LSAT 162 GPA 3.92 2022–23 cycle

Writing this from end of 1L year; law school is kind of cringe but I don’t mind it too much. Ignore the drama/noise and spend a lot of time doing practice tests. The U is a chill school overall and I don’t regret going to it at the moment Godspeed, may Carti drop by the time I graduate in sha allah 🤲🏼

Apply early, but if you aren’t just know that applying late doesn’t close all the doors in your legal journey. I applied late and got into one of my top two schools.

My cycle had a lot of twists and turns, it was really only at the last moment that my decision was made. Sometimes it might not be clear where you are going to end up, so if you have some setbacks don’t think it’s the end of the road yet! You might just need to wait until you get the answer you want.

I had a really weird college experience and more or less got screwed over by administration at a top 25 liberal arts college. Once I was assigned a new advisor who actually worked with me, my grades completely turned around. I should have been more proactive early on though, oh well.

There are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and say, “Morning boys. How’s the water?” And the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes, “What the hell is water?”

Getting 4 points higher on the lsat than someone whos gpa is .5-.6 points higher becuase they majored in Communications and watching them get higher scholarships than me is infuriating. If youre in college, major in art, NUMBER BIGGER is all that matters, no degree of difficulty is weighed.

Don’t write yourself off for T14 consideration on the basis of a below-25th UGPA. LSAT, WE, graduate-level GPA, LORs, and thoughtfully crafted application materials can take you further than you might think!

It’s super easy to obsess over status checkers, Reddit, and LSD (I’m guilty of it) but try to enjoy your life as well. You’re going to get into the right place for you! Congrats on even applying- that’s more than a lot of people ever do. Good luck and if you haven’t heard it today, I’m proud of you.

Do not do well with standardized tests. Took LSAT three times and got 159, 153, and 162 on the final try. Not the best score but I gave it my all and got a tutor for the final month before my final try. Planning on JAG in the Marine Corps so not stressing too much about the ranking of the school.

I am a biochemist with a PhD and extensive laboratory experience. I don’t know what killed my applications but I wrote a lot about science and did not write a diversity statement unless required.
