Hi, So don't worry about what family/friends are saying. This test is a special one and it takes awhile to get prepared for it. They're probably imagining it like the SAT/ACT, but this test is very different. It's also different from school exams. S…

I can imagine the sting of seeing that email. Is this a large university, by any chance? What was your grade? Remember this won't matter in five years and I don't think it's about you. I think it's just an example of the weirdness in academia. Have …

It's important to take inventory of your life and the other things that take up large amounts of time. Are you still in college?
-
Hey, has anyone had an experience with a FAFSA restriction at a school because of having reached their course credit limit? Is this common at schools? This isn't necessarily a law school question; it's more about undergrad and higher ed, just for pl…

@chicaryss, Maybe those typos were a blessing in disguise.
-
Sorry, but does AA stand for Asian-American?
-
Nice work! Happy for you.
-
@tringo335, @"Leah M B", NTS as well here. Here's to making positive career and educational changes.
-
@LSATcantwin, Yes, the costs are steep, unfortunately. I went to all the classes online for my course and participated and they were helpful to a point, but as you said, each person in the class has an individual situation. They were cramming a ton …

ThinkingLSAT also has some episodes on URM application issues that might help.
-
@"Habeas Porpoise", This is an awesome story! Great job on your accomplishments and getting to your goal range and staying dedicated to this process.
-
@LSATcantwin, When you realized you needed a different approach, how did you deal with negative feelings about having spent so much on another course that pretty much wasn't helpful? How did you move forward?
-
@LSATcantwin, What did you do with your books from the course?
-
@LSATcantwin, I agree with so much of what you're saying.
-
Is anyone recovering from a past program before 7Sage?
-
Thanks for the stories and looking forward to more conversations.
-
It's basically the best value out there, I think.
-
This is going to be the year I finally get fully ready for and take this exam and then submit completed applications and apply to law school, for real, and then in fall of the following year it'll be 1L. Amazed by how time flies. Here's to our dream…
-
Also, maybe try to see what other people there have done.
-
Can you trade days with someone else? Or offer to work an extra day beforehand in exchange for taking that Monday off?
-
@"nicolas.saw", Did people contact the LSAC afterwards? I'm glad you explained that your watch met the requirements. I would've been shaken as well, and I'm glad you found the words to make things better.
-
Thanks to you both for responding. I'm glad it's a one-step process. I'll practice it so it gets more familiar. Youtube has 10 minute videos for divers on watch bezels, as I recall.
-
And you can bring them something that way, perhaps some postage stamps (even if it's online, they'll probably have some use for them).
-
So after the email we met about a month later with conversations in between and it worked out well.
-
https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/post-core-curriculum-study-strategies/ I'd be happy to discuss them as well.
-
I think you'll be happier down the road if you make another attempt.
-
So when you used the Casio, did you turn back the watch to 12 each time and also rotate the bezel? Some of the videos (for divers) make it look overly complicated, but I've only used it for telling time so far.
-
I tried to send it during normal hours. It took some courage to hit send, but was so worth it. They find the first month of a semester extremely busy, but are still checking emails and it's good to make the ask once you've written something you're h…

@"Alex Divine", Interesting! I hadn't known this. Glad you mentioned it.
-
Send them an updated resume. When you write the email, include short descriptions of things you did in the class (projects, papers, etc). Also mention value you got from the class. Tell them what semester it was. Also briefly outline reasons why you…
