[blindLaw] taking the LSAT

Tue Jun 16 18:54:23 UTC 2020

Hi Jorge,

I’d be happy to talk with you offline. My cell is 2025970391. Feel free to text me and we can set up a time to chat. My advice is too long to write in an email and depends on a number of factors about you and yours goals. 

Best regards
Derek

My strongest recommendation is to learn to accommodate the logic games section by any means necessary, then fight for those accommodations with the LSAC. Some people have used Microsoft Excel, some people have used physical manipulables like magnets, and still others have found ways to use braille. I very foolishly thought I'd get by by putting down "electronic documents" on my accommodations sheet," only to find out during the test that I'd only be permitted to use Microsoft Word. I didn't know how to use tables in Word back then, so I had no way of spatially representing the variables. My score suffered considerably.
