No you should apply to T14s because splitters do get accepted. While the grad GPA doesn't counteract the low UGPA, I'm sure it will signal to law schools that you are capable of handling demanding academic challenges and have grown since undergrad. …

Congrats!! You should be so proud of how hard you worked

I don't have this problem with LR but I was consistently scoring lower than I wanted with LG so I went to the problem set bank and started drilling/foolproofing games I hadn't seen before. I found it pretty helpful and the PT I took today showed a j…

Bumping this, does anyone know?
-
The problem with your answer choice is you are making too many leaps and assumptions. With a NA question type you want to choose the answer that makes the least amount of assumptions and, if negated, would wreck the argument. If the candidates in t…

In college I much preferred to study in libraries/coffeeshops, but in post-grad life I love studying in my quiet calm apartment haha.
-
I feel like this is hard to address without understanding your specific situation. For example, I PT 169 consistently but BR 175-180. I realize that the reason for this gap is mostly missing up to 8 questions per LG because I rush through them, pani…
-
This isn't directly addressing the problem but I would say do the majority of your studying as full-length practice tests rather than individual sections. It will get you into the habit of spending hours at a time test-taking, so the stamina issue w…

Does JY discuss cookie cutter review or is that from another website? Sorry just confused because I haven't heard that before!
-
You can create custom problem sets in the problem set section! You can choose by difficulty (out of 5 stars) and filter by type
-
Were you surprised to see 142? Or did you panic that day and find yourself skipping and rushing through questions?
-
Just postpone. Better to take the test when you aren't in frantic mode
-
Good point! Did you ever see a stabilizing of PT scores? The drop I've seen is only 5 points but a pretty big percentile drop, but I am glad to see the drop early on so I know what to focus on
-
I don't have suggestions because I'm not at that phase yet haha but congrats!!!!!!!
-
What has helped me for these is understanding that you are looking for the bare minimum to make the argument logically sound. When debating between two answer choices, pick the ones that just barely covers gaps in the argument, not the one that cove…

Yes (from what I've heard, disclaimer haven't gone to law school). Networking opportunities from T14 are incredibly useful, and going to a T14 often broadens the geographic markets you can work in. So if you are asking if a T14 helps your job prospe…

Gap year. Your LSAT is pretty far below their median. Also, personally speaking, I found it easier and more fun to study for the LSAT after undergrad than during it, despite my full-time job. I feel like in undergrad studying for the LSAT feels like…
-
If the reach school is your dream school then absolutely why not? If plan A falls, then retake and apply for next year.
-
Which school?
-
Honestly I feel like the 3.1 makes it pretty unlikely that you'll get into a T14 even with 170+, unless you're like 175+ and URM and mindblowing personal essay
-
Sounds like you may be fixating on it too much. Try to take a mental breather and do something fun
-
@nicolelauren19 I don't know when they release dates but I am also planning to take around that time (might push it to later if I'm not PTing where I want to be because I'm not in a rush to apply to schools with my current job). So feel free to mess…
-
I also have the Ultimate+. What I did was: at the end of CC, I took the Feb 1997 test and BR'd (that is part of the CC). After this I used the Analytics page to identify weaknesses that were highlighted in both that test and my initial diagnostic fr…
-
@hannahco thanks!! I thought it would have explanations because it's in the CC but I guess that makes sense, I will make posts Also not sure what # it is - when I try to search the number it shows up between 21 and 22 but doesn't have its own # :P
-
https://classic.7sage.com/lsat-explanations/ Okay I found this section but February 1997 only has explanations for Logic Games? What the heck? Why?
-
Get the low hanging fruit (like logic games) out of the way first, unless you are already scoring super well in them. This is the section that lends itself to the most improvement, or so I've heard
-
Is it possible to go to solo practice fresh out of law school? I can't imagine a client wanting to take on a lawyer who is fresh out of law school and hasn't worked in that type of setting before.
-
Congrats!!!!
-
I don't see what you have to lose since it isn't like you'd get your money back either way. Congrats on 172!
-
I imagine doing a thorough job of blind reviewing your PTs and ending up with less PTs would be more beneficial than rushing through a few more. Quality over quantity! I haven't started PTing yet because I'm still not done with the CC, but that's th…
