I am a really emotional person! To deal with the abundance of feelings about the LSAT, I literally just talk it out. Nothing is better than letting all of your frustrations out with someone who can just listen. Sometimes it really helps me workout m…

Let's put it this way. If taking that week means that you get a few extra points on your LSAT, then that will likely translate to substantially more money in scholarships than cashing out the vacay will.
YES.
I reduced my hours at work from full time to part time, so I would take the time off. Money is just money. If you're PTing in your range and you're set to take the October LSAT and that 50 hours could really help improve your score (by more PTs or b…
My boss invited me to watch the jury verdict of one of his trials. 3 accused were on trial for a bunch of charges related to drug trafficking/conspiracy to traffic drugs/possession/transportation. Of the 3, ours heard his fate last. I literally reme…
@nicole.hopkins @Pacifico I feel like I'm experiencing burn out but I want to be sure.
I literally just wrote an exam on Monday and scored a 170 w/ BR of 180. Previously, I scored a 168 w/ BR of 175. Today... I wrote and scored a 161. I haven't BR …
I always print one copy of the PT, and then print a clean copy. Go through the answers and REALLY critically look at them. Just because you think your answer is right, doesn't mean it is...... take the time to really reason out why you think your an…
Sometimes I drill with past LR sections (that I haven't taken for MONTHS) and, although I know what you're talking about with the mental *i've taken this before it should be easy* I STILL got a few wrong that I got wrong the first time I took it....…
I'm really caffeine dependent *sips coffee as typing*....... so for the LSAT in December I had an energy drink in my water bottle (I know for a lot of people they get tooooooo crazy on energy drinks, but they're OK for me), and I had a little protei…
I'm starting to feel the same way and I was wondering the exact same thing. My mind is so fuzzy and problems that were once SO easy seem SO hard. HOW. WHY.

Thanks for all the great responses, I have decided I'm going to quit. Yes, parental pressure = financial pressure. I live in Long Island, NY.. If I decided to move out I'd be paying 1100$ per month on rent to live in a shack. Dela…
Honestly. You have to do what YOU feel is best for you. I was in the exact same position as you. I started studying May of 2014 and considered quitting my job then. I didn't, scored a 155 on the December 2014 LSAT and had to re write. Fast forward t…
At the law firm I work for now, 2 of the lawyers here started in law school after they already had established careers (one, a professor, the other, in computers). Age is just a number.
I wouldn't recommend 3/4 prep tests either. Nicole is totally right. You won't have enough time to properly BR and then brush up on your fundamentals between your PTs.
Wow, congrats on the 168 without BR! I agree with what everyone said above. Limit the PTs you take from here until test day, make sure you have a solid BR, review fundamentals where you feel you are lacking, & keep up with LG practice to stay fr…
Personally, I used Kaplan (BIG MISTAKE), until I found 7Sage. I supplemented with the Trainer for RC and Flaw, but other than that, 7Sage was basically enough.
Sorry to hear you're struggling with NA!
I wouldn't ignore the stimulus completely. BUT when I do see a context indicator I make sure to note where it context is and where the argument is.... skim the context and get right into the question.
I would not skip around. It would just take more time for you to be using actually getting to work. And... either way.... short or long, you'll be shooting to read all of them regardless.
I use the first method because it's what the LSAT Trainer teaches you.
Basically, and if you read the Trainer, you'll see that all the questions for every passage you will ever read are all structured pretty much the same and they're all looking for…
I'm from Canada too!! Which province do you live in?
I think, from what I can see, you might be doing too many prep tests. You said you're doing them..... M/W/F and doing a full day of blind review, which means M, W, F are exams, T, TH, and S are bl…
