…on what law school is like NOW, their app process, their studying process, etc).

LSAT 159 GPA 3.55 2024–25 cycle

Attending Gonzaga University

Work as hard as you can in college, study hard for the LSAT, try to apply early if possible – and above all else, PLEASE take care of your mental health.

You can get a lot out of free content if you don’t…

LSAT 172 GPA 3.03 2021–22 cycle

Attending Washington University in St. Louis

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…
