I'm a reverse splitter, but absolutely…going from 162 to 170 by June is possible. There are people who are probably trying to see that improvement in time for February (not that I'd recommend that!). Take it one PT at a time--and don't rush through …
I wouldn't. A single C+ in your freshman year of college (in math, especially) shouldn't be a big deal. An addendum will probably just draw attention to it.

@cal270 Honestly I think a -12 curve would be reasonable.
What does -12 mean? If you get 12 wrong you get a certain score?
a -12 curve means that you can get 12 wrong and stil…
Not generally. I used to do this more frequently, but I then started skipping more during LR. Now, if I find that I need to reread the question (not simply to double-check something, but actually reread it in its entirety), I simply skip. It's sped …
From what I've heard, it's a pretty short conversation (15ish minutes). They'll probably ask "why law," "why Harvard," and, potentially, questions related to your resume or personal statement.
I'd put it in a section under Volunteer/Service. For instance, on my resume, I have 3 sections: Education (my undergrad), Prof. Experience (jobs & paid internships), and Activities & Interests (further broken down into community service, bus…

You can see 82 if you follow his/her directions. It's split up into the 4 sections (you can't see experimental) where your registrations are listed.
I think you need to shorten your essay. I've never "manually" double-spaced, but it sounds as though the result is that there is less space between the lines. They'll notice.

@cal270 Thanks for your response. I am still a little unsure though, because I am much more interested in them knowing about my graduate level work, but at the time that I will apply, it will not be published (if it is to be …
I think you should definitely include this on your resume.
To my knowledge, people will put the topic of their thesis or other major papers (for undergrad, at least) right under the line about their bachelor's degree. If it's not related to law, I …
I'm retaking in December and plan to restart studying on the 26th or 27th. I'm in school full-time so I don't have tons of time, but I have a relatively good sense of what I need to work on, and I think the time off will be good. I'm also using this…
I second what @Mellow_Z said. It almost certainly won't affect your admissions decision, and they likely wouldn't find out on their own, but you should disclose.
@"Paul Caint" I totally feel you on hating the uncertainty. I'm now thinking back to all these questions and desperately trying to remember what I chose and what my reasoning was (aka trying to blind review without even having the test in front of m…
@"Paul Caint" you aren't the only one! I'm also really disappointed with how things went this morning, and I'm already in the process of signing up for December. I'll be watching this topic to see what responses you get, but as of now, I'm thinking …
I'm experiencing this somewhat; my LG performance is strangely improving but RC and LR (typically my strongest; I often got -0 here) are dropping. I feel less focused and my mind drifts as I read. I'm also getting over a cold so that's contributing …
I would include it. Don't devote a ton of real estate to it on the page, but a line describing the nature of the work/the community that the organization supports could be good.
I've seen people list charity 5ks and one day volunteer events on resu…
From what I've heard, a cancellation is no big deal. Stuff happens, and admissions committees will likely understand…people get sick, people have family emergencies--these are all legitimate excuses to cancel one's LSAT score. Yours is legitimate, t…
I've been struggling with RC on more recent PTs but I've had some recent improvements, so I'll share what's helped!
First off, we have the same diagnostic score and are scoring not too far off from each other at the moment--I fluctuate between high…

PT 81 should appear in the Syllabus very soon. Many people have already received PT 81 from Amazon. It seems they released it well before the September 4 projection. After you take it, you might wish that was not the …
