@vduran1988 said: If that means that many schools aren't necessarily getting great applicants so are shirking their standard 25/75 splits than hurray! I think I read somewhere that LSAT scores are actually up across the board, but I might be mis…

This cycle does appear strange, BUT it is still early in the cycle and most T-14s haven't sent out big rejection waves yet. Things might even out, but the cycle does appear to be moving along slower than usual. Weirdest cycle I have seen so far is …

I scored a LOT lower on my first LSAT take than on my PTs. Scored about 4 points lower the second time around. I'm not the best test taker though.

In my opinion, RC in the 60s is pretty hard. RC in the 70s is relatively easier. LG in 70s are more unpredictable than in the 60s - the game sets are either really easy, or they have two really easy games and then one or two really unusual games. …

I printed everything, too (also double sided). Definitely time consuming, but absolutely worth it.

@vduran1988 no worries. anyway, I believe CAS is available for purchase at any time throughout the year. I would purchase as soon as possible though, so that you can get your transcripts and LORs in...those can take time.
-
@DByrne07 well there you go, with practice you can easily make up those six points on LG. It's also very feasible to improve your LR and RC sections, they just take a little bit longer than LG improvement. definitely do a lot of drilling and take th…

@LSATaker said: @stgl1230 Thank you, It really sounds constly... By the way, can my school send electric copy of transcript along with the transcript form? Or those should be mailed to LSAC? I thought if we could send electric version, it will sa…

Hi, congrats on your improvement! It's definitely feasible to score above 158 for the June test, given that you have the time to study and PT properly. If one of your struggles is LG, it's easy to improve on LG with practice. LG improvement alone c…

@LSATaker said: I'm still not sure how it works...it says for each school it costs $30. So this is in addition to the $175 (for making CAS) and application fee each school requires right? Unfortunately, yes. When you request transcripts from you…

do you mean the CAS on the LSAC site? if I remember correctly though, CAS was around $150 or something.

@LSATaker said: Where is the transcript requesting form? I registered my schools, but I do not see the forms. When you log into LSAC, go to Apply > Credentials > Transcripts. Then when you scroll down, under your listed institutions, it will…

The june 2007 explanations are under Resources > LSAT Explanations. You can scroll down to June 2007 from there - it's between PTs 51 and 52. And yes, you're correct - February tests are undisclosed, except for the ones in Superprep, which are P…

If you apply through ED, it is binding, meaning that you absolutely have to attend that school if you are accepted. Additionally, you must also withdraw your application from all other schools to which you have applied. It's not easy to get out of a…

Also, I started out by writing a general personal statement. Then I edited my PS for different schools instead of writing a complete different statement for each program.
-
I probably spent upwards of 75 hours on mine. I think I restarted my PS from scratch like six times. It took me over a month - I started in early October and didn't finish it until early November when I submitted my first applications. And then I ch…

@"Giant Panda" said: The question, rewrote, consists of: P1: Too large or too small of class size is bad. P2: Very light or very heavy faculty work load is also bad C: Crowded classes and overworked faculties are bad. I believe that the conclus…

Technically it's possible, but for most people it would take more than five months to consistently reach the 170+ range. It took me about 7-8 months. I broke the 170+ barrier when I was PTing, but I still didn't actually score a 170+ until my second…
-
I second @montaha.rizeq. If your current score is not within the range of the schools you are applying for, there's a decent chance that they won't be interested in seeing your February score, especially so late in the cycle. Even if you were admitt…

you might like this tool on law school numbers, if you haven't seen it yet - http://yale.lawschoolnumbers.com/stats/1617 I used yale as an example, but you can see the stats of some of the accepted/denied/waitlisted students. Obviously, it's a self…

It's worthwhile to apply, especially if you have fee waivers. Definitely work hard on your PS, write the supplemental essays (if there are any), and submit ASAP. I know some T14 deadlines are coming up in a few weeks. Applying this late in the cycle…

Are all international tests undisclosed???

Hey, congrats on your 169. That's an excellent score, especially for such a short schedule. A 172+ in June is definitely within reach. Best of luck as you prepare for June - sounds like you got this in the bag.

@onecallthatsall said: Got my target score. 8 points above my September score. PRAISE THE LORD ahhh congrats! I feel ya, the december lsat was our lsat. good work!!

@"J. Tharp" oooh congrats on your decision to move to LA. My brother is at UCLA and he loves it. Can't beat the weather, and it's an excellent school. best of luck!

@TheLoftGuy said: @stgl1230 According to my Advisor I am 1 point away from a huge difference (25%) in $. Slightly devastated after just speaking to her. How much are your tutoring services? just one point?? can you write an awesome PS or somethi…

Ugh I'm sorry @"Creasey LSAT" that is awful, although 164 is not bad considering you misbubbled a large part of the section. Maybe you can write an addendum on your applications?

Hey, -0 in RC is no easy feat. Congrats!
