I had withdrawn last year before taking the test and I just wanted to make sure it wasn't on my LSAC record. Thanks for helping me figure it all out!
-
Wait, is canceling before you take the same as withdrawing?
-
I now understand the difference between canceling and taking an absence. But what's the difference between canceling and withdrawing? Thanks for helping me figure this out, it's a bit confusing.

Maybe you wouldn't feel comfortable doing this, but I know people who accepted and deferred for their safety school while reapplying to their top choices. If you do this, you don't have to worry about re-admission to your safety school and if there'…

I agree with @danballinger5 and @jdawg13. Taking the test in June gives you a solid chunk of time to prepare to the best of your ability and your chances of scholarship and admissions will increase if you apply early next cycle. If you retake in Feb…

I'm in the same boat as you are and I was totally crushed to see my December score. And just like you, for various reasons, I was desperate to apply this year to law school. But, let's weigh the pros and cons. Cons: if you apply this cycle with the …

Yes, I got my LSAT score emailed to me this morning.

I think ttunden might have said not to because writing an addenda for your LSAT score might sound like you're making an excuse, which wouldn't reflect well. I'm still on the fence about writing one myself, so I don't feel like I can give you definit…

I don't know if the contest is already over, but generally, my favorite thing about 7sage has been JY's demeanor in his jokes in all the videos. He made me feel so much more optimistic and enthusiastic about the whole study process and law school ap…

What matters isn't your diagnostic score, but rather your final score on the test. Don't let your diagnostic score or your Sept score get you down. I initially used Powerscore to study, but 7sage is a million times easier to understand and significa…

For the two weeks you have left, study more hours. I work full time, so I can only study 3 hours during the week, but I try and get 6-8 hours of studying Saturday and Sunday. Also, since I only have two weeks left, rather than try and fix all of my …

For tailoring your list of schools to apply to, I would look at your average score for PTs to have an idea of how you'll do in December. This'll help you figure out what should be your safety, target, and reach schools. I also like this website wher…

I'm also a Dec re-taker, got a 162 in Sept, which is lower than my PTs. I've already gone through the entire 7sage material and I'm reviewing/working on my weakest points. I don't know what your time zone is, but I'd be happy to commit to Skyping an…

If you can, get ahold of Adderall. I live abroad and so I don't use it, but I have found other things help with my focus. Breaking up study time with 10-15 minute breaks every two hours (or every hour on bad days), exercising, getting full rest, me…

Unfortunately, this is the only testing center in Turkey where I'm currently living, so changing test centers would be a bit difficult/expensive lol. Thanks for the advice though, I'll give them a call tomorrow.

What I'm doing is taking the LSAT now in September and if I don't get the score I want, I will retake it in December and send in my hopefully higher Dec score. In the meantime, I'm going to continue with the remainder of the application process in O…

You mentioned being drained when you come home from work, which I totally relate to. Maybe one way to try and fix that is by getting up two hours earlier to study before you go to work. For me, that requires me to skip breakfast and wake up at 5:45a…

Yes, that's right! I didn't think of that, but I have been moving on to much more recent practice tests. Will definitely check out the recommended magazines/newspapers and continue drilling conditional logic. Thanks for the advice!
-
Both of you, thanks for the advice. I think a tutor would be helpful, so if you have any specific recommendations, raytranr, that'd be great!

No, that makes sense. I just wanted to know the reasoning behind it. Thanks! :}
