Hey all, new here. Well, sorta. Been a lurker for 4 years and finally deciding to sit down and study.

Just finished my third or fourth full length PT since I've started studying in the past few weeks and I think I'm toast for the next few hours. What do y'all do to relax after a full-length test?

About to hit up some chapters in the Trainer for RC, see if what everyone rave's about has some merit to it..

It's part of a Chris Pontius quote from Jackass. Something like ""Does party boy prefer men or women? It doesn't matter to party boy, when a bear is hungry, he'll eat."

Yeah I knew what it was from lol. I grew up wishing I could be on Jackass with my idols. Party boy was always my favorite skit. Pontius and Steve-O made an excellent duo.

It's 93 outside, but I'm stuck indoors studying for finals.

rc today is making me rethink my life choices

I did some RC today and did fairly well!

I feel like it finally has clicked for me, and I actually ended up ditching the heavy notation strategy. It helped a lot with very specific detail questions but it screwed me a bit with overall structure questions.

Hello all,
Been lurking on this forum for a while now, bit the bullet and decided to join in! Just graduated and have all summer for studying, I bought the PS series and all PTs on amazon. Is there anything else I might need? I haven't taken a PT yet either but was thinking about the TestMasters course since I have the funds for it atm.

@Anon/Alex; all of that is fair and, realistically, I wouldn't mention that in a letter and was mostly venting.

That said... I think a lack of congeniality may be too generous but the words I would use are probably too harsh. To me, it was more that there was not even any form of apology or anything of that sort. I agree that it was a small oversight but I think it was handled poorly further.

To me, it's mostly disconcerting (and has been colored by) Georgetown doing some other kind of weird stuff like seemingly (and willingly) negging their waitlisted candidates. That's sort of what's coloring my perception of the misstep. I would also say that administration and support staff (i.e. career services) are quite important for a law school and is relevant but it's a hard thing to ferret out and all are likely similar. I understand it's different groups, but that with the combination of the other sketchy admitting stuff is, IMO, a bad indication of how much they care about students. Again, I understand the gaps in what I'm saying, but it's shifted my default of trusting that they are supportive of students to being uncertain.

Finally, what Alex said is 100% right. Ultimately, I'm in at a better school than Georgetown with significant money and a low COL. I don't know that I'd consider Georgetown for less than $30,000 over my Duke offer (I haven't crunched the numbers to know exactly but it'd definitely be in the five figures), and I don't see that happening. Living in DC doesn't have a value to me.
