Yeah, the whole game was quite disappointing; I was pretty sure Manny was going to win. Mayweather wants to retire with zero loses, so petty strategies like this is no surprise.

This is one of the things I love about RC, soo much random information.

That's the dilemma these days. Everything is made to look "sexy", and I don't just mean the products and services for sale. Its looses the margin of whats reality and perception.

Work is becoming super rough, so I have no idea how I'm going to study this time around, hoping third time is a charm

Welcome to the club velvet! If you just took the last exam, you should totally take few weeks off; get wasted, travel or something along the lines.

Some user posted all of the LSAT prep tests on reddit with a title

"Don't support the LSAC racket. Pirate preptests (link to tests 1-74 on piratebay)"

I know we should be cautious on what we post online, for it may come back to bite us.

>What are your thoughts on sharing perp materials that are protected?

>What are the risks involved in posting such materials on TLS?

>And, if someone misuses my post to illegally download those prep tests, can I be held accountable?

IP law is among my interests, so I'd love your input (even if its just opinions or theories' interpretation).

Thanks Mars!
LOL, I'm going to try.
I have not seen my score, but I figured since I am not applying until next year a third try is inevitable.

My prep materials will get their own checked bag. Don't you dare lose it United.

You're back!!

Also, Rigo, this tar change - though incredibly reflective of how you look IRL - is really throwing me off. I used to skim through with a grinch in mind.

For all the retakers - given the "long" time between now and D-Day, how are you planning your schedules?

I am back! Got some WE and I've been relaxing and doing productive stuff. How have your studies been?

Regarding th LSAT stuff on Reddit, I don't see the point in that post. You can easily find all the stuff online nowadays.

Hey bb. <3
Just mixing it up.

And I'm starting early-mid january with 2 PT's planned a week, tons of drilling, and zero alcohol.

Looking forward to June thread if you're back in full force Shakalakalaka.

Doing the same. With excercise and balance. I burned out last year and it hurt me. Definitely feel a lot better.

I still read your username as "undo stress"

Rigo · Post by **Rigo** » Mon Dec 28, 2015 5:20 pm

Exercise for me too. My main thing is I need to stick to my schedule. I slacked off big time on my first go.

unodostres · Post by **unodostres** » Mon Dec 28, 2015 5:25 pm

Lol, safe to say I was under stress.

Sticking to consistency and balance is key for me. Really need to remember that and not freak. I had too much on my mind even going into the exam.

Lol, or you could just restrain yourself and use it only once a day or two. That's what I do. Being here aids my motivation, but I don't want to spend too much time on anything but my prep.

Hoping I start studying mainly in the mornings when TLS is boring. FOMO at night.

I thought you were considering sitting in February?

Also, 2 of my coworkers are taking it in June as well. They're both taking it at Brooklyn. Should I ... or no? Positive: I would know what to expect since I've done it there twice before. Negative: PTSD.

Thoughts?

I don't wanna talk to anyone day of.

You've hated Brooklyn every other time, so why put yourself through that. Try to get into somewhere else with good reviews.
& no to February cuz I want a 179 (suck it Greentee)
