@"Lime Green Dot" said: Hi Daniel! Hope 1L has been amazing (probably amazingly hard at least if The Paper Chase is any indication >

@Ashley2018 yes! This is just going to be an unedited information dump so apologies in advance. Overall atmosphere/students - Obviously any comparisons here are based on secondhand knowledge of other schools but my impression is that Cornell is amo…

@WinningHere Its literally in the stem. Which of the following if true MOST weakens, strengthens, etc. You have to evaluate each answer choice in relation to the others. The most ridiculous answer you've ever heard of will be correct if the others …
-
You never attack a premise. Always accept them as true. You are trying to make the conclusion less (or for strengthening, more) likely to follow from the premises, by affecting the relationship between the two. Remember that it is a comparative se…

Practice translation of your stimulus (or really anything you read on the test) Look for something that intuitively must be true When in doubt, negate the answer Practice negating answers I think the first and last points are the most important …

Shoot for a good scholarship, apply to every external scholarship you can, and cover the rest with student loans.

IMO you're going to be sitting there thinking about it anyway, so its not like youre saving significant time if any at all. Its much more common, especially early on to say, "if I'd have drawn that out I might have gotten it right" as opposed to "d…

Any trends?

@"Cant Get Right" Also Kadens is awesome.

@"Cant Get Right" said: Y'all starting on jurisdiction or FRCP? FRCP primarily but we started off with Sibbach and I feel like I never caught up. This guy seems to be pretty notorious here... @"Lucas Carter" is the only 2L who doesn't just l…

@lsat_sus Ugh... make that video for a limited time only access please. I was like 4 drinks in. In fact, disclosure: I was not completely sober. Civ pro has me all fucked up. Also... ...who's agreed to bestow his infinitesimal LSAT wisdom..." …

Killed it! Congrats. Now comes the "fun" part.
-
Congratulations. Killer score.
-
They will see every score, and most schools will say they "consider" them all, but it is largely in an admissions office's interests to treat you as your highest score.
-
Congratulations! On to the next circus that is the applications cycle.
-
Just asking "How'd I get this wrong?" can be unproductively vague for a lot of people. Sometimes it can help to give yourself some prompts to respond to, at least initially. For instance: What was my translation/understanding of the stimulus dur…

@"Lime Green Dot" I still see a distinction between a possibility gap and an absolute gap. I feel (E) is an example of the former. Just wanted to ask you whether "may no longer follow" from the premise (possibility gap) implies "no longer follow…
-
"destroy the argument" ≠ conclusion cannot happen. In fact it still could. It just means the conclusion no longer follows from the premise.

7 here.

the LSAT once again just for personal reasons This is technically not allowed. Right before the exam you affirm that you are taking the test for the sole purpose of gaining admission to law school. That said, as someone eyeballs deep in 1L... …

I took it 7 times. Be smart about how you expend your takes, but above all else... just don't give up.

Whichever can write the stronger, more meaningful letter. Potentially one that will let you see the letter and suggest edits, or at least be open to your suggestions.

@"Cant Get Right" I just realized something... hitting you on DM.

@"Cant Get Right" I'm finishing Getting to Maybe just in time as week 1 assignments are up and apparently I'll never have recreational reading time again.
-
If you can score well on the GRE, have a good GPA, no official LSAT score, and it won't preclude you from applying someplace you want to attend, I'd go GRE. Otherwise do the LSAT. GRE scores dont have to be reported, so benefit seems to go to those …

I highly recommend this. Solid practice to assess your true understanding of the content... and @lsat_sus awesome.

Timing required its own specific work and strategies. You have to practice it. Here's a good starting point. https://classic.7sage.com/why-you-have-to-skip-questions-on-the-lsat/ https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/skip-it/
