I hope I never get tired of watching snowflakes melt. Cheapest entertainment there is.

I'm sure your community really needs help from a spoiled little bro who has to put in years of effort to crack a 160 (which btw will still only get you into a shit sucking dumpster fire of a "law school" at a price that will drain all of this alleged "money" and force you to barist/suck dick to pay for your home-van's parking space down by the river when you graduate jobless)

You're really going to win some battles for the little guy

In your defense this is really funny.

But seriously man you're out of touch, thinking too shorterm and close minded, only going along with conventional wisdom.

And it did not take me 2 years, I studied on and off for two years, but only took about 5 pt's before the test.

maybe you should consider actually studying for the LSAT if you want to be an attorney

especially if you want to be the kind of attorney that doesn't make enough money to pay back $260k in loans (or 10% for ten/twenty years)

@rg, i like how you edited out "so take that, bitch", or something to that effect

Your unconventional wisdom seems to be working well

Useless at best, hurtful at worst

I had a couple relatively intense logic courses, but I learned everything I used on the LSAT from Manhattan/PS. The logic sections in those books are sufficient.

In addition to being a waste of time, look at what a logic course did to McAvoy. He might have even been a cool dude before the logic course

This guy is Exhibit A of my "pre-law philosophy majors are the worst" argument

this thread got great fast

Yeah McAvoy is going to shoot up his school apparently. I feel like someone should be alerted.

I felt that the intro to formal logic course I took gave me a good foundation to lsat material.

Unbelievable. I emailed this guy a bunch of outlines, and now he insults me on an internet message board. I'm appalled. OP, you should reconsider going to law school. Reason: people like McAvoy.

I am certain of your identity. You're that stuffy, polo-wearing guy who always blabs to professors about your UG research and tries to cite Wagner (pronouncing it V-agner, so douchey) (who is a fucking composer) in every Torts class. Wager has nothing to do with Torts, and it's a stretch of the imagination to think that his "Flight of the Valkyries" has anything to do with a tortfeasor fleeing the scene. Also, no one cares that your various publications on migratory birds.

It doesn't even stop there. You're like the ultimate podium troll. At the close of each class, one needn't doubt that you will take five steps and post up at the podium, asking banal questions to which the answer is always "Yes," confirming each line of your tediously handwritten notes that require you to spend an inordinate time parsing because you write too small and write with a god damned feather pen.

What the hell is going on?

What the hell is going on?

Are you talking about the consensus that a logic class will not help, or are you talking about the fact that McAvoy is the worst kind of gunner?

Let me answer your question directed at someone else with a question of my own: Which one do you think is more wtf-worthy?

dude not cool you're going to out me

First, the battle in this thread is hilarious.

Second, I'd say taking a logic class could be somewhat beneficial.

If you're taking an intro class, it will be a weird mix of philosophy majors and kids who suck at math and think logic is an easier way of fulfilling their math requirement. That means it will probably be an easy A. If it's an upper level class, it could be extremely difficult, and not an easy A at all. Use caution and consult ratemyprofessor.com before signing up for such a class.

Now it's true that you're not going to be doing formal proofs or discussing number theory, the philosophy math, etc., on the LSAT, but I do think those activities sharpen your mind, and that will benefit you both on the LSAT and in life generally.

I disagree with the "it's like taking Latin for the SAT" analogy. OP probably means some "intro to logic" course that should be super easy for anyone who's mentally equipped for law school. Even if he means an advanced course, that's still not as arduous as studying a high school language for years.

So, is a logic course a substitute for LSAT prep? Absolutely not. But if you need another class and it fits in your schedule, you might as well take it. It's not going to hurt, and it will help at least a little bit.
