Paying off debt through tutoring as incentive to get 170+?

Post by chicagodude » Thu May 13, 2010 1:41 am

Hey guys, has anybody tried to get a tutoring job as incentive to get 170+ (or whatever the bar is now- 175?)? After teaching the LSAT, I imagine one's score will also go up, so one can retake it again after some months and likely see a jump. Sounds like a plan?

I can see how scoring in the 170s would definitely open up some doors for tutoring jobs, but who would want to take it again after getting that score? Especially because if you're scoring in the 170s, you probably know the test inside and out, and are just missing questions because of idiotic mistakes. (says the guy who smacked himself in the face after looking at his answer printout)

But if you're just masochistic enough, it might work........

Just don't mention that goal if you end up working for Kaplan or whatever. I made the mistake of opening my big mouth and enquiring about that, and they didn't seem to like the idea.
