I've taken it twice and gotten TERRIBLE sleep the night before, I was so nervous each time. Although I wish I'd gotten better sleep, I will say that the adrenaline carried me through. Also, if this happens to you, don't dwell on "how tired I feel" o…

Agreed with all the above advice. And if you do end up taking it again--or if anyone reading this is going to be taking it soon--I can't recommend more highly the strategy of taking it "anywhere and everywhere, even in bad conditions"! I did section…

Another good idea of narrowing it down could be to go to http://users.lawschoolnumbers.com/gpa-lsat, and see what the various schools similar users with your GPA got into based on their LSAT. Hope it provides inspiration of where to aim and knowledg…

@drbrown2 said: @kpj744___ @Ohnoeshalpme Instead of deleting the test, I would recommend you enter it and just exclude it from the tests showing in the analytics data. On the Trends tab it is right at the top (Currently showing x out of x …

I've had the same question myself! Generally, what I've seen is advice that LLMs for a great majority of law students aren't worth it, or that there's no real quantifiable advantage. It also seems like, especially in the US, that LLMs are looked upo…

I think the best thing would be to be honest with GULC. Say, "I love this school, that's why I applied ED, etc. However, I just realized that with DACA..." Make it clear that it was an accident and you're trying to make it work with them.

No, they don't. The exact wording in an LOR doesn't matter; all that matters is that it's a letter from a former professor/boss vouching for your ability. It should be clear that the letter-writer is recommending you as a great future law student ba…

@theLSATdreamer that is so impressive. Best of luck to you on your studying!

@adrianmicciollo said: law school will require a 4 year investment Hey, law school is 3 years, not 4. I'm not pointing this out to make you feel bad. It's possible you know that and it's just a typo! But if you really did think that law sch…

I often have the same problem. My advice: No electronics at least one hour before bed. Seriously, this makes a difference. Read before bed. I aim for 15-30 minutes. @LivingThatLSATdream is right in that Anna Karenina is a fabulous before-bed pick!…

@akistotle said: Nope. LG is the best. I think a lot of 7Sagers love the LG section after foolproofing all the games Yes I agree! After 7Sage it was like... there's one section I know I have down. On the July test, that was the section I fe…

I'm DYING to know! It's all i can think about. This is my second time taking it, and I feel like this wait was worse than the last.

@MissChanandler said: I've found that even if I "feel" like I'm awake enough to take a PT/study in the evening after work, I do worse than in the mornings. I think it's good to study in lots of different conditions though so that you'll be rea…

@MissChanandler said: Welcome! This applies more to the PT stage, but: don’t get too hung up on scores, especially when you’re far out from the actual test. Everything is a learning experience. And you can do it! Yes, I second this. Don't ge…

@MissChanandler said: I think that maybe all of your prior studying/LSAT knowledge is holding you back. It's good that you're familiar with the test, but it seems as though this previous stuff isn't really helping you and that maybe you need t…

@Ohnoeshalpme said: It depends on the market that you’re looking at. For example, plenty of top 25% students at University if Georgia make 6 figures starting out. But to some this would still be considered a law school that is toward the top. …

@MissChanandler said: I always bubble after a game, after an RC passage, and before I have to turn the page in LR. I’m also terrified of bubbling errors. It might be a few seconds slower to do fewer questions at once, but I think it’s worth it…

I usually go back to questions I've "starred," and after that, if I still have time, I check my bubbles. Although that's the ideal situation --- in the real thing last time I needed to go to the bathroom really badly, so that's what I did!

@keets993 said: Depends on what your breakdown is per section in actual time as well as BR. I achieved a 6-point increase in a month in time for the Feb 2018 test. However, I was getting far more wrong in LG than in any other section, and th…

Also worth checking out study abroad/dual degrees at schools that have a strong international focus like at NYU and Columbia. For example, Columbia has FANTASTIC options to get LLMs in other countries.

@lcf02139 said: Great post and very inspiring. I wonder what you meant by taking a "photo" of the question types you got wrong? Do you literally take a photo of the entire question or just the question stem? I suppose if you got many "weaken" …

@eliza_engineer said: How long have you been studying like this for? I studied like this for a month before my first LSAT (February 2018) and went from a diagnostic 165 to a 171 (under my PT range, definitely, but I was paralyzingly nervous)…
