The data isn't being observed over a long enough period of time. In the stimulus, how are we to know that those nine-year-olds who can recognize the logos of different cigarette brands will grow up to smoke at a much higher rate than those who cannot recognize the logos?
A) Is parallel because the observation period is only three months, not long enough to measure the effects of mercury poisoning. 1023

I can chose blemish cover or bandages in "flesh" color and have them more or less match my skin. I'm not being sarcastic (well, not completely). 1025
Where should I go next fall? / Re: W&L 1L Taking Questions« on: September 19, 2007, 10:52:59 AM »
How's the living situation, both in price and quality?
How's Lexington? How's [insert thing about W&L that you'd wish someone would ask]? 1026
Personal Statement / Re: Addendum Neccessary?« on: September 19, 2007, 10:48:27 AM »
I would. Having lots of P/Fs on your transcript isn't typically a good thing, but if you add an addendum they'll know it was standard policy (and the addendum will also draw more attention to a cool Extracurricular). Just make sure they're all Ps and not Fs.

Studying for the LSAT / Re: Are the scores on this site for real???« on: September 19, 2007, 10:39:33 AM »
I'm not taking issue with making fun of Cooley. In fact, I thought eveman's riddles were funny.
It's just that every time someone asks a question on LSD, The Truth is right behind, saying "Have fun at Cooley," or "They'll take that score at Cooley," or "OMGWTF COOOLI IS TEH SUXXORZ!!!11!" The repetitiveness of the stock phrases takes the magic out of mocking Cooley. When it is mocked, it should be mocked well, and it should be mocked for good reasons. Quote from: Lindbergh I know people from Cooley who are far more successful than anyone on this board will ever be. Props. We should all start our days with such a healthy dose of perspective. 1029

You need to do a few practice tests under proctored conditions (get a friend to help you out, reserve a room in the library, etc.).
On test day, you won't have time to recharge between sections. LSAC's goal is to fry your brain halfway through the LSAT so you screw up. Your job is to have prepared your brain enough so it won't be fried. The only way to do that is to practice taking three-hour exams. Good luck. |
