Ok that's creepy

[eljefe1]

Isn't that the point of poetry, brah?

To rationalize being creepy.

Haters gonn hate
lovers gonn love
I don't even want
none of the above...

[eljefe1]

And if it is actually creepy, that means I nailed the E.E. Cummings smell test, right??

so like not following directions on the LSAT, do we lose points for not following the directions in the OP? I feel like it's the equivalent of bubbling multiple answers or writing an essay about your cat Mr.Snuggles when the writing sample prompt was to argue for/against pursuing a graduate degree. Writing samples may not be graded but admissions folks see them...

[eljefe1]

OH Christine
later today has become tonight
when will we be able to share in the delight
of seeing what kind of RC en-light
that Manhattan LSAT can ignite?

[Nonconsecutive]

I realize the deadline has passed, but I wanted to try to write a haiku for fun

Missed haiku challenge
Thought all were being silly
My RC is fail

What the fuck

[Christine (MLSAT)]

And now, ladies and gentlemen, the moment you have all been waiting for! The following six winners will receive one of the two new books (contingent on their SOLEMN PINKY SWEAR to review the book here!):





For simplicity in poetry, and sheer honesty:

I hope that I get
a free book because I can't
afford the new one

For willful blindness, and intense intentional naivete:

Reading. Boring now
But attorneys never read
Monotonous texts.........right?

For extraordinary obsequiousness in the face of peer pressure:

If I score a 180

If I believe
in a perfect score be sure
of this
it is
because you have loved me,
Christine and Manhattan LSAT

-- E. E. El Jefe

For the most specific passage references in a single haiku:

OH HAIKU TIME:

Oh dental caries
in those riddled basins flow
talk story times up

For rising to the challenge of the avant-garde:

running out, into

elle sat quiet-
ly, waiting for (patiently)
the strike of
dawn, graphite, completeness

rustling not feathers
but
minds (overcome with dreams)
stagnation aversion
perversion

e.e.

And finally, for sheer grotesqueness:

brain is now jello

seriously, I taste it

dripping through sinus

CONGRATULATIONS to all the winners, and a heartfelt cheer for all who threw their hats in the ring! I will be in touch with each winner via PM to let you know which book you have won and work out the details of getting it to you!

You seriously didn't give me a prize? Did you see how many I wrote. Holy crap

[Christine (MLSAT)]

I'm sorry, manillabay! There were so many submissions that were excellent, and we just don't have enough books to give out!!

[eljefe1]

Hooray to Manhattan LSAT! Hooray to the participants! Hooray to the victors!

[manillabay]

I'm never buying manhattan again

[Christine (MLSAT)]

I'm never buying manhattan again

To be fair, you may have lost a number of points for confusing me with BPLaura.

[eljefe1]

I'm never buying manhattan again

In civility thou seem'st so empty, manillabay.

[rebexness]

Awe yeah.

[manillabay]

Awe yeah.

GTFO

[eljefe1]

Awe yeah.

THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYIN'!!!

[Mauve.Dino]

OMFG, wow, thank you! I love you, Manhattan!!

You didn't have to do this, so I definitely appreciate it!

[eljefe1]

I wasn't even thinking of getting an RC guide for LSAT prep...

The 4th Edition RC guide is, how do I say it? Absolutely amazing. I consider myself a very strong reader, and frankly I did't think I would need this guide, let alone any RC guide, to help me prepare for the RC section. Well, if you feel this way, as I did, do yourself a favor: just get the damn book. I've only just skimmed the first few chapters and I've already gained so much valuable information, along with an ENTIRELY new way of approaching RC. From the very beginning of the guide, where the MLSAT tutors describe the method of "reading for the scale", I was hooked. Along with the awesome strategies, there are multiple "drill" sections where you can immediately test MLSAT's advice on legit LSAT RC passages and questions. Good stuff. No... GREAT STUFF!!!

Do yourself a favor and just get it. https://www.manhattanlsat.com/storeitem ... 61&catid=1

I'm even considering buying the logical reasoning guide. we shall see...
