  • @"ashley.tien" If you haven't seen it and don't mind looking, 75.1.19 has a similar feel to it
  • @Help2222 said: We could also assume that the reason non-Markland students decreased is because the tuition increased. Well... we could, but that would not be supported by the stimulus. That assumption is attractive, and I'm surprised this …
  • I agree with both @noonawoon and @"LOWERCASE EVERYTHING", but I'll add my opinion that if flex continues on as long as we're expecting, we should expect (or at least not be suprised by) some changes. They've already started straying from the "middl…
  • @"ashley.tien" said: Per Capita means the total cost divided by number of students; all info we have is just percentage of non-markland has decreased, so how can we get any info about the amount of money each student pays? We don't need to k…
  • Students from outside Markland pay twice as much tuition Students from outside Markland account for ⅔ enrollment Over past 10 years academic standards have risen Proportion of students from outside Markland has dropped to around 40% A.…
  • They will wait until the minimum specified number of letters are received. Your app won't go complete until this happens.
  • Examine how the two answers differ. Clarify the argument and the specific task the stem is giving you. Skip and come back... let your brain toss it around while you go be productive someplace else.
  • I'd start with the CC games, then move to either types or go by PT sets... adjust as necessary. Do whatever games you're working on until you can flow through them with speed and accuracy. Put it away. Do it again a day or two later, then a week,…
  • I agree with @goforbroke in that I think it's not in your best interests to run timed sections or PT before finishing the CC. Focus on the lessons and do a good BR and review on the problem sets. Make sure you understand before moving on. If you'…
  • Let me take a look. Aside: as opposed to just asking for an explanation, consider explaining your thoughts on this question, and where you're getting tripped up. I think it would be beneficial for you as well as the for rest of the community. Edi…
  • This is a pretty difficult question... likely the curve breaker for that section. The shift is hard to see because of our own bias. OPA: Anarchy - absence of government Bowers: Anarchy - chaos Target: Our assumption that anarchy = chaos. if t…
  • I agree with @noonawoon and @Logician in that it is likely unnecessary. In addition, this is a nice thing to keep in your pocket - in the event of a WL or extended time with no decision you have a legit reason to contact them and have your file pull…
  • I'd call in. If you use the form, it'll take a bit for them to get back to you. If you call, you'll be on hold but should be able to get them to cancel and reschedule/issue a coupon. There is a lot of inconsistency over the phone though so be sure…
  • Holy crap I thought this one was a smoker. Anyone else? A letter submitted to the editor of a national newsmagazine was written and signed by a Dr. Shirley Martin who, in the text of the letter, mentions being a professor at a major North Ameri…
  • Congratulations! Must feel great to have a school like that locked in!
  • There are good reasons for either approach. I think it comes down to what works best for you. I used to get super stressed about it as I found myself naturally moving from AC selection straight into the next stimulus, which would then cause me to …
  • Good job, congrats!
  • @UTLawWannabe said: Thank you so much! What is the best way to do the wrong answer journal? Write out as much as you can. Get as deep as you can. On a curve breaker that gave me problems, I could easily get to 2 pages for the one question. …
  • Given This requires disclosure of all traffic offenses for which the penalty was a fine actually paid of $200 or more. and in which I paid $250 for the citation. I'd say that pretty clearly requires disclosure. Don't ever try to justify…
  • Deep review after BR. IMO that is where the majority of improvement comes from. Ironically most people don't do this. At the very least a comprehensive wrong answer journal... like not just a list of questions.
  • Just call. They should be able to reset it while you're on the line with them.
  • Sorry, no help with your question but can you explain "verifiers"? We don't have anything like this that I'm aware of in the US. Like they want to check that whatever you used for your PS is factually accurate? What if it's not event based?
  • @"LOWERCASE EVERYTHING" I think you were adequately clear... sorry if it seemed like I was implying otherwise. I'm fairly certain I agree with you on all counts. If I'm understanding correctly (and I've been known not to) my objective was to build …
  • @"Jonathan Wang" I'm loving this discussion... would like to hear your take if you have the time!
  • @audeamus300 said: @canihazJD uh.. technically, yeah I guess you could do that. But I think that just defeats the purpose of diagramming. Diagramming can help you see different ideas more clearly and link/chain them together to draw valid infe…
  • RC can come from anywhere. The killer passage this month was an NYT article. Economist is good, Scientific American, Nature, etc.... maybe if you can get you hands on some academic journals, but the best source is other RC sections. I just worked …
  • @noonawoon said: I second that you should focus on newer games if you're short on time specifically. If you're taking the LSAT in like a year, starting 1-35 is totally fine. Newer games are a lot more representative of what you're likely to ge…
  • @"LOWERCASE EVERYTHING" said: context matters, and i wouldn't always treat "is" as a group 2 indicator like "must." for instance, "a prime example of a civil rights activist is martin luther king jr." you can't diagram this as "civil …
  • Someplace ED can help if your numbers are low, is on the back end. At schools where you get kicked to RD, and they either end up hitting medians with room to spare or need to pull from the waitlist, someone who originally applied ED looks really go…
  • Yes, the school you assign the letter to will get an update regardless of whether it is a new letter or existing but newly assigned letter.
