apply, apply, apply! apply to as many as possible and crank up those statements :)))))

Stats aren’t everything. (◕︵◕)
Apply early… Not in February
Don’t believe all the naysayers and worriers. If you give it your all, you’ll succeed no matter what your GPA is or LSAT.
Use 7sage, don’t do more than 1-2 tests a week, take a 4-5 day break every couple practice tests (so you actually learn).
Apply early (Sept/Oct) but don’t be upset if it takes a while to hear back. Don’t be afraid to apply to a lot of places.
Write at least 1 optional essay if there is one Standardize the formatting of all your documents (minus the resume)
Shoot your shot! And don’t panic, you will get into law school and do amazing things :) Feel free to DM any questions!
Ask for fee waivers everywhere. If you’re military/vet, apply for residency/in-state consideration at public schools.
Wrote diversity statement for all schools, why X school essay for most schools, other optional essays for most schools
Wrote optional essays for Duke, UMich, Notre Dame, UC Berkeley, and Cornell, including Why X and diversity statement.
Might as well try! Fill out scholarship essays as early as you can
Deferred from WashU to get some additional work experience and hopefully raise my scholarship through an LSAT retake.
