LSAT 172 GPA 3.81 2023–24 cycle

Attending University of Michigan

…I’m incredibly pleased with my cycle. When I first started studying for the LSAT, I was convinced few schools, particularly those near the top of the rankings, would be interested in a 40-year old with several significant health challenges, so I applied broadly.
