3.79 GPA, 163 Diagnostic Time/174 Diagnostic blind reviewed
Posted: Sat Jan 27, 2018 1:14 pm
In full disclosure, I took PowerScore's course 3 years ago, though I didn't pay attention or complete assignments as I wasn't yet sold on law school. Two weeks ago I took PT 62 as a diagnostic (I had already taken June 2007), and scored a 163 (-5 rc, -4 lr, -8 lg, -9 lr).
Today, after going through 7Sage for one week (only up through their basic logic core curriculum, so no games or rc or advanced lr), I decided to blind review my PT 62. Admittedly, I only went back and wrote down all questions I got wrong (not the answer I selected originally). Then I took that piece of paper with the section and numbers I had gotten wrong and redid the problems. I ended up with a 174 (-2 rc, -3 lr, -0 lg, -3 lr).
My undergraduate gpa is a 3.79, inclusive of 4 or 5 graduate-level courses. I will have worked over 3 full years ft by the time I'd start law school.
If I continue to study hard (about 20 hours per week, ~20-25 full timed PTs), does it seem feasible that I could take the June LSAT and score a 169+? After this blind review, part of me wants to aim for scoring a 172+ on the LSAT, since I am able to understand concepts. It seems like I just need to work on solidifying concepts strongly so that I can work at a more diligent pace while doing PTs. Is that crazy out of reach?
Given all of that, hoping I could get into NYU or higher for law school (2018-2019 admissions cycle).
Thoughts?
