I would say it’s not ideal, but still very capable of producing great outcomes. If you have something they need, they’ll take you. Worst case you’re out the application fee.
-
Just get on lawhub. That's the exact interface you'll be using.

Assuming your current 16x is good to go for your target school, yes it works and retakes with the intended sole use of scholly negotiations are common. I inadvertently went from $$ to $$$$+ at a couple schools in last cycle by gaining 4 points way …

Not in NYC so can't help with a specific venue, but I used a hotel for a couple flex tests. Make sure there is ethernet available and verify if you need your own cable. At the very least, ask about wifi reliability or check your own hotspot recept…

That's a f'ed up stem. I don't think this is representative of anything you'll see on a test now. Let me give it a shot: M: It is almost impossible to find someone 85-90 who primarily uses their left hand Q: 70-90 years ago children were …

A January score is perfectly fine for this cycle as far as timeline. People are pretty worried about being early because of the increase in early applicants and high scores, but we don't know if that equates to higher numbers for the cycle or affec…

Obviously a higher score would help for T14 but it also sounds like your background could help you outperform your numbers if you craft a good app. I'd apply anywhere you'd attend + peer schools.
-
@miriaml7 It was just as beneficial for me! I think you just have to get used to the fact that these are tricks the test writers will employ to increase the difficulty of a question. Throwing in conditionals that are unnecessary - most planetary …

I feel like I’m waiting for Christmas... and I haven’t even taken the rest of the others yet.
-
Yes you can withdraw without issue. Just don’t be a dick about it. An R&R is often the smarter move if you don’t achieve the outcomes you were after. There’s a good chance you’ll be able to use a January score this cycle too... I applied as soo…

@creid7498 said: How much of a boost is the single score would you say in comparison to two scores? Negligible. High score is what matters. No one at medians is getting donged because they have a lower score from a previous take. I mean yo…
-
If you can absolutely exclude needing that 163 for an application, as in it might as well not exist for you application purposes, and it is not on the higher end of your range, I'd get rid of it. We all know high score matters, but you can't rule o…

Let me give this one a shot because it's a great question to try and explain even if you can get it right under time. I ran it in a problem set first then BR'ed to get the full effect. Hopefully got it right o_O. My stimulus breakdown: PB hav…

Nice writeup. Congrats!
-
@nw_39796 it's varied, but seems like the pool of tests/sections they draw from has been increasing. If you listen to powerscore's podcasts on each flex test they indicate what tests were used and how many combinations overall were possible.
-
Kind of hangs on your scores vs goals. January isn't great but I'd still say great outcomes are likely with the right numbers. Some schools pitch that their deadlines are all that matters. The increase everyone's panicking over only means a lot mor…
-
Data seems to suggest you actually incurred a penalty for ED an NYU in past cycles. 3 points under both your average and their median? Supposed ED penalty vs. apply early with a 167 vs. feb potentially no longer splitting medians? For me a retake …
-
Concur with @Tori98765 77 and 88 are good ones. 88 has some really good LR as well.
-
...I can focus on drilling the Newer/Newest Logic Games?? I'd save at least 70's and 80's for full PTs.
-
@MEGANWELCH97 definitely the core curriculum here. Invest in it, don't rush through. After drills, watch the explanations and read other's comments. That will give you a solid foundation to build on, then your PT's will be able to guide you to are…
-
@MEGANWELCH97 first please don't take this the wrong way. Don't apply with a 149. Just straight up don't do it. You have excellent and admirable goals but I think you need to take a more pragmatic approach. You could have a 4.33 GPA and even a 15…
-
@MEGANWELCH97 said: Is there hope for someone like me with a killer GPA and a teaching background to go to a place like Harvard? Yes. A tight GPA is already a huge part of the solution in the bank. I don't know what your prep history is but…

Amazing score, congrats! Any words of wisdom?
-
60+ tests is an accomplishment in itself. Awesome score. Congratulations!
-
Congratulations!
-
Holy crap, good job!
-
Congratulations!
-
Yes it the function is available. Whether it helps or not is up to you. It's like the stem/stim first question... some people swear by it, and others brand you a heathen for asking about it. If it works for you, it works. To date tests have not …

Thanks for the responses everyone. Have responded to everyone above this post and anyone who messaged me up to now. Will be updating as necessary.

Replying as a temporary cutoff, pending comms with everyone who's commented above and messaged me. So, I was not expecting that much traffic that quickly... glad I checked back!
