Where should I go next fall? / Re: In at suffolk - question for admits« on: February 07, 2005, 10:37:45 PM »
I didn't get any from them. And I haven't seen anybody list any money from them either. I get the impression they are pretty stingy and that's how they paid for their shiny new building.

Where should I go next fall? / Re: Brooklyn or Northeastern?« on: February 05, 2005, 10:57:42 PM »
<I'd choose Northeastern... but maybe that's just because I love the Boston Bruins.
< With the lockout that reasoning just isn't going to work man. But it's nice to hear that maybe another human being in this country misses hockey like I do. I'd go with everybody else--where you want to work should drive your decision more than anything else. They are both good schools. 43
Acceptances / Re: In at NYLS« on: February 05, 2005, 06:52:08 PM »
The cost is a bit offputting. I had been pretty sure I wouldn't want to take on the debt burden that NYLS basically guarantees--but the surprising scholarship offer from them does change things a bit. Of course, I've still got 5 more to hear back from so I guess I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
Do you think NYLS gives out these scholarships with the idea that a 3.2 will be difficult to maintain? I'd be curious to see the statistics of how many people offered these scholarships actually keep them through all 3 years. 44
Wait List / Re: Well it finally came....« on: February 05, 2005, 04:44:53 PM »
I don't think its a rejection. They want to see how many higher numbered people they can get first. If they don't get as many as they think they will, then you get the shot.
I think I'm headed for the waitlist/deferral category too. I'm retaking the LSAT next Saturday in an attempt to boost my profile. 45
Acceptances / Re: In at NYLS« on: February 05, 2005, 04:38:59 PM »
Just got my letter as well. In with $20K (Dean's Scholar program). I think it requires keeping a 3.2 GPA to keep the money.

Sorry to hear it...good luck with your other schools.

Studying for the LSAT / Re: Interesting test prep (or lack thereof) results« on: February 03, 2005, 07:44:35 PM »
Well, I took another one today and got a 171.
The whole time when I was studying before the October exam, I felt like I understood the concepts really well but it just wasn't translating to the test. I don't know why exactly it would play out differently now. I just told myself I wouldn't worry about it anymore and I think I have a totally different attitude towards the whole exam. 49
Studying for the LSAT / Re: Another LR question« on: February 03, 2005, 12:23:45 PM »
The problem only gives you two options to work from: either it is popular with the faculty OR it is popular with the students--it will not be both. That is the last line of the stimulus.
E tells you it is popular with the faculty. It is therefore UNpopular with the students ----> therefore, adopt a new policy. 50

I was really overtired on the actual exam. I was running late the morning of, didn't stop to get coffee (which is a really big mistake for a caffeine-addict like me), and just generally felt exhausted. Reading comp was the first section on my exam--I couldn't focus, missed about 10 questions in a section I usually aced. I woke up after that and did ok throughout the rest, but the damage was already done.
