LSAT Ninja

I have developed a bad habit. You see, about a year ago, I began making predictions about upcoming LSAT administrations. It turns out that LSAT students are highly interested in the topic. And it has gone rather well so far. I predicted that the curve for the September test last year was going to be [...]

I recently returned from a trip to Vegas. Well, actually, I returned about two weeks ago, but my wallet and my soul have just recently recovered. Seeing as I am unable to ever completely shake the LSAT out of my brain (even after twelve beers at the pool and too many tequila shots to recall), [...]

The LSAT talks about a lot of different subject areas. Fractal geometry, the mating habits of sage grouse, diapir eruptions, “group think” behavior, and even unicorns have all been the topic of discussion at different times. But they don’t talk about sports. Well, not much, at least. And I think I might know why. There [...]

It has been a very eventful year. The United States swore in our first black President. The King of Pop kicked the can. We finally achieved health care reform… sorta. We started to bounce back from the recession… kinda. A Tiger became a cheetah. And the Yankees won another World Series. Well, all of that [...]

It’s law school application season. Applicants are choosing their favorite schools and attempting to put their best foot forward. Schools are trying to entice the best candidates and wooing them with cash and prizes. The whole process is reminiscent of a courtship ritual, higher-education style. Since I took the LSAT this past September and scored [...]

I am bad at Halloween. You see, I always have a number of decent costume ideas, but I’m sorely lacking in the execution arena. Generally, I end up searching through the back of my closet for random remnants left over from my college years. A pink boa? Sure. Skin-tight, blue snakeskin shirt? Why not. And [...]

LSAT scores were released on Friday. I have received a variety of student responses, everything from “I’m drunk and celebrating” to “I’m drunk and stepping closer to the ledge.” I got a 178. Luckily, that means I get to avoid moving to Russia and getting a really unfortunate tattoo. Insert sigh of relief. The curve [...]

Three weeks is a long time. Empires have been built and destroyed in less than three weeks. You could travel around the entire world (probably a couple of times) in less than three weeks. Our national debt will grow by about $20 billion over the next three weeks. And yet, it takes three mind-numbing weeks [...]

The Patron has now officially exited my system, so I figure it is time to assess my LSAT experience Saturday. Disclaimer: LSAC regulations (which, along with the obligation of paying our licensing fees, we take very seriously) prohibit me from discussing the actual content of the test. Thus I cannot talk about answers or deductions [...]

I am taking the LSAT on Saturday, as are many of you. The experience of taking the LSAT is generally associated with a great deal of trepidation for students, but I assure you there is nothing to fear. I have taken the real deal three times in the past. So this will be round four. [...]
