Where should I go next fall? / Re: 3.8 GPA / 156 LSAT« on: October 31, 2008, 04:59:48 PM »
Given your desire to stay in the West, I'd recommend USD. I think you'll be competitive for the school. I live in SD and I LOVE their campus. That's where I took my LSAT.

Como, that's what I thought. Those low acceptance rates play a role in rankings do they not?

169, 3.74
I got an email from Harvard encouraging me to apply, but I'm not sure why exactly. Both of my numbers are below their averages and I'm a white male. Is there even a blind shot in the dark chance? 17
Law School Applications / Re: List of Most Painless Apps« on: October 31, 2008, 01:28:06 AM »How is Penn painless? They require that "why Penn" essay. Easy is Virginia I'm sure the success rate of people getting accepted without doing it is extremely high. How "optional" is it really? 18

I'd say you're definitely competitive for UW. I'm applying there too. What is LC?

Studying for the LSAT / Re: When to take the LSAT« on: October 30, 2008, 06:43:20 PM »
Take the LSAT on a date when you have ample time to study for it. Many take the June exam for this reason because the October administration falls right in the middle of the fall semester.
I found the books and self-study to be sufficient for me. The way you can find out where you stand is go to LSAC.org and download and print their copy of the June 2007 LSAT for free. Take the test timed and calculate the score. If it is below 160 or so, I would recommend taking a prep class. The LSAT Games Bible helps immensely too. The book focuses solely on games and really improved my score. 20
Studying for the LSAT / Re: My friends, I need advice« on: October 30, 2008, 05:25:59 PM »
I would advise a retake. In these coming months, identify your weakest areas and focus solely on those for a while. Take a class if you have not already done so. If games are one of your weaknesses, buy the Games Bible. Take tons of practice tests, some untimed and others timed. You can get the score up.
