Tell us what's important to you

word of advice that you probably won't listen to: the sooner you stop letting your parents control your life, the easier
these dudes didn't even know what schools I had applied to
It's not worth dealing with the backlash of such a decision, it's not like FSU is bad or anything, it's just not the dream
especially with a full-ride
exactly. your dream for yourself doesn't have to align with your parents dream for your life. be bold and go with what you truly want
this is the rest of your life you're talking about, but it's your life and not mine
I would take the risk if it was just me but the family backlash is just too much
I take it as my fault, should've scored higher the first time I took the LSAT
or pushed my graduation
a full ride to FSU is amazing and I should probably just take it
You can make something great out of it! Sometimes life locks you in for a minute...I have a 3.18 LSAC GPA lol. NYU was my dream school, but life just kinda shut that door for me. Sometimes you gotta take what you can now, then pivot when you can later. There can be multiple paths to NYC for you, especially if you don't have debt from the fullride at FSU!
if you got a 168 on your first lsat, you could realistically get into the low 170s with an extra year and multiple attempts. nothing wrong with fsu but it seems like you're young and some work experience first could be super helpful not just for your application but for getting perspective as well!
My parents are weirdly completely opposed to me getting work experience, they believe the moment that paycheck touches my bank account I will give up my studies lol
It's kinda stupid but what can you do
i'd do my own thing but that's just me
Are you first gen?
First gen law but my dad has a masters, not in the US though
Idk where I was going with that question, but parents are weird lol. I'm sure they want what's best for you, but it's ultimately your life and you have to deal with the consequences of your own choices
I'm sure they'd get over it if you decided to take another year, too
At the same time, better bird in hand that 100 birds flying
Roughly translated lol
And maybe I can transfer and being debt free is a blessing, especially now that America is being made great again by causing the second great depression
I'm really tired of winning Mr. President
I'm gonna try to transfer lol, even though I have a near fullride right now
Or maybe you'll fall in love with Miami!
FSU is Tallahassee, I meant working in Miami eventually since it's the big city of Florida
It's not too bad of an idea, and doesn't seem like a bad lifepath
Ahhh yeah okay I'd personally hate Tallahassee BUT I stand by what I've said lol

@hcarralero2005: I thought law school transfers aren't eligible for scholarships at their new schools?
