- The PT number, section, and question.
- A screenshot of the question.
- A brief explanation of how you approached the question, and what you found challenging.
- Complete the Weekly Slack Challenge in the week it is posted. These short quizzes usually take around 10 minutes, and we promise they are actually super fun!
- Be respectful!
- Everyone is here to learn in a positive, growth-oriented environment. Please be respectful of others’ vulnerability in posting their missed questions or LSAT struggles by:
- Leaving only helpful, encouraging, constructive feedback, and
- joining in by posting your own questions and struggles so no one in this community feels alone!
- Everyone is here to learn in a positive, growth-oriented environment. Please be respectful of others’ vulnerability in posting their missed questions or LSAT struggles by:
- Get involved to win the Slack Hero of the Month award. Each month, the student who posts the most wrong answers in Slack will receive a free session with Molly!
- Slack Hero fine print:
- To win, students must post the most wrong answers in Slack that month.
- Wrong answers must be accompanied by a specific question about the student’s process (i.e. my CLIR was xyz but that didn’t yield any insights in the answers, can anyone help me with a more internal CLIR?)
- The best time to ask for help in Slack is before you have camo-ed the section. We want to see the real, raw, unedited process you use on the question that led you to trouble/confusion/discomfort/etc. Getting feedback on this very process will lead to much more targeted and much more transferrable feedback that you can apply to future question.
- Students must complete every Slack Challenge that month in the week it is posted.
- Students may not win the Slack Hero award in consecutive months.
- Slack Hero fine print:
- Should you need to ask a personal and/or administrative question, please direct your inquiry to either Molly or Ellen, but not both.
- Please post one question at a time, and do not post another question until you have received a response.
