Re: December 2013 Retakers
How does one go about doing this? My test center is fairly busy, and I'm not convinced they'd let me/be able to let me use the room.dosto5 wrote:Retaking and might go so far as to do it at my test center in the same desk.

Are you guys retaking it then BR or just blind reviewing?

Quick question - do you guys think it would be worth it to hire a private tutor now for the December test?

Re: December 2013 Retakers
So much this. But tbh I probably would just because of my epic choke. I KNOW I can do better, so I'd probably need to prove that to myself. But man would a 3.9 be reassuring right now...bee wrote:yupmelodygreenleaf wrote:Same here.

I'd have to say I'm most curious about #1if i had a 3.9 i wouldnt even bother with a retake, lol

Re: December 2013 Retakers
This is such a weird retake thread. Most of the other ones have a good chunk of kids who struggle with the LSAT but have super high GPAs. Everyone in here seems like absolute LSAT allstars (not to say their GPAs aren't solid as well). Put me in the other camp, 3.97 but limped in at 165.
Does anyone still want to do a review of 70 tonight or has everyone swayed to the Tuesday camp??

Tuesday camp by the looks of it. But that shouldn't stop you from reviewing. At this point, I feel like I get more out of reviews than I do from PTing. (Maybe that's because reviews ALWAYS end with me feeling good.)webbdp3 wrote:This is such a weird retake thread.

Also, in light of the poll. How does one compute his LSDAS GPA from his normal GPA?

Posting my schedule for the weekend so I can be accountable to someone on it.
Tonight (friday) - finishing my review of MLSAT LR books before I am allowed to do anything fun
Tomorrow (Saturday) - taking a 5-section PT64 in semi-real-life test day conditions. then Blind review. Also going to steal the idea of writing out why each answer is right or wrong for LR, PMT
Sunday - Drilling all the types of questions I missed and rereading their section in either MLSAT or trainer. also doing a section or two of LR
Monday - PT70 after work and blind review

If it makes you feel better I was all but ready to sign a contract with the devil for something north of 170-- pen just ran out of ink.

on days that I actually study? 4-6hrs. The last few days? Maybe a hour or two if I'm being generous. I feel like even the 4-6hrs isn't enough but I'm worried about burning out...PourMeTea wrote:Damn.

Re: December 2013 Retakers
You sound like me. 3.9+ and bombed the LSAT with a 165 -- after a 174 PT average. I'm trying to handle the nerves that killed me on test day, but I'm not really sure how.webbdp3 wrote:This is such a weird retake thread.

Was 165 a realistic score for you based on your PTs?

eta: seeing all the 3.9s in this thread is making me MAD. JELLY. i wish i could punch my ug self in the face.
Given my PTing history, my score band is 168-174, so even more evidence in favor of the retake in addition to the obvious ones (HYS, scholarships).
