Application Profile

C&F: Convicted Felon (I maintain my innocence)

cobratate's wisdom

My law school app is pretty unique which both helped and hurt me (t1 soft which helped, and convicted felon which hurt. Also I’ve always publicly maintained my innocence which in a lot of cases can hurt).

LSAT 171 Diagnostic->178 after a month or so of studying. Was pting 180 pretty regularly but during the actual test, the proctor interrupted for about 1.5-2 minutes during RC because my camera slipped and covered my forehead. Decided to not retake, as 178 is above every school’s 75th percentile.
