Apply early, apply often. I applied late in the cycle and it def screwed me a bit. I might have to apply again next cycle with a new LSAT score.
Take time doing your applications. Make sure you’re eating and taking breaks and not just plowing through. It’s easy to make stupid mistakes.
Applied thinking I had good chances, now realizing how dire the situation really is. I hope to be admitted somewhere. i really really do.
if you haven’t heard back in 3+ months, it’s probably an R/WL - as evidenced below. exception is san diego… idk what they’re doing.
Be yourself! The schools that truly value who you are despite your stats will want you and be the best fit for you. Also, apply early.
Work Hard and be patient. If you really want to become a lawyer you will get there on your own journey. Be confident and humble!

Crazy cycle and overall super happy with my results. I’ll prob come back here to talk about advice but for now… GO BRUINS!
Apply early, do the supplemental essays and don’t let Reddit get into your head!
USD A was with previous LSAT score of 159 Nebraska called me before emailing. My advice is to apply as early as possible.
No wisdom right now since the cycle is not over yet. As a super late applicant (end of Feb), I would say apply early…
Might as well try! Fill out scholarship essays as early as you can
-Find a hobby to help make the process less stressful/take your mind off of your status checkers and email :)
Don’t get too caught up in statistics! Remember that you have a story to tell and it deserves to be heard.
