…while working full time (40+ hour weeks), id spend a year studying for lsat, and then the next year, visit schools and write essays and apply that cycle very much sure of which schools I wanted and why. I think if I’d not let myself be pressured by others or my own expectations as far as timeline, if I could do it…
…decision acceptance! I was a little worried when my Nov LSAT came in around their 25th percentile, but it goes to show that if you have a holistic application that tells a narrative, an excellent personal statement, and a decent Kira interview (I talked until I got cut off in one of the Q’s lol), anything is…
If you are planning to take a gap year to work fulltime, try to study for the LSAT before you start working because you will not be able to optimally prioritize and dedicate time to the LSAT while working. LSAT resources used: 7sage, PowerScore Bible Trilogy, The Loophole Rather than just prioritizing rankings, take…
…A BREAK.*Be honest with yourself - can you actually handle studying for the LSAT while managing school, on top of whatever else you’ve got going on (a job, RSOs, etc.)?- Saying this because I studied during the Fall of 2023 while I had my job with FSU’s undergrad admissions, a 15-hour class load, and was involved…
LSAT 151 GPA 3.17 2024–25 cycle
Last minute decision to finally pursue my dream career. Had been over a year since I had last studied for the LSAT, then registered with only a month to prepare: I had been consistently scoring in the 154-158 range - my LSAT score is an aberration. 09/19/2023 - I am retaking the October 2023 LSAT. I scored a 151 on…
…full-time at a personal injury law firm. I took the LSAT in August 2024 and scored 150. Due to personal health reasons, I did not retake it. My applications have consisted of the following: LSAT Addendum - Resume Personal Statement Optional Statements Pre- Recorded Interview Recommendation Letters I dream of…
…and it was the absolute rock bottom moment of my life. The LSAT and law school gave me a goal and a vision to strive for. A way to better my life and achieve what I thought I was capable of. I had been humbled beyond belief, but I was not out of it yet. I ended my relationship and entered into a training montage of…
…probably lying through their teeth anyways. (2) Start studying for the LSAT early. If you’ve been out of school a while, you might need months or even years to get back into the swing of studying every day and taking exams. APPLICATION PHASE (3) Apply broadly, but figure out WHERE you would SERIOUSLY go. Don’t just…
I hope my applications show you guys that even with a low gpa you should still chase your dreams. Working full time made studying for the LSAT hard. I spent about 3 months using 7 sage doing the core curriculum. I never finished it and only took a diagnostic and 2 practice LSAT’s. My biggest factors that helped me…
…as an individual and for law school applications. Take the LSAT seriously, and study for it. Don’t just wing it. Find books and programs that work for you. don’t feel like you have to spend a fortune, just study hard. Give it the proper time. There’s always going to be someone better than you, don’t get discouraged…
…episode of Revisionist History about law school and the LSAT titled “The Tortoise and the Hare” to give you perspective. The practice timed runs for exams are helpful for timing pressure, but they are NOWHERE near the nerves you will actually experience during the LSAT you pay for and have proctored the day of the…
I began studying for the LSAT in April 2021. I took it three times, and I improved my score by 10 pts in August 2022. Immediately after seeing my best score, I applied as soon as the cycle started to my top schools. I am looking to study part-time in the NYC area for as little money as possible. I threw in a few…
…ridiculous sometimes. Just do the best you can, take the LSAT as many times as it takes to get a 170+, and lean into your softs. I don’t have any family members or friends in law, and had no idea what I was doing when I applied. I was just very candid and transparent in my application, and studied for the LSAT for…
Order of priority (if you decided you wanted to go to law school after graduating from undergrad like me): GRIND the LSAT. Try and get a 170+ score (honestly, a 173 now). Drill, drill, drill. Start a YEAR in advance (and apply for accommodations well in advance, though it usually comes through pretty quickly). A…
Softs will help, but even if you’ve got exceptionally high ones, many schools, given how the game is played, will still care most about your LSAT and GPA. That is just how it is. So, live in the real world and understand that, for the most part, it all just comes down to numbers. Apply as early as you can; that…
