[quote=Anonymous]I am a test whiz -- I spent my university and grad school tutoring people for every standardized test (LSAT, GMAT, GRE, MCAT) and have gotten perfect scores on every standardized test I've ever taken (granted, a perfect score on a standardized test sometimes still means you can miss a question or two).

Yes, you could be lucky and be naturally good at the LSAT. However, your low SAT math score makes me worried that you'd not be naturally good at the logic puzzles section.

You really, REALLY need to take a practice test and strictly time yourself. That is the only way to know how you might perform.

The big issue with going into the test with a laissez-faire attitude is that schools generally will look at all your LSAT scores, not just your highest (like with the SAT or GRE) and so one low score will tank your future in a good law school forever.

I never saw anyone get more than 15 or so points higher than their original score with tutoring (and that was just when they were naturally smart but had bad test taking strategies) so if you don't get at least a 150 on your practice test (or maybe even a 160) you shouldn't even bother, IMO.[/quote]
