Things LSAC people don't like:
Middle Eastern art. Kids. American popular music. Weapons and firearms. India. Materials science. Fast food chains.

Surprised no one has stated the big elephant in the room.... Well I'll go ahead... African American history passages... It honestly does seem as though every RC section is either about Thurgood Marshall, Martin Luther King Jr., W.E.B. Du Bois, or the civil rights era....

High cholesterol, automobiles, inhumane experiments on animals, and abstract ethical principles. Every time I see an argument presented by an "essayist" or "ethicist" I brace for impact.
Oh, and Latin American/Mexican literature for RC
