if you really want to go to the wedding and tjr timing conflicts but need to retake based on your July score your only other option for the upcoming cycle would be November. Check what the latest lsat accepted is for the schools you are applying to …
To elaborate can they review your file before your November score even if they say they consider the November lsat and base their decision off of that ?

It took a month. June 6th - July 3rd. I put in two hours a day on AR before id go to work, trying to master all four games in one PT each day. Now, I work for the USPS so when I'm out delivering the mail I get t…

I'm curious about this topic too. I think it's different in Canada vs the US as we only have 19 law schools and there is no definitive ranking of which school is "better". Most people I've talked to have said that you should g…

Any ideas on how to get quicker on Reading Comprehension? What techniques have you used that may be helpful for me?
I totally agree with the advice that @"Paul Caint" provided abo…

I’ve gone back and forth on this as well. I currently live in Atlanta and have a great job here but I don’t want to go to law school here nor do I want to practice law here. I’m focusing my efforts on schools in a Florida …

This is a challenging, but crucial decision for the vast majority of applicants. Attending a school that is regionally competitive (generally T40-50) can be a strong option for those without Big Law aspirations. I personall…
I have the ultimate but if you haven’t gotten anything yet I would get the ultimate plus if you are looking to move up the most. If you end up upgrading later it won’t be worth it . Both courses are pretty comparable the main diff being that with th…
Funny you say mulling ... I've used that word like a million times with this decision. It makes logical sense apply where you want to work = networking/reputation of school =employment chances.It's more of a last resort option. thanks for the feedba…

Read slower.
That might seem counterintuitive, but on RC people have a tendency to try to read the passage too fast to "save time." However, if you read the passage too fast then you won't retain any of it, and then yo…
Each lr question type in 7sage has a problem set ; you could do the ones that are giving you a hard time or briefly review each section. As for doing a pt every other day It could cause burn out . The goal is to see improvement but that doesn’t nece…
When I started doing rc with focus on timing my section avg went down ; try to practice with untimed sections in between as a buffer and also anticipate what they might ask while you read . You can annotate / underline but don’t make it the sole foc…
Hey - your current score and your target score have quite a gap and you should expect to do on or a bit below what you are currently pting. A few point increases maybe be possible (2 and a half weeks away ) from the July exam . That being said I th…
Keep notes of trends / issues / weaknesses as you take pts . Isolate areas of weakness and take time to br pts. Some people think taking more pt = higher score , not the case and a waste of pts.
Depends on what type of carelessness - is it due to rushing ? Is it because you aren’t understanding the question and missing key details / indicators ?is it because you are zoning out when going over the question ? Try to do some sets untimed and f…
We all have doubts on the lsat journey - many have quit , but your ability to tackle the Lsat will be to push past the limits imposed on yourself .flaw questions are subjectively harder . Maybe take a break from Lsat studying (day or 2 ) don’t compa…
Few questions to answer here . In terms of the low gpa / disability you could account for this in your application but don’t make it the sole focus . For Lsat - you can definitely improve and a few points can make a difference (but do you have the t…
Since you started from the 140s the gains you made are a lot - I have seen some people plateau after retaking . But that being said if you still feel like you want to retake and have the potential to do better exhaust your options - also check out t…

@keets993 can OLSAS get your letters of recommendation and transcript through the LSAC? One of my recommenders was an adjunct professor, so I'm not sure if he still has access to his school email if I need him to upl…
Are you relying on your inution or are you solving them by looking at the logical structure of the argument (valid / invalid argument form ) sa and na questions are more lawgic heavy

I would say focus your energy on the lsat and your Law application.
I agree with this. A law school application is no joke and takes a lot of time and effort. I am a little bit confused by …
Hey , having a grad degree is definitely great - having original research via a thesis is even better to set you apart . If you’re only going to boost your Law application and no other reason I don’t think you’ll get the return on it . I looked into…
The common suggestion is to drill the concepts using pts 40 and below keep in mind the newer format of the tests (lr /rc mainly ) newer pts should be reserved strictly for pting. Figure out how many points you need to move up this all depends on you…
