The LSAT is one giant math test... you'll do FINE

man... only if it was that simple... my back up plan is to go to EE for graduate school and retake the LSAT in june or september and hope to score higher then transfer out to a law school after one year of EE graduate school. -sigh-... this sucks... I'm really really freaking nervous and anxious that i'm going to black out. the problem i have is that I'm so worried with time...

If you look @ it like a math problem, it gets easier. My cousin told me to pick the "least incorrect answer," and looking @ it that way helps. I took it in Sept this year, and I COMPLETELY FROZE in the games section... i literally guessed at every one, no joke. I'd taken four sections, and it was my last... talk about exhausted and brain dead. I just FROZE. I looked at the clock and freaked out. So, don't look at the clock. Skip what you don't know how to set up and come back to it. I got the LSAT 180 games workbook, and it is KICK @SS! Probly too late for that info, right. If you don't score high enough, why waste a semester in gradschool doing something you would rather not do? I've heard it is more difficult to transfer into lawschool than it is to just get in. I'd work a year or so... get a job as a legal secretary and learn something worth your time!

If you do take it again, definitely study the ways to set up these games... it helps SO much. That's what I didn't know before, and I screwed myself.
Anyway, GL, I'll be there too!

Well, my idea is that After one year of EE grad, I will just not continue... Just tell them I have to stop because I can't pay or something. I really want to take a year off, but it's just that my parents think that what happens if I do crappy the second time around as well? Then I have no job or anything, so they would rather I be studying EE in graduate school then change to something later in my career as that would be my stepping stone. I started to prep in the summer, but I still feel I'm not ready... oh man...

honestly, they say we won't do any better the second time around, but I think it is a load of bull. I am not nervous, I am not scared, and I sure am not sick this time. (Sick last time, yuck). I think after you take it, you can better prepare yourself. This time I found that LSAT180 by kaplan, and it was GREAT. Before I didn't have anything that specifically told me how to take it. Esp the games section.

I assume your parents are paying for the EE grad stuff? To me, that sounds like a pain in the @ss when you could be making money and doing what YOU want to do with your own life... I've watched my BF work his butt off for EE and ECE, and I don't know how he did it. Now he's working in web marketing.
I've been working PT at a law firm now for about 7/8 months, and it is great. I learn a lot, and it keeps me busy. And it looks GOOD on a lawschool application. It isn't all just LSAT and GPA. If the LSAT doesn't turn out well enough, build up that resume to impress them next time around.

And if you don't have to stick around wherever you live, look @ lawschools around the country.. there are LOTS that will take people who don't score real well. It all runs down in the end to who you know, and what connections you've made. Not necessarily where you got the degree.
To top all that off, the probono/nonprofit sector begs for attorneys... they're desperate for help... so, that's another great place to start out when you graduate (even if you didn't go to the best school ever). might not make a lot at first, but you make contacts and gain experience... not to mention great for politics!

I got queasy just reading a LSAT puzzle.

I took the LSAT a looong time ago. You'll do a lot better than you think. Just do a lot of timed practice tests. I took a Princeton Review class but it didn't help my score much but there are better study courses out there now.

With an EE background are you planning to take the Patent bar? It might be boring but the is a lot of money to be made in that field.
