@tylerdschreur10 said: On a related topic, is there any way to retroactively apply a fee waiver? I've already applied to several schools and paid the fee (Chicago, and Georgetown off the top of my head). I'm curious if I magically scored a 175…

Schools just want to know who you are. If you are volunteering things to the public online, you should be comfortable with the idea of anyone and everyone seeing whatever it is you volunteer. If you look like an ass on your Facebook, well then stop …

@"Seeking Perfection" said: I'm saying that I don't know how exactly it works(probably something like that). However, I know what the effect is. Batches of people do sometimes get fee waivers a couple days before the score release which only s…

"Combine" rules in sequencing games. Rules: 1. A-B 2. B-C These two rules can be combined and more efficiently represented as: A-B-C In the trickier games, knowing individual sequences as they are, separate from the master "combination" sequen…

@Stothentothek said: I contacted the admissions depts I was applying to directly, and both schools told me that in the absence of academic LOR's, professional references would be accepted. Both schools also requested a statement explaining my …

I would say it depends on what you stole, and also why you did what you did. Did this run-in with the law somehow make you want to become a lawyer? It would be okay to write about how this event has somehow set you on your path to law school, but di…

@LCMama2017 said: This thread is a year old but I was wondering in anyone ever updated the flowchart? It looks pretty cool and I would like to use it. Thanks. I have exhaustive 'checklists' for LR and LG. They're much more streamlined and …
-
Doesn't 7sage have LR packets sorted by question type? That's where I'd start. Do a bunch of questions of the same type and your brain will begin to subconsciously, and then consciously, recognize what the question type wants you to do. You should…
-
Start by reading for arguments: conclusions, premises, how they interact. Also, you should know exactly what every question type wants from you. Sometimes, for example, it wants you to find an appropriate conclusion ('Must be True').

@zmeeker91 said: @Mitchell-1 One simple question: Would this group receive the scores they do without the extra time? I can say with high degree of certainty that no, the group probably wouldn't. Isn't that the whole point of an accommod…

@"Seeking Perfection" said: I would say 10 in 10 is a good idea. That said, it is a measuring stick not really a goal. I would usually do the first 10 in about 10 minutes and check my watch around then. Therefore, if I was slower I knew I…

@ekdonachie said: @goingfor99th Thank you for the support! Good luck on apps! Although it sounds like you are slaying the LSAT game. Haha, haven't heard that before but thank you! Best of luck to you too.

@ekdonachie said: @goingfor99th A 154 meaning that is the best I could hope for if my test was a disaster. My target score is 160. Ohh, I see. It sounds like you will be okay, honestly.

@newellnyc said: I know them all fairly well. My professional work involves the election of judges. But perhaps a direct employer is better? @"Alex Divine" said: The absence of academic LOR won't seem suspect at all, especiall…

If you're non-traditional, you may be alright. How do you know the "judges and prominent legal types"? Through work?
-
If you had to guess what your LR scores will be, what would your guess be? -2 LG typically but you have no idea how you felt? I'm not sure what to make of that. Sounds like test anxiety. With that said, it's hard to pinpoint a score for someone PT…

@Kayyyyyyy said: The fee waivers don't seem to be based on only stats alone. I've seen threads where people who have both lower LSAT scores and lower GPAs than me are getting fee waivers I didn't receive. I'm not sure entirely how it works. I …

Anyone need their essay read/edited? I may be able to critique some stuff for those interested. I've already submitted applications but you can still read my personal statement if you wish.

@zmeeker91 said: On the one hand, I'm not satisfied with the explanation that accommodations are significantly contributing to the 175-180 score range. We simply don't have the data to know whether or not this is true. However, I don't think t…
