I need help with my personal statement for Law school. I have a draft already with I think some solid ideas.
I need someone to go over it, edit it, and maybe change some ideas or take the unnecessary/boring ones.
Please let me know if anyone is willing to do it. I can try to pay buttt keep in mind yalll Im brokeee now soo be reasonable pwease….
Or if you know some websites, apps that do that..
I want to start w the caveat that if this is your final attempt and for whatever reason June is necessary then this does not apply to you- but for the rust of those who are not on their last attempt and forced to do June or not attend law school, here are some thoughts:
THERE IS NO TROPHY FOR FINISHING EARLY! A 176 from November beats out a 170 from June 99 percent of the time (all things equal). With that, there is no real reason to submit in June as you can take August and still apply as apps open, and worst case take sept and still only be a few weeks after apps open (which isn’t going to make or break most ppls apps). Technically as long as you take November or earlier you are likely fine (though yes a 170 in August is better than a 170 in November).
This is a long way of saying, in my opinion, June is a really expensive pt and nothing more. I have roughly a dozen people I’m working with who scored within the 90th percentile in April that are taking it again in either June or August because why stop at a 168-171 when w a few extra months you can get 4 points higher (example not promise lol)
Overall this specific exam should be low stress, don’t make it anything it’s not, and breatheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. There’s like two weeks or so left which means there is actually time to still learn and improve some stuff before you gotta take it- so make the most out of it. Don’t let perfection be the enemy of progress!!!
Good luck to everyone and feel free to either comment or shoot me a message if u have questions on anything from actual lsat questions to just anxiety tips for how to manage that! Hope to help at least some of yall sleep a bit better next few weeks nights
It’s my fault because I didn’t rlly study and just took it, it’s basically a diagnostic.
I tried studying like I did somewhat foundations on 7sage but when I’m actually taking the test I feel like I’m forgetting everything.
Has anyone ever made a jump from 137 (basically diagnostic) to 160. Any tips? What to use? I have the Mike trainer book thing and thinking lsat demon
These questions are killing my score. I know how to answer them from a foundational standpoint but something is going wrong in my application. I just keep getting them wrong. Mainly level 4/5, sometimes 3, but not as frequently.
Hello!
I am reliably PTing between 171-173 (most commonly 171). I recognize that is a perfectly good score range and I would certainly not be upset if it translates to an actual score on test day, but because I have a low GPA and high financial need I would prefer to break into a higher score bucket to be above the LSAT median everywhere. That might not be possible, but I would like to work with a 175+ scoring tutor who can do an assessment of my analytics (I am using 7Sage and can provide you my log-in information) to see if they can identify and work with me to strengthen any consistent weak points. If we can identify a path we can work on but not sufficiently by the first week of June, I might either push back my test to or retest in August. I am flexible on pricing and scheduling.
Is anyone available and interested in working with me?
This will be my first sitting for the exam. Am I better off pushing it off or taking the exam and getting the experience of the first take out of the way? Have been studying for about 5 months.
You can drill 50 PTs and still plateau at 165 if you don't know what's actually being tested.
Most LSAT prep teaches the content. Almost none teaches the test.
Here's the whole exam in 10 slides:
— 4-section structure and how the curve actually works (one missed question at the top of the curve costs 3× what it costs at the bottom)
— All 13 LR question types, sorted into 3 families
— The conditional + quantifier logic that powers ~30–40% of LR
— The flaw catalog and the answer-trap patterns that decide every elimination
— The 4 things to track while reading every RC passage
— Timing benchmarks per section, plus the rules nobody teaches
— What separates a 165 from a 175 (it isn't more drilling)
Save it. Refer back when you study.
The full LSAT cheat sheet is too big for a single post, so the above images are just a sample.
But you can get the full LSAT cheat sheet with every conditional indicator, every flaw, every trap, every timing rule in one PDF for free HERE.
and memorizing the approach for each type to be a good use of time?
Hi -- I'm new in my LSAT studies, and would love insight from someone who is further along in their journey. DId you find yourself utilizing LR strategies while taking the LSAT?
Please provide information about best resources available for LSAT prep. How long should be take to prepare for the test? Any additional advice
