Yeah, people turn to booze all the time to avoid facing their issues. Lawyers are no exception. There are different types of intelligence: interpersonal, intrapersonal, emotional, logical, etc. I would say many professionals are logically quite inte…

Agreed, @westcoastbestcoast I bet Med students probably have a similar number of depression, mental illness and substance abuse. Maybe more. They often have 2 - 4 x's the debt load t…
Drilling by question type and then drilling timed sections worked well for me. Overall, it took me about 9 months of full-time study to take my average LR section score from a -12.5 to a -2 average on test day with a -1 and a -3 section. In practice…

Would it be out of line to send in a LOCI now, even before hearing back?

Depends how long it's been since you submit, I think. I read someone had success with this at a T14.

I’m not sure that every sa allows for a perfect prephrase but I would think that someone with high level analysis could do a pretty decent job to get to at least a vague prephrase or thought of how the connection ought to be m…

I see. But how would you know which one to use when multiple answer choices target multiple premises? They build the answer choices to lead you in the wrong direction. Wouldn’t you just be left at square one if it weren’t for …
On SA questions, in the stimuli you are given:
Premise: A -> B
and
Conclusion: A -> C
On SA questions, you are asked to find in the answer choices:
Premise: B -> C
Perfect Argument:
Premise 1: A -> B (given in stimulus)
Premise …
@swamlepow said:
Are you saying to use answer choices to test which premise to use?
-Ackbar
No, I don't think that's what I'm saying. I'm saying that you should read over the answer choices in an effort to identify which premise from the…

It helps to at least have one section down really solid and you can get there in games with foolproofing.
Great advice. Securing my LG score really helped me to have confidence in my abilities. This confidence tr…

@goingfor99th How do you know it's definitely a rejection/waitlist tho
As far as I know, everyone who's received a DLS also received a WL/rejection. Acceptances are calls or emails.
