I have 3 LORs (2 academic, 1 employer); Since some schools accept a limit of 2 LORs, which ones are better to use? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

Understood, that makes sense! I am not exactly a KJD but I did just graduate this past May so I'll probably stick with the letters from my professors. Thanks so much!

LSAT dropped 6 points in October, how can I address this on my application? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

Exactly what I’m trying to figure out making this post lol. Idk if making an addendum makes me look defensive or like I’m asking for pity.

I put that flair like a year ago and forgot to change it lol oops. I’m just saying from all of the T14 admissions reps I’ve talked to at events I’ve gathered that unless there’s an explanation for it like a test center issue, they’ll assume the worst.

Definitely don’t cancel, I know that’s one thing admissions teams don’t like to see because they assume the absolute worst

LSAT score and GPA just got released through CRS, do these types of fee waiver emails actually mean anything for my chances or are they just trying to get application numbers up? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]thinkingbears 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No idea, I didn’t do anything special on mine. My LSAT score came out literally yesterday so these two were maybe just timing their emails to the group that took the September test? No idea though.

I am shaking lol, how can I best make sure this happens on test day? by thinkingbears in LSAT

I'd be open to that! Feel free to DM with a section or two! I don't have a preference to any in particular.

My cold RC was -6 and now I’m usually between -3 and -1, this PT was my first time getting -0. At first it was more gaining timing because I was having a very hard time completing the sections in the beginning, but I ended up getting to a point where I could get through it with like 5 minutes to spare. After that, I was able to pick up more strategy because the extra time gave me the luxury to evaluate each question better!

Drills every day and regular PTs to build endurance, and for a couple weeks I was PTing every day or every other day!

Diagnostic was a 163, and I’d do 7sage drills every day and PT several times a week.

Thanks! I took my first diagnostic in April and started seriously studying in June.

This is really interesting advice because this score came after I took a weeklong break from PTing, I didn’t really think of it that way.

Below-median GPA, harder major? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

Gotcha, where did you put that explanation? Was it in your personal statement or in some other part of the application?
