First of all, congratulations on your high level of achievement, no matter where you landed exactly on the real test. In your case, I'd just take a break for a while. Your knowledge clearly isn't the issue and you won't be getting anywhere producti…

Definitely second Notre Dame. Probably Pepperdine and Baylor, as well.

Have you already written a Diversity Statement and/or a Why X Statement? If not, I'd do so, so admissions directors can ease their own concerns, assuming they have them when reading your personal statement. Give them another opportunity to read some…

I second the comment made about UVA, at least relative to other law schools. Honestly, I think Harvard is a bit conservative relative to some of the other top law schools, but that's more anecdotal. Though I guess all of this is, haha.

@doohocho brings up excellent points that I really don't even need to elaborate on. But directly to your question, switching around from curriculum to curriculum isn't necessarily a bad thing, so long as you stick with the one you end up with. I mys…

"Solely" if iffy, and I think for that word alone, you can rightfully eliminate it. After all, the author claims that preserving is crucial to maintaining respect for the government and its authority. In other words, historical preservation is neede…

Nice! Glad to hear it.

@jcylin93 said: So upset. I think I shifted my answers in the last section and ended up with an extra answer (102 total). Unsure whether to cancel or not. T-T As in you ended up with 102 answers? A friend of mine who took this test as well n…

I thought the alleged practice of yield protecting was really only implemented by waitlisting. I don't think they'd want to straight up deny you just because they're thinking you might go elsewhere. The cycle is primarily a numbers game, though so …

Not necessarily the biggest: Flaw Questions that incorporate two flaw, only one (the major flaw you have to attack) being the flaw tying in support and the conclusion.

Interview with UVA: Super laid back (and I had already met the interviewer prior). I opted for a Skype interview when given the choice between that a phone - I just think there's more to gain from a face-to-face interview. Of course, my internet co…

I don't think so either, provided they fit in your plastic bag. I brought an entire box as well.

I actually liked PT 80's color, haha. It's neutral, which goes well with an even number (and 0). It's not THAT bad.

@mk940808 When is your interview? And keep us updated with how it goes and where you end up.
-
@esteerose congratulations!! Was it for a school you were really vying for?
-
I've heard from three of eleven, though one simply asked for an interview (this isn't counting responses regarding the receiving of my application). I submitted my applications around the New Year.
-
Amazing! Congratulations!
-
Really just came here to congratulate you! But I suppose if I were to offer any advice, it'd be to be honest. It might seem like you have to put up a certain facade for what is a top law school, though they'll undoubtedly see through any bull.
-
Okay, so the issue isn't so much getting accustomed to what it's like taking a PT but gauging where you stand. From here on, I'm going to assume that you either decided to or legitimately cannot postpone for another test date. If this is the case, …

@TheMikey said: I think something sufficient would be like 1 RC passage, 1 easy LG, and like 5-10 LR questions. I'd go with this. Keep it on the easy side and obviously do stuff you've done before.
-
That would be cramming, which likely won't serve you well. How many PTs have you taken thus far? If it really is that low, and if postponing is out of the question, I'd recommend taking a retake or two to accustom yourself. Definitely don't take a b…
-
I actually like the idea more of doing one a week and a retake as another or just doing individual sections (with plenty of them being retakes!). Two isn't bad per se, but it's pushing it, especially if you work or go to school at all.
-
For those of you who practiced with old materials how did you cope with the mental and emotional exhaustion of it? Just keep developing your understanding for each section. I myself was in a somewhat similar situation, and while my scores were …

Check out @"Cant Get Right"'s webinar if it's up already. It may not be, but I imagine it will be soon if it's not.
-
Haha, yeah, you're in a great spot for at least a 167. It's never guaranteed, but I think you have a great chance in getting even beyond that.
-
Retakes will be invaluable to your prep, and they're actually tremendously beneficial for anyone. So while you have done irreparable damage, your road to your goal score isn't impossible, just a bit harder, and that's okay. I myself was in a simila…
