What I just did was I made a list of the question types I got wrong and the difficulty level of those questions. For example, I got two weakening questions wrong that were both 3/5 difficulty and two NA questions that were 4/5 difficulty. Those are …

@BinghamtonDave thank you!!

Download the Insight Timer app. There are tons of great ones! One of my favorites is "Believe in Yourself" by Stressfit. He literally tells you that you can do anything because you're amazing.

Number 4 is exactly what I need to keep reading! I'm trying to not get burnt out, but it's so hard for me to take an extra day (or even a half-day) for myself when I planned to study. Thanks!
-
@AudaciousRed @ATLsat_2019 any specific webinars you'd recommend?
-
@mjs44 I see you have the starter package. Any chance you can afford to upgrade? Having access to the harder questions while you're studying would probably be helpful. Plus, getting even one extra question right on the LSAT could earn you thousands …

I've read that each point above a school's median LSAT score is worth about $7,500 in scholarship. You're doing yourself a huge favor here! Time is money. Try to remember that. Of course, you could take the LSAT in June, but you have higher standard…

Omg I'm so happy to see that you improved so much! My diagnostic was a 155, and my target goal is 166, which means that I want to cut my number of wrong answers in half. (My stretch goal is 169.) Any tips? And how long have you been studying? Also, …

I got a concussion right after Thanksgiving... basically as soon as I finished LR. I restarted it 2.5 weeks ago, and tomorrow will be my last day relearning it! (I'll be making flash cards and drilling a little through the end of the month.) The rea…

You can probably get in if you're in the 75th percentile with your LSAT score.

Oh, and if typing is easier, you can get an accommodation to type the essay.

I've read a lot about them but haven't applied for them yet. You have a good shot at getting intermittent "stop the clock" breaks with a doctor's note. I'm not sure what else you would qualify for that would be helpful.

Hey @Redentore3337! I had this bookmarked and I can't see the link anymore. Can you post it in a comment for me?
-
In a month? Probably not. Can you take it in September or November? If you take half of the answers you got wrong and got them right, you'd be at a 158-159. I'm planning on cutting my wrong answers in half over the course of 4-5 months. https://www.…

@"Seeking Perfection" I like the way you think haha.

If you're struggling with "simple" lawgic mistakes, work more on LR. That will also help with LG. Otherwise, RC looks like your best bet for short-term improvement.
-
I did something similar! I got a concussion at the end of November right after finishing LR, then I moved. Two weeks ago, I restarted LR. It has been discouraging at times because I knew things before that I struggled with the second time around, bu…

I live in Nashville, and one benefit of being around here is that there are no other highly competitive law schools in Tennessee. I can't speak to the area around St. Louis... but the schools are basically the same rank. Assuming you don't have any …

I actually did that! I'm living off of savings all summer, and I'm so grateful that I have this time to study. It also motivates me to study "full time hours" because I don't want to feel like I gave up my income for nothing. I don't think a gap on …

I'm just restarting after a concussion... which, unfortunately, I'm still not fully recovered from. I took off from the end of November through the middle of last week. I did all of LR before my concussion, and I'm going to take the rest of May to r…

T14 schools really look at EVERYTHING on your application to see who you are as a person. I would think that it would help you a little... maybe if they're deciding waitlist vs acceptance or denial vs waitlist. I don't think that it would necessaril…

The top 75% doesn't seem like the same thing as above the 25th percentile. Are you sure that's what they meant? It sounds like they want you to be in the 75th percentile.

As stated above, the opposite of "all A then B" is "some A not B". Essentially, the opposite of "all" is not "none"-- it's "some".

@uhinberg the picture of my ticket on my LSAC account is B&W and I submitted my photo in color. That being said, I think it will automatically print in B&W. @alizeh182 I wouldn't worry about it too much. Keep the picture on your phone to sho…

@marcosmcqueen I think it’s more about justice than revenge. I’m glad you pointed that out though. Thanks for all of that!
-
I’m not exactly sure how it works, but the LSAC will convert it to a 4.0 scale.
-
@goingfor99th thank you. I was in a mass violence situation that wound up all over the news. It really makes me want to be a prosecutor, so I think it is relevant enough to talk about.
-
No idea if this will help, but I plan on trying it if I run into that difficulty. (I do it pretty often on problem sets.) Try marking your first instinct answer on the page when you decide to change your mind and bubble in a different one. At the en…

@"Alex Divine" it’s not too bad haha. I’ll fill you in with my response to your PM.

Yup! You'll have a good amount of room to do so.
