I love you guys Forum

Seriously. I don't know where I would be right now without TLS. While I put in a ton of work TLS made sure it was the right kind of work.


I got a 157 my first LSAT in sep09 on some halfass studying. I decided to wait a cycle and retake.

17 months later and after a 164 I got a 167 in Dec. While TLS's obsession with scoring in the 98-99% percentile is unhealthy and morbid at best it is a good motivating factor - I had many friends with stellar GPAs take the LSAT once , score sub 160 and say they were done.

I had to delay my score reaction for 2+ hours as I was inside the Verizon store. Going out tonight to celebrate and I want to thank every one of you. Seeya tomorrow, and just remember those of you who didnt score where they want to - with enough work you CAN achieve your goal as long as its realistic.

Congrats!

I came here to say the same thing. I took a cold diagnostic test with Princeton Review two years ago and scored a 147. I got my 168 back today. A year ago I was happy that I was PTing at 159 and the people that posted on this forum made me realize that I was selling myself short.


Thank you all.

[LSAT Blog]

Congrats to both of you! Just goes to show that with hardcore studying, significant improvements can happen.

[SrLaw]

Agreed.

I owe this forum my 167.

I got a shitty score on my ACT because I refused to study and had no work ethic. This forum really motivated me.

[mottainai]

Ditto. Some people may badmouth how the default answer on TLS is "retake," but I probably would've settled with a low 160s score had I not found this forum. I got a 170 on the Dec LSAT.

Tough love works. *fist bump*

[jazzmastersc]

I agree completely. When I signed up for the Oct 10 test I didn't know if I would motivate myself to study and found myself distracted after just 1 LR section. Even though I eventually canceled my Oct. score I had 20+ PTs under my belt on test day thanks mostly to TLS overachievers. To all the condescending, pretentious, and spastic TLS posters: thank you my new friends. But for this crazy forum, I would not have refreshed LSAC every 5 seconds for a solid hour to receive my 170 today!
Off to the admissions forum after a night of celebration.

Congrats guys. TLS is a very good motivator

[Bildungsroman]

It's nice to see one thread on TLS that isn't filled with or predicated upon rage, bitchiness, and condescension. Congrats on the scores, everybody.

[futurej.d.]

I'm beginning to agree. At first I thought that this forum might throw me off my game if I visited it to frequently during prep because everyone here is so hardcore, but all of you guys are actually really motivating and really make me want to score 170+.

Congrats to everyone who got the score they wanted, and good luck to those re-writing or considering alternative career paths.

[Fast_Fingers]

Congratulations. Success is defined by yourself, and I hope you get into a good school.

[s0ph1e2007]

Congrats everyone!! Seeing people happy with their LSATs is really nice

[DoubleChecks]

congrats on the scores guys!

while i didnt find TLS till after I had taken my LSAT, it was still a great resource for the app process...and i still constantly learn a lot of things from the site

sure some threads get trolled, and there are flamers and mean e-people , but if you approach it w/ the right attitude (a resource in the form of an online forum), i think it'll pay dividends

[Icculus]

Agreed. Without this forum I never would have known what I should be shooting for. Thanks for helping me go from a 165 last February to a 173 in December! Thanks for the motivation!

Retake.

[Chimica]

I also agree. I would have been pretty happy with a top 10 percent after I diagnosed at 160. In fact, I was pretty happy with my initial 160.

After time on this forum, my June 166 was obviously sub-par. Now I'm pretty happy with my December 171.
