…numbers truly are the most important thing, and without my LSAT score, I would have never stood a chance with my GPA. For the LSAT, I wish I could properly give helpful advice, but honestly I was very fortunate: due to Covid, I lost my job, but was lucky enough to have a home with my parents where, besides buying my…
take the lsat in college. people will tell you that you’ll have more time once you’re done with school — you won’t. you’ll have more responsibilities, and you’re unlikely to have the study habits or structure in place to hit the score you want. try to keep extracurriculars on your plate. apply for programs, work on…
This is going to be long, but I have lots of wisdom to share that I wish I knew before! LSAT Prioritize the LSAT! It’s a difficult exam, but also very learnable. Every minute and penny you invest will save you thousands in tuition, so I was happy with my decision to pay for a few hours of tutoring. Even if this…
…with the guaranteed scholarship. When my August LSAT score came back, I wrestled with whether to re-take, knowing I was capable of a higher score. However, my gains would be only marginal since I needed to apply by November for early decision, and studying to re-take would eat time away that could be devoted to…
…with scholarship! Specific advice below: Max out on your LSAT score as much as you can. Due to time, I went ahead and applied as I wanted to get into school, but I was PTing higher than 166 regularly. In another world, I would keep studying and retake to reflect my PT potential. I went from a diagnostic of 154 to…
…will help you navigate this process with less stress: The LSAT does not define who you are, nor does it define how smart you are. Once you have a score in the upper 150’s, it then becomes a game of how hard you are willing to study to get into the school you want. I wasn’t willing to put in the time to get my score…
…out a way to package it nicely into a two page essay. LSAT: I have to say getting this score was God’s doing. Didn’t do anything to deserve it, but Jesus had grace and listened to my begging<3 Practically though, set expectations low and expect the studying to take time. Some people get their score in six months.…
Starting to study in June for Aug, Oct, or Nov tests in preparation of attending 1L the following year will be really tough. Everyone says start early and give yourself plenty of time and it’s really the truth! 7Sage, BluePrint, and LSAT done right (tutoring) was the best for me. I wish I had started using the LSAT…
LSAT: Took it twice (both Flex): 171 (August) -> 180 (November). Used a combination of PowerScore Bible trilogy and 7Sage for PTing/blind reviewing/videos. I think that overstudying and burnout is definitely a thing – I took 6-7 weeks off and barely studied between my first and second take, and I think that actually…
LSAT 169 GPA 3.40 2026–27 cycle
…very well and should have no issues with applying. For LSAT I am still actively taking the LSAT and hope to score higher in August and September. 166 was my first score and my PTs have improved a lot. Hoping for a 167-169 in August, and to break 170 in September. Update: got 169 in August. Little dissapointed, but…
Because of my GPA, I scared myself into believing I had to achieve a perfect LSAT score and delayed testing for almost 4 years. The forums and the chat can be useful, but they can also be harmful. Know your limit. If you start to doubt your worth, your chances, yourself.. UNPLUG. I did not pay for study programs or…
…certain that law school is the right path for you. I studied full-time for around 7 months and took the test twice before I got a 174 on my third attempt. Apply broadly and look at the lsd.law school data - be realistic about schools, especially in the T14, that have GPA floors. A 174 LSAT is the 75th percentile for…
After three attempts at the LSAT, my lsat score is a 160. I tried my best, all that I can with this test and am just gonna let fate bring me the results. As long as you tried your best its all good. I went from a 129 diag to a 160 which is 31 points higher. First half of my studying (8 months) was done while in…

legalSeparateSatyr left great wisdom for posterity… (◕U◕) Applied to Marquette, Houston, and Miami with a 160, Do LSAT prep early, testing preferably June and latest October, and start your personal statement at least 4 months before applying. No you are not late for starting applications after, it does make it…

WL/R everywhere in the 2020-2021 cycle. 3.94 LSAC and degree GPA. double major in Political Science and Philosophy from a small state school. Dean’s List nearly all semesters and received top honors in Poli Sci. Cycle Recap from last year:…
The first time I applied was in 2019. I had a 145 LSAT score and didn’t get in anywhere with my low GPA. A year later I took a Blueprint prep course and got a 150. I was very discouraged and decided not to reapply so I took a 2 year break which I don’t recommend because I lost all the progress I had gained. In 2023,…
