Yeah, I'd highly encourage you to retake! You can't change your GPA, but you can redo your LSAT.

A good article from 7sage admissions on this question: https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/lesson/affects-chances-getting-law-school/

@"surfy surf" said: Okay so now I’m remembering my 2nd LR section. I’m pretty sure it was 26 qs and question 24 was a really hard q about a photo this kid found of his aunt, Jamaica 1972. Question 25 was two statements about taxes increasing a…

@Kateryna said: @onecallthatsall yes! I felt same way. So was the 26 question one real? And then the second one experimental? Had LR LG LR LR RC That's what I'm hoping! I'm hoping my second one was experimental

I had 3 LR's (LR LG LR LR RC). My first LR: don't remember My second LR: Mayor and economist talking about payroll and taxes My third LR: Dog who howls at trains Can anyone confirm which one was experimental?

@ilokmaca said: Was LG City Workers the Supervised/Unsupervised one? Yes. That was real
-
So for people that had 3 LRs (LR LG LR LR RC) did we generally decide the second LR was experimental?

I'd go for it. I was terribly nervous for the Feb test, really dreading it, and I'd had only 2 PTs in the range I aimed for (out of 5 total, including diagnostic). I still took it and I'm glad I did. I didn't do as well as I'd hoped, but it was so h…

I personally didn't do all the PTs! And I wouldn't either! I cannibalized a lot of PTs and used their sections individually for study.

Yesterday did PT81 RC and BR'd it, today did a PT81 LR and PT81 LG. Tomorrow's plan is PT81 LR, BR'ing both LRs, plus some old In/Out games that I've already foolproofed for review. On the day of, I'm going to go for a run and do two confidence sect…

I'd suggest, if you haven't already, going back to the questions that you missed or that are marked high priority and write out explanations for the correct answer, including referencing passage line numbers. It may help you to see which questions y…

@studentservice said: Thank you for your suggestions! Sorry guys, you need access to the course to see the comments. Ah, that's too bad! Would love to see a way around it in the future... maybe being able to see the comments without seeing …

Is there any way to answer #help questions without being enrolled? I own the PTs, and I'd love to continue to help out in the community here, but I'm just not enrolled
-
I use the 20 for 20 guideline when practicing on sections -- but let me just emphasize that I use it as a GUIDELINE. It's more to know where I'm at. If, say, you're on Q07 and 15 minutes have passed, that's a yikes. I usually don't wait until 20 mi…

@Redentore3337 said: Also when you say 42 sections, do you mean 21 whole PT's? How many PT's have you done till you reached that range, just curious. I've only done about 11 PTs. The rest of the sections are stand-alone practices.
-
@BinghamtonDave thank you, this is fabulous way to put it into words! I'm taking July as well. Good luck to both of us!

If you're working before you go, ask what careers/jobs would give great experience in the field. Ask them definitely about the worse part of law. Ask them specifically about their field of law: How did you get into this field? What do you like about…

Don't worry about it! People delay going to grad/law school ALL THE TIME. There are so many reasons: "It just wasn't the right time for me." "I really love my job and I wanted one more year of experience." "I wanted to take a year to be really sure.…

@"Leah M B" That's a great schedule. As someone who's currently working while studying, I'm definitely taking notes!
-
Congratulations!! How wonderful for you and your family!

I feel the same way. My last 4 PTs have been n, n-3, n+3, n-3 ... overall a 6-point range, with an overall average of n. The last one (n-3) totally crushed my morale. I'm trying to remind myself that it's about the overall trend/data set, not indivi…

I'd also suggest doing a few sections untimed -- just go through, don't worry about the clock, take as much time as you need per question. Give your brain the time it needs to go through the logic, weigh the options, etc. If you keep rushing through…

I would take it before you go. I know it's rough to study when you're focusing on something else, but has someone who has spent time working/living in both rural and urban areas of West Africa, it's going to be much, much harder to study when you do…

@testfromaway said: You PT, BR, and review in the same day? I'd space that process out. Do your two (or three, if you must) PTs a week, but dedicate one day to PT, the next to BR and review, and then restart the cycle. You don't want to BR on …

I do really low-resolution summaries. I love them for two reasons: they allow me to then skim through the paragraph more quickly, and they help me to remember what it's about. Honestly, I hardly look back at them once I start answering questions; it…

Would you all say there's a big difference in admissions chances -- disregarding softs -- between those applying in the 175-180 range? What I'm saying is, in that range, does a point or two make a difference...a 175/176/177, for example, or a 177/17…
