Top Law Schools

As internationals, because we lack one great component in our evaluation, those outside the pure LSAT numbers may matter a bit more (they will even read your writing sample LOL). But still, your cancellations and absences are unlikely to keep you out, and can easily be compensated by one or two more points on your highest LSAT.

Edit: you -> we and your -> our

My advice would be to work on your English a bit more. I realize grammar isn't completely necessary in an LSAT cancellation question advice thread, but coherence is. A specific score won't make you ineligible to apply. You can apply wherever you want. They'll take your money and with a big "thank you", send you a deny letter. I think the best advice would be to take the LSAT and actually keep your score. Dunno what led you to think that canceling it was necessary, but you won't be able to go to law school until you get at least one score, so there's that.

I see that you ended your sentence with a preposition. My advice would be to "work on your English a bit more."

Cool shtick...Except I'm not the one asking for advice and my statement was coherent. Ending a sentence in a preposition is colloquial and, though it may be frowned upon, is acceptable in conversation.

Eta: English =/= grammar necessarily. Also, this was just to clarify the possible usage of end sentence prepositions. Like the poster below me, I am unaware of which sentence ends in a preposition.

Which sentence ended with a preposition?

LOL. You guys are interesting people to talk to.

My sincere advice would be: (1) do not take the test until you feel absolutely ready and (2) don't cancel again. Unless you really truly fucked up (i.e., had to take a shit and missed half of a section or forgot to bubble a section), there's no point in cancelling; the highest score is generally the only one considered. Give yourself a chance to at least see how you can fair on the test, which is something you haven't done thus far.

Also, for what it's worth, any grammarian will tell you that stranded prepositions are perfectly acceptable.

"That is a rule up with which I will not put."

10/10

Thank you all for kind responses.

To lymenheimer: So sorry for my bad English. You are absolutely right. I will try to work on my English a bit more and will post grammatically correct message on the online forum.

This. More is not a preposition. If you're going to be a jackass, at least do it right. Otherwise you risk coming off as a dumbass. (Sorry for ending that last sentence in a preposition.)

I guess both of you encountered some setback IRL

You people really love dichotomies. OPs English is worse than ending a sentence with a proposition. I don't even know what a proposition is and I did just fine on the lsat and thus far in law school. I don't however know of anyone who writes like OP crushing the lsat and law school. Both of those things require a high level of reading comprehension which in turn requires strong language skills. Perhaps he could have been gentler, but he's not wrong...

Yea. This is basically what I was getting at. Idk why my grammar was scrutinized when I said nothing about grammar. Anyways. Good luck to the OP on his future tests. May he never feel the need to cancel his score again.

Maybe you should take your own advice before you use a tired myth to try and insult someone.
