Blog reader Ryan recently emailed me:I think that using the LSAT Proctor DVD can be a great asset during studying, but I also can't justify spending $25 dollars on it. This led me to create a similar mp3 with the Proctor prompts and noise distractions built into it. I have thrown the mp3 up on my blog for free download /or play.The mp3 version for free download is "good if you are going to play it on an mp3 player, iPhone/iTouch or want to always have access to it."
The version for streaming play is "good if you are at a computer that you can't download to or are away from your main computer."
Of course, this is sound-only, so it lacks the visual component that the SimuGator LSAT Proctor DVD has.
However, it's still a good alternative to the DVD if you:
-don't have $25 to spend for the DVD
-want to try out something with distractions before getting the DVD
-want to take PrepTests while traveling but won't have a DVD player/laptop with you
The mp3 is only 35 minutes long (the length of one LSAT section). However, if you download the mp3, you can "loop" it to repeat. This will allow you to take LSAT sections back-to-back with distractions. Alternatively, if you're only streaming the mp3 from your computer, you can take a second or two to click and replay the mp3 to do multiple sections.
The mp3 doesn't have various levels of distraction like the DVD does. However, you can adjust the volume level of the mp3 depending upon how much you want to be annoyed while you're taking a practice test.
Big ups to Ryan for creating this mp3!

While this post is only loosely related to the above post, I'm looking for some insight from anyone. I graduated from university with a 3.95 GPA on a 4.0 scale (I'm in Canada). I understand that this is roughly a 3.99 on a 4.3 scale. I went through a Princeton Review prep guide and after that I am still unable to break a 150 on my practise tests. I am currently on month 1of Steves 4 month study plan and I'm hoping this pulls my mark up. Just wondering if anyone could give me a general idea of what I should be aiming for (realistically) in terms of an LSAT mark to get into lawschool (specifically looking at Dalhousie, UNB, Ottawa, Western, and Queens). Thanks!
