@"Alex Divine" My range on newer tests seem to be around 170-172 but on the old Feb tests, 165-169. I am lucky to have some pretty good EC's and LOR's so I am going to build there
-
@"Alex Divine" I am, hopefully, I dont see a drop off from my PT
-
@"Alex Divine" I agree, I have used Powerscore and they prepare you for grouping games quite well, as well as causal reasoning
-
It depends on the school and strength of the cycle. Especially at the top 14 Schools, other factors play a large role in whether you get in. I had a friend get in to Georgetown with a 3.0 and 163 but other things put him over. Granted he had one yea…
-
-15 lol
-
@"Alex Divine" there were six questions on it too lol
-
I will say this. @"Alex Divine" , from the sound of it, this exam was brutal. Maybe I should be glad that I postponed lol
-
I started with a 147 and now I am PT'ing in the mid to high 160's. A lot of people who start off in the 140's get up to the 160's.
-
A lot of people have it it on the head. Also, it depends on the school. If you meet their criteria, you will be fine. If you get a 160 and apply to a school that has a median of 158, you will be fine. Scholarship money may change but even a school l…

It is about time, every other major test for the most part has transitioned
-
Try the negation technique! Turn it into a weaken question!
-
@greenbergcoupons , one last question for you. What are your "safe schools"?
-
@greenbergcoupons , lol and for schools like those (with Fordham as an exception), you probably need both an extremely high ugpa and lsat
-
@greenbergcoupons , I take it you are from New York lol? What's your gpa?
-
@greenbergcoupons no it isn't a negative. A low gpa from a lower grade college would be much more negative lol! Where are you applying?
-
Yes but I often get caught in the Shell Game. Usually, I am getting about 2 or 3 wrong on the LR as a whole and it's usually those types of questions.
-
That is a really tough situation. It is even worse because you can't go get a masters degree with that sort of GPA. I will say that with a 165 or so, you MIGHT be able to get into a mid tier law school and most likely a lower tier school like Charle…
-
@greenbergcoupons It's the idea that if one is in the 25th percentile or below, in either the LSAT or UGPA, that person must put themselves in the 75th percentile of the other. It is a good guideline but it's not necessarily as critical as it used t…
-
I would assume it would be determined by number of applicants, strength of applications, and trend. Obviously, admission standards have went down a great deal in the past few years. The person I spoke to from George Mason said that this was "the bes…
-
@"Alex Divine" also the 25th/75th rule really applies in competitive years. From everyone I have spoken with, this isn't a very competitive year. So I would say he would be in a good situation , as long as he does not blow it completely
-
Easily
-
I agree with a lot of what people are saying. However, I feel like the 50's were much more difficult
-
For me, four months was plenty of time to go from 147 to 165. However, I ended up postponing because I felt like I could do better and improve much more over the next four months. It depends on what your weaknesses are, as well. If logic games are y…
-
It depends on the individual. Personally, I carry a 22 credit schedule so I can no longer put 6 hours in but my Econ curriculum does benefit me at some level. Ultimately, it just depends
-
@montaha.rizeq what are the disadvantages
-
Compared to older tests , very but not in comparison to other 70's PT's
-
I feel your pain. Try the lg bible and lr bible. My diagnostic was a 147 4 months ago and right now I am sitting between 161-165 (with the exception of outliers in both directions) I am considering postponing as well but I know if I buckle down that…
-
@"Alex Divine" I haven't really gotten the chance to do it.
-
PT 55, 53, and 52 have been the most brutal for me. 55 was my cold diagnostic, 53 and 52 have been taken in the last 24 hours. Mid-late 2000's were difficult
-
Alright, it is just kind of nerve wrecking. Tuesday is the last day to postpone and I am thinking about changing my target to the high 160's, in order to position myself better. I have previously stated that I am not really looking at a lot of top s…
