HYS does need-based aid. If your finances are so grim, HYS will help you out.

If you are accepted to HYS, you should go to HYS. There are exceptions to this rule but not many. No matter how grim your financial circumstances may be, they probably should not count as an exception for the vast majority of applicants.

A way I understood it: to negate a conditional statement, negate the relationship between the sufficient and necessary conditions, not the sufficient or necessary terms themselves.
There are 'polar opposites' and there are 'logical opposites.' For LSAT/logic purposes, we are primarily concerned with logical opposites.
To illustrate logical opposites with percentages:
All A are B
100% of A are B
Some A are not B (logical op…
If possible, it's best to have to report only a single LSAT score on your applications. Under the circumstances, I see no reason for you to take the February and keep your score.

This is a really good opportunity. Have you talked to any alums? I'd try to network a little beforehand if you have time. Be super-friendly and engaging and have some good stories ready. Maybe ask for course recommendations…
Yes, without question. Schools want to know that you haven't seen your LORs, especially if you're applying to competitive schools.
With the way the LSAC does LORs, there's no way to mix them up unless you mislabel them.

Probably not! Haha. Still, I've heard through the grapevine that you can leverage money from other schools against Yale if you…

Both terms seem to be able to function as 'causal links,' by which I mean they can both indicate some sort of causal relationship between two distinct phenomena.
I will need to look at the specific questions when I'm not on my phone to know exactly…

All A are B.

I've heard that students with more than one major outperform their numbers all the time in law school admissions. The five year degree thing might not look great, though.
You should definitely try for all T6, depending on your LSAT score.
Cambridge packets sort them by type:
Must Be True
Most Strongly Supported
Cannot Be True
Necessary Assumption
Sufficient Assumption
Strengthen
