manifesting '21–'22 app cycle Class of 2025 class year

hi! I took the LSAT five times, crazy! I went 163 - 166 - 167 - 169 - 165. I think for schools, like UMich, taking the test that many times hurt me. But I also got into UVA and feel like I outperformed with that scholarship offer.
I also really think that my personal statement, diversity statement, and Why UVA statements made a huge difference for me. All of my statements read like a personal narrative and I’m more than a decent writer. Really work on those statements! Also, if you want to take that test a fifth time because you think you have more left in you, just take it. I know that my score went down, but I really thought I had it that last time and I know it would have bothered me to have not taken it that last time.
