Give yourself LOTS of time to study for the LSAT. I started studying a full year before I planned on submitting my applications, and it took me approx. 400 hours of studying spread out over 8 months for me to be happy with my score. Especially if your GPA is below the medians of the schools you’re applying to (like…

It’s never too late to follow your dreams. I’m older than most students, this was true in undergrad and will be true in law school. After a long succesful career in the military, I decided to pursue my childhood dream and attend law school. The choice for me was simple, it came down to a matter of if I would regret…

I studied full-time while working…
