Re: The Official September 2017 Study Group
That one dude had to have had seriously awful apps. I mean, I produced an okay app and cleaned up, regardless of the lack of consistency, pretty good. With okay LSAT numbers. Maybe my PS sold me above bottom t13 a bit, perhaps the story that sold me to Chicago is also what made 15-11 think twice on whether they could get me. Why did I get into Chicago?!? I may never know. But it'll always be a feather in my cap even though I won't be attending

Thanks! I played a narrative throughout my app and I definitely think it helped. Rugged American, blue collar, rising up from an agricultural/manufacturing lifestyle. Definitely true if you've followed my posts at alljagerbom79 wrote:Thats why i don't stress over stats or other people's cycles...anything can happen! and you should be proud; Chicago is a great schoolchargers21 wrote:That one dude had to have had seriously awful apps.

Re: The Official September 2017 Study Group
Is there no way for your teacher to let you take it earlier or later? No way a professor would be that cruel to you!Mikey wrote:I have mine next week and I'll probably be studying on my phone the whole time since my school is stupid af and decided to do graduation during finals week..thus, making me have an exam 3 hrs before the ceremony and another final the day after. thanks schooldj9i27 wrote:PrezRand wrote:Graduation is lame

Re: The Official September 2017 Study Group
doesn't really matter, I'd still have to take the final that same day, but the longer I'm there the more annoyed I'll be since I would have to wait for my family to come to the school for my ceremony. I would just prefer to take it later since I'm sure ill finish it quick and then just wait maybe 2 hrs for my fam to show up. So dumb that they did all of this during finals week though, I seriously don't get itclueless801 wrote:Is there no way for your teacher to let you take it earlier or later?

Re: The Official September 2017 Study Group
That's absolutely ridiculous!!! Last year I had to take an exam the morning of graduation and that was bad. I can't imagine one being completely after the ceremony. I've never heard of that. That shouldnt be allowed. My roomate didn't get a grade in one class for 2 bloody months after we had graduated. It was insane.... Schools you think would get that shit together you knowMikey wrote:I have mine next week and I'll probably be studying on my phone the whole time since my school is stupid af and decided to do graduation during finals week..thus, making me have an exam 3 hrs before the ceremony and another final the day after. thanks schooldj9i27 wrote:PrezRand wrote:Graduation is lame

Thanks man! Yeah it makes no sense and what professor isnt kind enough to realize that and move the final exam to an earlier date as an option...Mikey wrote:2 months?? holy crap...jagerbom79 wrote:That's absolutely ridiculous!!!

Re: The Official September 2017 Study Group

I promise you I will be more active here and the FB group come next week when I am studying LSAT full time, just relaxing at home. I have been drowning in work the last few months and really just focused on crushing it. I tend to get severely distracted by social media so i tend to eliminate as much of it as i can during times when i need to be super focused.

Re: The Official September 2017 Study Group
Man, I feel for ya! My very last semester, I had a teacher who didn't budge on letting me take the final before commencement. I also live away from school without a car. My family came up for the ceremony, took the majority of my belongings, and then left me behind because I still had to take this stupid exam. Coincidentally, this class was the only class I did not get an A in that semester because I didn't do so well on the final.

When you people say they work a few hours on weekends at a firm, does that typically involve being at the office or just working from home?

Re: The Official September 2017 Study Group
I havent worked at a law firm, but in finance its pretty lax especially if the firms give you laptops and you dont work on a desktop. I went in during the summer as a preference but it didnt really matter as long as the work got done. I guess it just depends if its solo work or you need to work with other ppl or use resources at the office etcAlexandros wrote:When you people say they work a few hours on weekends at a firm, does that typically involve being at the office or just working from home?
