[] c0bra1

13:00

or can you reuse one of them

180letmein

13:00

I think they say you can reuse recommendations

180letmein

13:00

Just make sure to let your recommenders know

[] c0bra1

13:00

As an R&Rer i can tell you your recommendations stay in LSAC for like five years or something and you don’t have to re-request them

babycakes

13:04

And you don’t have to get new ones

I am an R&R advocate if you know you can do better on the LSAT or write better essays or you just want more time to figure out what you’re doing with your life. Was a really good choice for me

You can re-use recommendations, but if you're reapplying and expecting different results, you should get at least one new/updated recommendation.

im maxed on lsat so id only reapply for a lucrative and decently protected job offer, at which point yeah id get a new recommendation from whoever i work for

[] c0bra1

13:16

i wish you didnt have to waive viewing rights to recommendations tbh i wanna know what they're sayin about me

[] c0bra1

13:17

i also heard that if you reapply somewhere you got accepted from originally they dont like it? or something? is that actually true or just speculation

I've heard that too---which is tough, because what if the only problem was funding? (Or in that case can you defer and try to renegotiate scholarship or something?)

[] c0bra1

13:24

yeahh and i don't know how picky schools are about the deferment reason - idk if "i want to work so i can make money and come back later" is an approved reason lol

[] c0bra1

13:24

and even then its 1 year at max

[] c0bra1

13:24

well at least i have a month and a half to think about it
