, June is disclosed but July is non-disclosed.
But daaaamn, according to LSAC's site now, January, March and June next year are all non-disclosed. It's getting harder to find disclosed times! Yikes.

Wait wait are you guys saying if we can't get into anything beyond T14 it's not worth the time and effort? Texas A&M's statistics for class of 2016 show 85% employment with 80% bar pass rate and salaries ranging from 50k (l…
t12 pretty much guarantees you a high salary and a job in most any city you want. anything lower is regional and employment stats arent high -- as in if you do get a job, you'll only be able to work in the region of the school, and have a high chanc…
You can always contact Spivey consulting and get interview prep from them. It's pricey but if you really want to go to Harvard it would be worth it just to ease the nerves and know what you're walking into.
Also, congrats!
Why would saying "I want to help under-served communities" be a barrier to becoming an attorney? If the field of law you want to practice in serves under-served communities, then that is a good reason to say you want to go to law school. I would und…
As a socal resident, i totally agree. Housing prices in and around major metros have been getting more and more expensive. In cities like irvine, its common for nornal to hover around the high 700k to low million range.
Seriously there are so m…
