To phrase it politely, they probably don't know much about law school admissions. That or they are trying to be nice. I'm not sure which I would say is more likely, tbh. No one is 100% at YHS, realistically. But if you're looking for an example of …

Depends on the game, but for In/Out games specifically I recall a lot of inexhaustible games due to all the conditional logic. Some In/Out games can definitely be mostly/completely exhausted, though.

Speed is a function of accuracy--I whine this to everyone all the time. The best way to increase your speed at this stage, imho, is to continue to drill diligently and intelligently. Continue to finds ways to increase your accuracy/understanding of …

I've read that an interview is typically a good sign, but that you should still not read too much into it. Be confident, informed, and personable. I imagine if you prepare like you did for the GT interview, you'll be fine.

@cstrobel said: OP, Yale Law has a blog where they do a P.S. Bootcamp that would be really helpful. It shows things from their perspective, so you'll know how to say your truth without running the risk of it misconstrued or misvalued. Asha's…

Don't decline on principle. I don't know how most adcomms treat that but I would take it as a lack of confidence at best.

Yeah speed is a function of accuracy, or so I'm told.

Do you immediately read for arguments when you approach LR stimuli? Do you skip questions to return to them later?

@stephenharrelson08 said: Its been 8 months of having “faith in myself” and I haven’t gotten anywhere hardly. Going to a crappy third tier law school is not worth it. I looked into it and most (70+%) of their graduates are unemployed after 6 m…

@username said: I have exactly the same problem. I took the last few weeks to sulk, but I'm going to retake this summer so it's mid-day. Not much else you can do beyond RX sleep aides. I realize some people swear by melatonin supplementation b…

@lsatplaylist said: So you've run lots of searches but no luck yet? State bars and law firms might be helpful organizations as well. Maybe. Honestly, doesn't seem to be much out there for me (because I'm white). I've been sending out emails …

Chicken, rice, skim milk, wheaties, vegetables, some fruit and stuff. :P Oh, look into 'sous vide' if you aren't great about making meals every single night. This will change your outlook on food if you aren't big into cooking. https://upload.wiki…
