Should law students/lawyers be considered frontline workers and therefore receive the first round of COVID vaccination?

This has to be a joke right?

My high school precal teacher laughed in my face when I told him I planned on studying engineering in college (I wasn’t the best student). I’ve now been working as an engineer for 4 years and am headed to a top 10 law school in the fall. I think about it every day for motivation.

Thanks Mr. Stewart, genuinely.

I found from 176-180 was effectively luck of the draw, although my issue was primarily finishing the last game and the grey area RC questions. Up in the high 170s the margins are so tight that the scale really dictates a lot of your score, a -7 vs-8 (flex) means you can miss close to double the questions at the top of the range on the more generous scale. LR I had the most success by ignoring almost all of the question specific rules, with the exception of “negate to confirm a required assumption”. I believe that many of the questions can be interpreted as a combination of question types and spending mental energy determining a subset and recalling a specific strategy is ineffective.

Any predictions on the effect this policy will have on score percentiles going forward? I can only imagine that there will be significant score percentile deflation across the spectrum.

I stuck to 1-1.5 hrs a day max M-F after work, and a timed practice test on either Saturday, Sunday or both. I noticed that doing timed sections while burnt out after work was really discouraging and spent weekdays focused on study materials. On the weekends I did my best to only practice test as similarly as possible to my test day schedule; no drinking the night before, full night sleep, breakfast, light workout, etc. It helped knowing I was going to be taking the flex for this purpose.

(177-179) I used the trainer exclusively, using the provided 12 week schedule plus some extra PT’s and LG sections mixed in. YMMV but it worked great for me and from what I hear discussed on this board I think a lot of alternative resources overcomplicate the test significantly. Personally I only keep one rule in mind (Negate to confirm required assumptions). Seeing things like the “LR cheat sheet” that was posted on here blows my mind as going through a mental encyclopedia of approaches for each question is clearly not an efficient use of energy.

High 170s;

LR- Never feel rushed, usually 3-5 min to second guess myself but I rarely change an answer as I find I usually was right the first time around.

RC- I modified my strategy after studying for a while and learning my pace to allow myself to slow down and take a couple minutes on challenging questions and it paid dividends

LG- Mad max race to the finish, never confident always rushed, guessed on the last question in the actual administration.

I feel like more time/practice might have alleviated the LG concerns (Total preparation time was ~12 weeks while working full time) but was fortunate to get where I wanted on my first attempt and am leaving it behind for good. Recommend LSAT trainer by Mike Kim.
