Hello, I think it's kind of funny that your greeting is 'Howdy' and that you graduated from Texas All jokes aside though, I try not to limit myself on how many hours to study during a given day. For me personally, when I was going through the co…

Great post! Good luck to you

This is awesome! Your progress is admirable

Well the good news is that June is still a little ways away. You have enough time to really hit every section fairly thoroughly. With that being said, the best route would be to do what @"Cant Get Right" said above. Do some LG sections and if you …

I think it all depends on your relationship with the father. I'm going to agree with your girlfriend here. Don't ask for permission. TELL the man you are proposing to his daughter, and his support would be appreciated. You're the man here and you'…

@Calgary77321 Absolutely! When you do make a mistake, make sure you write that down as well. Then review that mistake, and incorporate a system to not make that same mistake. This is huge, realizing your mistakes and making sure you don't make that …

@Simbatron said: 1. Does this sound correct?? Is it possible to drop down from a 3.55 to a 3.39 just from 1 F? Yeah man It's unfortunate. If your GPA was calculated the same way my school calculates their GPA, then you received 0 out of a poss…

@Lnanncampbell said: What I have been doing in my practice sets is using white-board marker "tick" marks on the face of my watch to denote 7 minute sections, and I've found this to be helpful, but am not sure if this is allowable on exam day, unles…

Hey @zkchrumz I'm hesitant to answer because I'm not entirely sure, but I don't think we need to make this into a not both relationship. So for the stimulus we have: If patients with heart disease take medication under supervision --> No side…

You can absolutely become stressed from doing things you love Absolutely, you're missing the underlying point. But I'm not going to hijack a perfectly useful thread in order to try and validate my thoughts. If you're really concerned, send me a …

@"Alex Divine" said: Burnout is the result of prolonged stress and mental exhaustion Hm, interesting. So I guess we really need to look at what stress is. Stress or ‘stressors’ stem from something that disturbs our physical or…

@"Alex Divine" said: Ehh... I'm not too sure about this, at least not in all cases. I do think people get mentally/emotionally burned out performing extremely cerebral activities for long periods of time -- such as prepping for the LSAT. You just …

@lawschoolstuff16 said: Not all test takers are created equal But this is a good point to make. Definitely! Keep this in mind: The LSAT isn't whats causing you to feel emotionally burned out. You have to recognize it's not to blame for dissati…

@neuro.akn JY is the 7sage instructor. I first learned about him by his LG videos. The BR videos are what sold me on the course.

Hey @neuro.akn Check out these videos from youtube. It's JY going over the BR method

Hey @"Giant Panda" , I'd love to help but I'm not entirely sure what your question is. I'm also not entirely sure what a universal statement is. Are you referring to an all statement? Something like "All Jedi use the force"

@montaha.rizeq Yes Mam @montaha.rizeq said: btw you gentlemen gave some pretty thought provoking advice. I have nothing to add haha. I used to do some freelance writing for a philosophy / psychology blog, so I had something to offer.

This is tough, man. I haven't experienced much burnout. The two things which keep the ball rolling for me are faith, and passion. When I say faith, I'm not talking about a religion, as I reject all religions in accordance with my individual belief…

And don't get me wrong, a 170-173 LSAT is no easy feat. It is doable however. Also seeing that you are at a very good school, I can at least assume you are a driven person good luck
-
Also, check out this website for an idea of potential schools http://mylsn.info/uag9s3/ With a 170-173 LSAT and a 3.1 GPA, people with similar numbers were accepted at UVA, Upenn, NW, Michigan, etc.
-
Absolutely! My GPA isn't much better then your current GPA. Although it's unlikely our applications would be considered at the top 1-8 schools, there is still plenty of other great schools to consider. Law schools place more emphasis on the LSAT th…

@montaha.rizeq said: Very spot on @jknauf on not taking a diagnostic. Hahah I'll never forget looking at my first LSAT book, getting to the first practice problem and being like "Holy s****, maybe I'm not meant for law school"

@lsat2016 said: I scored 171 in Sept and went -0 in both LR sections. This happened after multiple takes and persistent effort. My diagnostic was around 130. I missed out on a high 170s score mainly due to virus game. Wow! I never took a diagnost…

@"Alex Divine" said: I probably sound like a broken record, but imagine the LSAT as a final that you have unlimited time to study for: Would you choose to take it on X arbitrary date? Ir would you wait until you are confident you can score where yo…

@montaha.rizeq said: On the contrary, this is the best approach to achieve mastery! Often times, people are either flying through the material not gaining an ounce of knowledge or jumping around the lessons trying to find silver bullets to achieve …

@"Cant Get Right" said: I've also known people in similar situations who've found a library or coffee shop after work and done their studying while waiting out rush hour. I think this seems like solid advice for you. @bswise2 said: I work 9:30-…

@montaha.rizeq Excellent! I'll take your word for it

@montaha.rizeq said: This is only applicable to one who physically shows up to take the test. So let's say you show up and cancel before even looking at question number 1, it will count as a take. Absences aren't factored and are not reportable. I…

@montaha.rizeq said: I'm pretty sure an absence doesn't count towards your three takes. A cancellation counts however. "Normally, you may not take the LSAT more than three times in any two-year period. This policy applies even if you cancel your…
