@RafaelBernard said: @"Seeking Perfection" said: If the LSAT falls and everyone hears it will my chances fall too? Worried about this myself... Honestly, this may very likely be the case. I mean people have taken the GRE th…

Maybe lsat will have an easier curve now to attract more test takers to come back... just kidding. If only..

@akistotle I'm thinking of bring both just in case. Having a rotating bezel might be more convenient since it takes longer to pull and the push down crown to reset the time as opposed to just rotating a bezel.

@akistotle that is the one

@nevadacity37 It is odd and a bit troublesome that even the LSAC employees don't seem to have reached a consensus on what constitutes a chronograph watch. I don't know what this will mean how proctors will judge and assess the watches.
-
@nevadacity37 When I talked to the LSAC representative, he told he wasn't really sure and my best bet was to send an email. In this email, I talked about the functionality and even sent a picture of how the watch looks, which clearly indicates 0 to…

@RafaelBernard its an LSATMax watch but an older model without the rotating bezel. It has a crown that you can use to pause and reset the timer so I'm a bit surprised that this watch got approved.

I emailed lsac with the lsat watch i have that goes from 0-35 minutes and they informed me that this LSAT specific watch is fine for use.

@bncgjr It is common for alot of testing centers to not have clocks on display, as was the case with my center

@"Alex Divine" The fact that the Casio Watches have a moving bezel with minutes marked on it doesn't make it chronographs?
-
I took a 3 month break from studying after my 3rd take (thought it was going to be for good until LSAC stopped their retake limit) and after studying for 2 years. In the recent weeks after coming back to study i got -3 on a LR section, and been av…

Hey @"Alex Divine". Besides networking and OCI, how does one get a job in investment banking or getting entry level analyst position in a major bank?
-
Thanks everyone for the advice, @tanes256 @JustDoIt Ill be sure to implement your advice into my study plan. @"Alex Divine" I actually did that earlier in my prep and I found it helpful. I believe it helped me get a minus 4 on the LG section with th…

Does this apply to people who used up all their takes for 2016 LSAT examinations?

Alot of lawyers I personally spoke with said to avoid law school altogether as well. When I attended a prelaw conference in my undergraduate, the probate lawyer seemed burned out while the DOJ and divorce attournies seemed the most bright-eyed and e…

Harvard Law admissions stated in their FAQ that if you have both LSAT and GRE scores on file that they will report your LSAT to the ABA. Im assuming this means that scoring relatively higher in the GRE won't offset a lower LSAT

@"Stevie C" said: LSAT will still be heavily weighted into LS rankings. If you're a normal applicant, you'll still need a high LSAT score to get into HLS. What this policy allows HLS to do is accept certain URMs, well-connected individual…

So is the GRE Quant section much harder than Logic Games haha?

@danielznelson said: Wow. We're at the cusp of things really changing, it seems. I bet schools would love more numbers to choose from. And, of course, the LSAT may be going digital. Crazy times. If the LSAT does go digital like some of the o…

So if we did relatively worse in our LSAT compared to the GRE could we submit that instead

@Alejandro said: @westcoastbestcoast they are not synonymous. Thanks!

Does the "100 Largest Firms" criterion leave out other firms that may be BigLaw but aren't the top 100 biggest? Or is Big Law and top 100 Largest firms pretty much synonymous?
-
Wow Washington and Lee went up 12 ranks!
-
Hi @tanes256!. Wow 169 is very impressive!! How were you able to obtain that score increase? Was this after multiple takes?
-
@ilikephilosophy I used the Bibles when I first started out but I found the material from 7sage and Blueprint to be more instructive and intuitive for me.

Hmm I actually thought of either working in finance or consulting before I began my LSAT journey, but unfortunately I struck out during those pesky case interviews . Working in Finance or IBanking would definitely be interesting, but I'm just concer…
-
Yes @"Alex Divine" , I'm definitely thinking of doing some law related job in order to build a network. I'm from Southern California and I may have some connections to attournies in public sector through family so applying regionally may not be a ba…

Hey @"Alex Divine". I really appreciate your optimism and you reminded me the importance of really thinking about your goals for law. I'll have to deeply assess my situation and goals to see if I can keep going. Things are made more complicates by t…

Thank you @Moosader for your encouraging words. Your sentiments about setting the bar high and how you felt if you didnt meet those goals are almost exactly how i felt about myself.
