@puffinbd - I think something to consider is that if they register for November, but do score well in October, they won't get full refund if they decide to drop out of the November test. But if you don't mind risking losing that $ then it would be …

Make sure you confirm with each school what the latest LSAT test they accept is, they usually say this in the application instructions. Also check the regular admission deadlines. I think if you're applying really close to the deadline you may be at…

Hey Matt. I would caution you of using up practice tests too fast, especially in the beginning of your studying - since there's a finite amount, and the a good 1/4 of them are used in the CC. The idea is that you take a diagnostic, then go through …

In that case, I don't think you have anything to worry about. Evening programs were designed for people in similar situations.

@aszane21 In reference to your question about accounting for time in between undergrad and grad school, I personally don't think you need to address this. The Admissions committee will clearly see on your resume and transcripts that that was your su…

It does seem a little odd that you are building a startup-and applying to law school, are you planning on juggling both your startup and law school, or doing part-time law school? If you are worried that this would raise questions, I would encourage…

In my opinion, you definitely should not cancel your 162. There is no shame is retaking the test if you are not satisfied. If you retake and score a 170+, and explain in an addendum that your first score doesn't reflect your ability based on practic…

I would suggest that if you are having an employer write a LOR for you, then that job should be on your resume, otherwise that may raise a question mark. I think it's important to remember that just because something doesn't seem "impressive" doesn'…

If you plan on retaking the LSAT anyways then I don't see any harm in doing another writing sample. However, I don't think it is possible to retake the writing sample by itself but I could be mistaken. - and if you do retake it, it will be a complet…

" I think I have decently good reasons and evidence for how I have changed the situation since I was an undergraduate student" Does this mean how you've changed since graduating college? This sounds more like something that would be a a part of your…

Seeing as the diversity statement is as completely optional statement, then I think it's totally okay not to submit one, especially if you don't have something completely different to say that isn't anywhere else in the application. I've also been d…

Totally in the same boat so I empathize - it sucks to me right at the median one day...and then 2 points under the median the next.

Yes! If you go to your LSAC page. then in the Credential Assembly Service section click on. Manage Institutions and Transcripts. then on the right side of the page, click on Academic Summary Report. If your transcripts have been processed, your CAS…

@kvitka22 I totally understand your concern! I have been out of undergrad for 6 years. I ended up emailing a poetry/writing professor I had my senior year. I essentially reintroduced myself - said what class I took (ENG 219) and in what year, and ex…

From what I have heard from admissions consultants, you are absolutely right. If the recommender offers for you to read the letter, then it is totally fine. By waiving your right to review, it's just making it so you can't request to see the letter …

@sanchezeric821 - I would suggest you stay away from full timed tests for the time being. Think of learning this test like learning to ride a bike or learning to play a musical instrument. You need to develop a fool-proof foundation. That is what th…

@"Selene Steelman" Thank you so much for your response!

@Mike_Ross Thanks so much for your comment, it certainly helps with my confidence in regards to the Diversity Statement. Also I wanted to say I really appreciated the post you made awhile back about your reflections on your 1L year at Harvard, I'm s…

I think it really depends on what schools you are applying to. I think usually if your score and gpa are above the medians of a given school then you have a good shot at scholarship money. But it also comes down to the individual school and how ofte…

Your application will include all of your complete transcripts, so they will see the 4.0 that you graduated with. You should also include on your resume your degree granting institution GPA. But if you feel you need to explain why your grades were l…

You need to specify what question you are referring to.
-
I feel like you should only cancel if your score was like 10+ points below your average and you're super embarrassed by it. Like if you've been consistently scoring above a 165, but you got a 150 due to issues. 90th percentile is still very good - I…

I was looking at a schools website the other day and when I went to watch a video tour they had me give my contact info and other information. About 10 minutes later I got an email with an invitation to sign up for an online info session. I wonder i…
-
based on your numbers it seems like you have a pretty solid foundation. with 5-6 weeks until test day. Have you done any full timed practice tests? I would strongly advise you to start doing full Practice tests followed by Blind Reviews. I would rec…

Yes if we talk about the actual game types or any question types and it gets back to LSAT we will be in trouble.
-
If you don't mind me asking, where is your GPA in terms of the school's median? This will also play into getting scholarship money. I feel like if both your LSAT and your GPA are at the 75th percentile for that school then you have a good shot at ge…
-
There are plenty of resources which list 25th/Median/75th percentiles for LSAT and GPA. the fact that you have a masters degree isn't going to matter too much, but maybe will be taken into consideration. There are definitely some schools out there t…

I have found that when it comes to Flaw questions, they seem to be more difficult in more recent tests than in the earlier tests featured in the CC. They've tended to become much more descriptive and abstract, and less mechanistic. In other words ha…

I think it may be a good idea to put in parentheses after the first abbreviation what it stands for, then abbreviate only after that.

Hey Autumn. I would recommend that you look into working with one of the editors on 7sage through the "unlimited editing package" I think a lot of times we think our story is boring and run of the mill, but that's because we've lived it, so it's bor…
