Don’t pay for grad school!
Applicant wisdom
Advice applicants left on their LSD.Law profiles, searchable by topic, school, and stats.
Invest in those who invest in you.
Never let your UG GPA hold you back. Apply broad, aim for the 75th LSAT median and you’ll be successful. Good luck to all super splitters!
Check 509 reports!!! https://www.abarequireddisclosures.org/Disclosure509.aspx Higher rank does not always mean better job outcomes

Always make sure to try your best whenever possible, but if you don’t, make up for it via standardized testing.
The individual who favors the journey will always go further than the individual who favors the destination!
Don’t get too caught up in statistics! Remember that you have a story to tell and it deserves to be heard.

Yale is a T100 Submitted my apps and received some decisions (UVA, Cornell, UF, WashU) with a 3.8 flat
Reapplying to schools that you were waitlisted at is not a bad thing, It actually looks good to reapply
Try everything with your best. Your failure will leave no regret and your success will make you proud.
I know you probably won’t listen to me, but all you can do is get good grades and do well on the LSAT!
