Q: LSAT写作将有变化 
A: Beginning with the June 2005 test, the time allotted2 for the unscored LSAT writing sample will increase from 30 to 35 minutes, the writing space will increase from one to two pages, the directions have been revised, and each test taker will be randomly3 assigned one of two different kinds of writing prompt. One kind is new to the LSAT. The other is very similar to the kind of writing prompt that has previously4 been administered with the LSAT and that has appeared in official LSAT preparation materials produced prior to June 2005. The writing sample will remain unscored.

Q: LSAT难度有增加吗? 
LSAT黄皮书的早期的真题,不知道现在的题目跟那时候的难度是不一样的? 
A: 据一些考试人的讨论总结,LSAT的阅读和LOGICAL REASONING的难度在增加,尤其是LOGICAL REASONING比较明显,这个可能可以通过对比近两年的题目和黄皮书的早期题目可以看出,但GAME的难度呈现下降趋势,尤其是近年的题目尤其明显。 

Q: 请问去美国读JD需要什么样的工作背景? 
我以前的教育背景是国内的会计Master,目前在国内从事证券行业,涉及到会计、法律各方面的问题,不过没有国内的律师证。想要去美国读JD是否需要以前有很强的法律背景呢? 
A: If you graduated from a university degree, no matter what kind of major, got a not bad LSAT score and have enough money, you are qualified6 to pursue JD in US. 
Q: 但是如果我的目标是前二十名甚至是前十名呢?当然,如果LSAT足够高的情况下。 
因为,如果申请MBA的话,即使GMAT足够高,但是如果background不行的话,前十名也是很难的,JD有同样的情况吗? 
A: I do not think so. if you get LSAT and GPA high enough. Your background doesnt matter. In fact, Law school pay more attention to LSAT and GPA. JD bases on only university education, not your experience. 
A: Your numbers (LSAT&GPA) are No. 1 important. 
You do have nice background. it would be a plus in your application. Some law schools such as Northwestern like applicants7 with some experience. But I dont think background in law is preferred than that in other areas. Diversity is what they really want. 
Most schools would take your work experience into consideration, but it is not a major factor. A lot Americans go to law school directly out of college. 
A: 考LSAT 和以前学的专业几乎没有任何关系,关键是英语,不过PHILOSOPHY或者POLITICAL SCIENCE,ENGLISH专业的人还是占点便宜的 
工作经验对于JD 的申请不是那么重要,有的美国人认为工作经验是弥补本科GPA不足的一种途径, 这一点和MBA完全不一样。 不过工作经历倒是可以帮助你写PS,有时说想上好学校,LSAT分数是命根。 
  
Q: Experiment Section in LSAT 
Is it true that the experiment section in LSAT could either be Logic5 Game or Reading? 
A: could be Logic Game, Reading or Logic Reasoning. Suggest do not guess. 
A: the experimental usually appears among the first three sections

Q: LSAT 作文能用铅笔写么? 
As Cracking the LSAT says, "a pen will be provided at the test center, which must be used (for writing sample only) to ensure a photocopy8 of high quality". Is that true? 
A: for the whole test, use pencil and pencil only for the answer sheet and writing. 

Q: 关于六月考试,咨询大家的意见。 
刚开始复习两周,主要是计划考10月的,但是也想去考6月的感受一下,多半会CANCEL成绩,不知道大家认为这样的临场实习,有没有帮助,还是会有反效果,因为准备的不充分,给以后的考试留下阴影。 
我现在的情况是可以全心复习,每天争取学校6小时以上。具体做题还没限时,一个LR错7个左右,阅读10个左右,GAME做很少,错5个吧,不限时。 
因为附近的考场马上就报满了,所以想问问大家的意见,尽快决定要不要报。谢谢。 
A: 考一次确实有点帮助吧! 
我去年12月考的,今年十二月再考一次,有了实战经验好多了,至少不是无头苍蝇! 
A: It is fine to take the first test as a practice. 
Mind one thing though. you can take three tests at most within two years. 

Q: 共享官方一些样题。 
A: Complete Sample LSAT 
LSAT Preparation- Sample Questions With Explanations 
  
Q: 请大家一起探讨一下那些US大学接受亚洲或是中国学生多一些? 
有些咨询的老师说区别不大,不过据我听说除州立大学不谈,各校对中国学生接受的比例是有差别的。 
A: I dont know if there is quota9 system for international students. but it is true that some schools are more friendly to Chinese students than others. schools like Columbia, Michigan, Upenn, William & Mary and WUSL seem to have a lot of Chinese LL.Ms. JDs in any one of all the law schools are rare, so it may become hard to know if they love or hate us 
A: Schools are looking for diversity. Sometimes even a relatively10 low scores on LSAT, GPA, might be admitted by his/her diversity. 
A: Stanford has an unofficial quota: only 10-20% of students accepted are Asians. 
Note that most of those are ABCs and AB whatever other Asians... 
A: Diversity is only for blacks, Hispanics and native Americans. 
Asians have NO ADVANTAGE, possibly a disadvantage competing against white students. 
-Irena is right. Asians are minority but not URM (under-representative minorities) 
-Too bad that none of us is a black man (or black woman, Hispanic man, Hispanic woman, etc.) 
If it is at all possible, it maybe beneficial NOT to let the schools know we are Chinese. 
Since it is not possible...we have to bite the bullet
