How sad is it that I find trolling this forum more interesting than chilling on a beach?

What do you mean by "trolling" this forum?

Just, like, conversing. Haha, definitely not trolling-trolling.

Just did 4 sections of RC. Feel like someone took a baseball bat to my head. I dont think I'm going to be able to look at reading the same way due to the LSAT. So traumatizing.

shit... 16 passages?? That's insane. I did 8 LG games (all in/out with subcategories) and realized I def need to drill more if I want to do well on LG.

Yeah, shit was rough. I wanted to test out my stamina (in addition to the fact RC is basically the only unused material I have left), because I felt mentally exhausted 3/5ths into the Dec test, and that kind of worried me.

I used to hate In & Out games - trying to keep track of all the conditionals was a real bitch.

Thats a lot of RC I think I did 10 passages in a row once and thought that was rough

i MIGHT take the February exam (my third time). I used Powerscore Bibles and Manhattan LG and the Cambridge Difficult Drilling packet, is there anything else I should use to reinforce everything? My weakness is definitely LR.

What's considered a "weak" score for ya?

Manhattan LG is the worst of the Manhattans. Maybe expand outside of the difficult drilling packet? Does that come with PTs?

Wow, I have a hard time even doing 2 sections of RC. This motivates me! Maybe I'll do 3 sections of RC for the first time... just maybe..

Biglaw. My house in the Hamptons isn't going to buy itself.

[20170322]

Haha, so are you just trying to go to the best t14 for the least debt?

Working with real estate in socal.

Yes. Or just find a sugar daddy and quit all this shit.

In all seriousness, I'm aiming for a school that has a lot of ties in Asia since I've just come back from China after three years and I'd like to get all Dan Harris in this bitch. UMich, NYU, and Georgetown are looking the most appealing to me.

Yay, someone else looking for a unicorn job!

I would LOVE to work in the DOJ, but I have literally no clue on what it would take to get there. I also don't know if it'd be smart to do
lower t14 for under 100k debt--> biglaw--> DOJ, or
HYS--> ADA on LRAP--> DOJ on LRAP

Haha, yeah. I'm just shooting the shit. But it is interesting to get peoples' perspectives on this stuff.

Lol I completely feel you. I used to overplan like crazy as well. I mean look at my username for fucks sake. I decided 4 years ago, as a freshman in undergrad, that I'm definitely going to go to Columbia and then proceed to definitely get accepted and work as a Big-Law attorney - my life is set. But now I'm just not sure whats going to happen. I dont think I really understood the hours that BL attorneys put in until I actually saw them put in those hours, and thats when I just changed my mindset to take things a bit more slowly. I have no idea what school I'm eventually going to go to, or what I'm going to end up doing (gov sounds the most appealing right now but I havent ruled out biglaw - shit for all I know, I might not get either). I'm def interested in law, so I know that...but thats it. I've been telling myself just try your best in the LSAT, and we can figure it out from there.

If I go into law I'll want to work in intellectual property. I'm a nerd and like science haha

Fellow science nerd here

I'm jealous of you STEM folks. I'm pretty interested in patents/copyrights/trademark sort of things but don't quality for the patent bar exam. :/
