My two cents: Apply far and wide if you can afford to do so. I had several surprises in my application results and was grateful that I applied to many schools.
WF has a “non-binding” early decision program, and that’s what I was accepted to with a 45k scholarship. deferred myself to regular decision and was waitlisted
Spend more time studying for the LSAT. Consume your life with it. Be a paralegal, legal assistant or get a legal related job to see if you want to be a lawyer.
good luck to my stats twins out there!!

I intend reform as much as I am able and my success is only by Allah. Upon Him I have relied and to Him I return.
162 og lsat then 168 update in Feb. Take the LSAT so so so very seriously, it was my biggest limiting factor.
honestly I was surprised. but I think if I would have applied earlier and not so late, march 1, I would have gotten more A’s. so pls I beg you, apply earlier.
Get applications in earlier if you can (I didn’t, and it was my biggest regret through this process). And take a deep breath. You’ll get where you need to be.
You don’t have to spend a lot of money to get a good LSAT score - just organization and honesty. Rankings are not everything. Enjoy the learning experience.
I don’t feel like you can ever start your personal statement too soon or ever be too delusional during the app process <3 forget the moon, aim for the sun :’)

Everything happens for a reason. Work hard and know you’ve done your best. Above all, have faith and trust the process, and let the chips fall where they may.
I don’t have the greatest LSAT score, it’s a hard test and. My first score was a 140 and I managed to get it up to here so I am proud. You are not your score.
