In the unlikely event that people are waiting with baited breath to hear how my first semester went and what I thought was useful as 1 L prep you need to wait longer.
Looking forward to this actual detailed post …
Treat it like a regular PT and time it, then BR thoroughly. I think it will definitely be helpful to also think about why you made certain mistakes during exam.
@Emily2122 I almost forgot, these articles might also be somewhat of use to you in addressing that.

I think I'm going to just apply a few days before scores release to be on the safe side. Does anyone know how long it takes for schools to receive your LSAT score?
Depends. For example, Chicago took 11 days from my date of s…
It's based on the date of submission so your complete date can be after the application deadlines.
Example: Scroll to the "When does Harvard Law School begin accepting applications? When is the deadline to apply?" section of this page https://hls.h…
The advice I got from info sessions with some T14 deans was that they actual want to see those kinds of work experience. They said that a lot of applicants leave out their part-time retail experience for fear of including extraneous info on their ap…
I think it depends. Are you below both medians? Also Yale is the one school when the time you apply does not affect your chances according to Yale adcomms and confirmed by powerscore's analysis of lsn profiles.
Hi Kyle, you can use the LSAT Analytics tab under Resources to keep track of the LR questions and see the star rated difficulty as well as the type of questions that you are missing to better investigate why the scores are so different. As you allud…

@username_hello you're gonna see a lot of different opinions on this. Other users utilize the skipping strategy very effectively and found great success with it. Another sizable portion of us find that it's better to just answer everything in the fi…

I think the first week or so of January isn't too bad, but later than that is when it starts going downhill. I don't think today vs. like the 31st through the 2nd or so is much different though.
Agreed, a lot of admission o…

Boy, thank you for your response! I've already taken the entire 7sage course so I'm just drilling logic games and will be starting to drill timed practice tests just after Christmas. Naturally I'm not counting on a good …

It's not 100% necessary to do for each school, but I do think that it is helpful most of the time. Generally, you should always write any optional essays that they list. If they give you a…

took PT 72 this past week. Man I got pummeled. Tough LR, RC, and LG. Anyone else feel this PT was really hard? Even with the curve, I still felt it was really really hard.
Yep I honestly believe PTs 72-77 were the tough…

35 minutes timed as part of the original PT

Agreed with @MissChanandler . Also some schools like USC apparently only have 5 LSAT slots on their drop-down menu so I guess that's your upper limit as a general guide lol
