@kkrystyna said: My perspective is - If I don't get a scholarship I'm not going, and I advise anyone to do the same. I agree student loans is the least ideal situation but if that's what you have to do follow your dreams do it -- with caut…

@"Alex Divine" said: @tringo335 said: Under question #2 in this section, JY uses the conditional indicator "If" to translate the sentence to the sufficient part instead of "Any" at the beginning of the sentence. Can someone explain…

@LSATcantwin said: I'm going to give this a shot...I'll probably not make much sense and need a Sage to save me but here we go... I look at indicators like a hinge/link between two ideas. The indicator shows me that two ideas are connecte…

Awesome! Thanks for sharing

@Mellow_Z you have a good point; but I think if there was a school you REALLY wanted to go to you could just make another visit to prove you're really interested (they probably won't remember that you already visited) or just do a follow up letter s…

@LSATcantwin said: @TheMikey even than that seems odd. They keep a list of everyone who's ever visited. Then cross reference the dates of visits with applications...somehow I think they don't give a toss... haha LOL! right! I have been on s…

@Freddy_D said: I've also started lookin at the actual apps on LSAC for each school that I plan on applying to. Some of them have essays/short response questions in the app that they don't mention on their websites, so I've started thinking ab…

Yay! Thanks guys for the input. I will definitely start scheduling those tours ;-). SO EXCITING!!

Oh yea also, don't worry about your diagnostic. I've seen plenty of stories of people who started in the 140s and tested in the 170s ... this test is totally learnable.

Congrats on finding 7Sage! It's a great resource. I know 2 years seems like a long way off but when you're studying full time, it may not be. I work full time and already plan on dedicating probably another 10 months or so to studying before I get t…

@uhinberg said: @tringo335 Everyone is saying the same thing. The Sabbath observer test is different (read: will have different questions) than the one that is administered on the preceding Saturday, but is not qualitatively different than tha…

@"Seeking Perfection" said: I took the February non-disclosed test. They are not any different except that you never know how you did on each section or what questions you missed which can be a little frustrating. Edit: I'm not saying the…

I hadn't realized the tests were any different; I just thought that your test wasn't disclosed .. hmmmmm good to know.

@theLSATdreamer said: well someone needs some ritalin lol, I used to do 2 hour periods take a break and go again, but then i took the test with accommodation and realized its a 6 hour test so now i just man up and try to do 6 hours straight …

@jadewzheng @tanes256 @"conrad.p" wow what great advice! @jadewzheng you have a good point. When I was studying with the LSAT Trainer the author made it a point to say that you should not study for more 1.5 hours at a time. You have a really good p…

@"Alex Divine" said: @tringo335 Another thing I've found that I forgot to mention is investing in a comfortable chair if you don't already use one. I know you won't have the luxury on test day, but when studying for hours at a time, I can't te…

Thanks guys! @"marvin.dike" and @TheMikey I workout 6 times a week and am mostly vegan so I don't think it's a diet and exercise problem. I really love your advice @LSATcantwin and @LSAT warrior princess I didn't realize it was like a training fo…

I find it easier to weaken I think it's the cynical side of me lol. I immediately want to poke holes in someone's argument. Probably one of my biggest faults but will help me on the test ha!
-
This is great. I admire your persistence, drive and humility. Kudos to you homie.

@Freddy_D said: The quote that I printed out is from the LSAT Trainer: "May your curse in life be that your hard work is constantly mistaken for talent" Let's dominate, y'all!!! I have that quote too!!

Yay! I love your motivational posts!

@Freddy_D said: Also, even if you are not considered an URM, you can still contribute to the diversity of the incoming class. For example, Stanford's "definition" of diversity includes one's "background, life and work experiences, advanced st…

From what I've read, like @"Alex Divine" said, Underrepresented Minorities only apply to African Americans, Native Americans and Latinos. Asians were under this category in the past but no longer. I also don't think schools 'prefer' a certain race …

Team LR! ..... however; after doing the first LG section with 7Sage it was SOO fun .. so I may be converting? *gasp!
