@westcoastbestcoast said: Agreed. What also sucks is the regret of what if tried harder and got into my dream school @tylerdschreur10 said: If you're applying next cycle, one hundred percent delay until June. There's literally n…

If you're applying next cycle, one hundred percent delay until June. There's literally no downside. Ok, yes more studying sucks, but saving 50 grand or more does not suck!

I'm captain of the anti-addendum camp. Unless you have extraordinary circumstances I think addendums tend to be either no impact or come off as making excuses. For you specifically, I think the time interval between takes is pretty self-explanator…

I agree it depends on the nature of your work. I always studied at night, but my job is not mentally challenging, so it worked out. Sounds like you would be better served studying in the am. I think it's crucial to treat studying early like a job. …

The biggest thing is being willing to stretch your studying out, calendar wise. If you try to study 5 hours a day after work + weekends, you will get burnt out, quickly. I worked 7 to 5, then worked out and ate, studied from 7 to 10ish most nights.…

@Sjshibley said: I just want to say thank you, so much, to 7sage for having such a great, affordable LSAT curriculum. I followed their advice and studied for about a year before taking the December 2017 LSAT. I scored a 162 and got into the Un…

@"Accounts Playable" Can you elaborate more on what you liked about UVA? They're one of my top choices, of I get in (been under review for 1.5 months), but Idk if I'll get a chance to visit. I'd love as much info as possible from people thatve see…

I've only been to UofM and Texas-Austin. Both huge thumbs up! Michigan is beautiful, the city is great, especially if you prefer a true college town atmosphere. And nothing beats and arbor on game day! Even if you don't care about sports, the exci…

Sidebar, does anyone know why they vary the times? It seems like 8:30 across the board would be better for all parties. Maybe in case of 3rd shift workers who can't get time off and want to go to law school and escape the sweatshop??
-
My first attempt was june of last year, and I've since taken twice at 8:30, so I can give you a first hand comparison. I didn't notice any fatigue or mental lapses in june, although I was EXHAUSTED when I walked out at 7 (it was a new testing center…

They're also a good place to ask questions of current students, chat about visit day logistics and other stuff related to admissions and deciding which school to attend. Definitely worthwhile IMHO

I finally got the bindings for my snowboard that I've been ogling for 2 years! Couldn't justify dropping 80 bucks, but 30 bucks...? Why the f not! Plus after finishing studying and apps I now have this weird thing called free time!

@westcoastbestcoast said: UCI's deadline is feb. Yes FAFSA should be filled out even before apps are sent according to lsac. Not to worry, I finished my FAFSA couple days ago. Didnt take too long @tylerdschreur10 said: …

@"Leah M B" said: I don't know much at all about FAFSA. I do know that I went to an event for University of Washington and they said that you absolutely had to submit the FAFSA by January 15. I don't remember if that was because of scholarship…

Something else to keep on mind is that PT average, once you establish a current one, is generally 2-3 points higher than your actual score. So even if you are averaging 158, you shouldn't assume you'll get higher than 155

I agree TLS had problems and some negative users, but also some invaluable resources. Asking questions of current students was super helpful to me in evaluating and comparing schools. The admissions data going years back was great, and hard to find…

I did my interview Saturday! I had the same 3 verbal questions but my written question was: Describe a time when you learned something new
-
I think that's 50-50. As devil's advocate, I have to say your reasons are kind of weak. I could point out that law school involves distractions and lots of people get sick, you have to find a way to rise above the noise and excel despite these thing…

I personally don't re-read the stimulus, but i can see the value. I think try a single read and if you find yourself struggling with insufficient comprehension or forgetting things, go with JY. I do think reading the ASQ is very wise. I used to jum…

@lsatplaylist said: Hey, @tylerdschreur10, I've heard of Hope College many times! Good looking out!! Are you from the mitten then??

This thread is great! I grew up and went to undergrad in west michigan at a school you've never heard of (Hope College fans anywhere???). I love anything outside; rock climbing, kayaking, surfing (havent learned but am dying to), shredding powder, …

There's no cut and dried right answer, but I would suggest you take in February with june as a backup. I took the test a total of 3 times before o got a score i was happy with, and yes the cost and extra time investment sucks, but it's sometimes nec…

@"Leah M B" Maybe I should apply UW! I'm a little off-put by the reputation for rainfall tho. Is it as bad as everyone says?
-
The more time you're taking, the more you're benefiting! Keep up the intensity and you'll go far! People who's blind review looks anything like, "oh yup, I should've picked B. Just a silly mistake, next question", are in deep trouble. That's just a…
-
I would agree to wait and hope for the best in Feb. All signs point toward increased urgency on the part of LSAC to release scores quickly, which will help. If, God forbid, you don't up your score, I don't think the extra month of delaying would hav…

Not sure if that really answered your question....?

I think if they identify themselves as say, Joe Josephson Assistant Dean of Correspondence, then I think it's appropriate to respond using their first name, including title if they give one. If it is an anonymous email from the admission office, I u…
