About & Wisdom

Background

Major
Double major - Business and History · Worked through college, weathered several family emergencies which impacted my GPA
Work Experience
1-2 years. I had almost 1.5 years of WE at the time I applied

Application Profile

Softs
Published work in a peer-reviewed undergraduate journal with a 10% acceptance rate, president and vice president of two clubs, worked through college
LSAT Prep
Did first PT in March 2025. Self-studied mostly using Lawhub! I took the June LSAT and realized I barely knew logical reasoning concepts so signed up for 7sage to drill after that. Had 2 tutoring sessions (1 hr each) before the October LSAT

AuroraEagle's wisdom

  • Unless it’s a Top 14 law school (and even then, reconsider), don’t pay full tuition/sticker price for law school under any circumstance

  • Avoid private loans

  • If you have a low GPA, full-time work experience can help offset that

  • (This is for nKJDs) do not quit your full-time job to study for the LSAT. You can absolutely study for the LSAT while working! I studied and applied while working full-time

  • You should build your law school list based off where you think want to practice and live after law school. (For example, applying to University of Minnesota Law School is probably not worth it if your goal is to practice in New England)
