is boar advertising tutoring with a 172 lol
you’d think for all that bragging about your work ethic you’d have something better to do with your time than attacking people’s lsat scores @potato lol
tbh that is pretty good advice, you never know who else is out there in the applicant pool
HimmyNeutron
19:51
that should be a ban lmfao
Nah potato has an alt, bro spoke in the third person, so pathetic lmaoo.
19:52
@onetimesignin it really doesnt matter, people score 170s off the rip with no studying. They are just built different, you gotta accept that there's level to this. Thats why I'm not applying anywhere near the T8 i know not cut out for that. With a 154 UT is gonna shred you.
HimmyNeutron
19:55
I don't like that mentality. u can always do better but yeah with a 154 and no proven academic merit he will have a tough time
AmbivalentPotato
19:56
Thank you wavy. Maybe he will listen from someone else. But yeah totally agree w your point
AmbivalentPotato

Himmy didn't you say applying after October 20th makes no sense and those people should sit out the cycle like yesterday?
19:58
Himmy I'm not saying you cant out work someone smarter than you but theres only so much you can do
HimmyNeutron
19:59
@WhisperingWillingBoar: no
i mean you can always retake for a higher score then apply the following cycle
i dont trying for a higher score automatically means that it being late after oct 20th is contradictory
Hey Potato I figured you knew this (since you have 180/4.0) but when you refer to yourself you can use the words “I” or “me”, unless you meant to send that other message from your alt
AmbivalentPotato
20:01
Potato thinks youre dumb
Potato has an alt and he's using it to hype himself up LITERALLY SO EMBARESSING
CleverSilkyGibbon
20:02
dawg im just tryna fill some info in and this potato guy has me dying laughing
lil bro is red in the face right now stammering at the keyboard in tears
HimmyNeutron
20:02
u guys are so stupid
20:06

20:38
@onetimesignin: wait this is so funny
20:38
potato i sincerely hope you find a life someday and get off this website
i cannot get in the mind of people who decide to troll a random law school data aggregator chat room
but im sure its a turbulent place
or actually maybe its totally becalmed lol
someone fill me in whats potatoes alt
He talked in the third person clearly talking as though he was a different person backing himself up
in an argument, sad human being lmao
