…Mary” school, and I knew that it would be a reach with my LSAT score. Even though I was a little bit disappointed since UT Austin is my state public flagship university, I am grateful that I was not outright rejected, and I fully intend to ride the waitlist. Pennsylvania State University - Result: Acceptance.…

Admitted to Texas A&M UniversityT3.5 (LGBT+). Did my undergrad in engineering at a good state school in a state I didn’t live in. Texas resident (CAP sucks) Studied for the LSAT for 2 months. First diagnostic was a 163, ended at a consistent 175. I used Mike Kim’s LSAT Trainer and about 1.5 dozen PTs to study. Had bad test anxiety and stress…

…those six months were filled with a ridiculous amount of LSAT studying and application writing. At the time I felt honored and I am still honored today to be able to say that I was selected as a part of YLS’s class of 2026, paid for by the Funded Law Education Program. This was and still is truly unbelievable having…
…gotten the best UGPA you can, THEN start focusing on LSAT. I highly recommend LSATDemon for all your studying needs. I truly think they are the clear winners for title of best LSAT study program. I only used them for a couple months and increased my LSAT score by 10 points. I only wish I had used them from the…
DISCLAIMER: I AM GOING TO SOUND VERY NITPICKY ABOUT MY APPLICATION, GPA, AND LSAT IN THE FOLLOWING SECTION. I AM CONTENT WITH MY OUTCOME AT THE END OF THE CYCLE. THIS IS JUST WHAT I WOULD TELL MYSELF ON HOW TO IMPROVE MY OUTCOMES IF I WERE TO GO BACK IN TIME. **Study hard for the LSAT. Like, take the amount of time…
Give yourself ample time for the LSAT.- I studied on and off for about a year, then kicked it into high gear and studied roughly an hour every day for about 10 months. I also took the LSAT 3 times. The exam can change the trajectory of your life, you owe it to yourself to give it your best shot. The LSAT is not an…
…I decided I was going to go to law school in June, studied for the LSAT in July-August, and took the August-September-October LSATs, scoring a 171 on both of my last 2 attempts. If I had waited a full year, maybe I could have gotten that score up higher, but with my life circumstances, waiting wasn’t something under…
Recognize how much of a blessing it is that you can offset your four-year GPA with your two-hour LSAT score. STUDY FOR THE TEST AND TAKE PREP TESTS WEEKLY.
…networking through campus visits and calls w/ current students definitely helped me swing a few A’s (USC, UCLA, UMich). Unless it’s HYS, always write the ‘Why X’. Make sure is personalized. If I was in admissions I would discriminate against KJDs. Joking as lots of you are incredibly intelligent, but go get that…
…Cornell-bound! Good luck to all, spend more time studying for the LSAT than I did.
Hello fellow LSD lurkers! All apps were submitted between December 2nd and 8th. Started studying for the LSAT during the summer of my junior year. Sat the exam twice, highest score was September 2023.
Start studying for the LSAT sophomore year :(
Do your very best in undergrad. Once your GPA is finalized, that’s it. Also, take your time studying for the LSAT. Do not take the test until you are absolutely ready.
…and their merit aid options (I also had a limited time to study for the LSAT—6 weeks using Khan Academy—which was not ideal). However, I’m very proud of my waitlists because applying later allows me to live in the dream that I would have been accepted if I’d applied 4-6 months earlier ;)
For what it’s worth… Applying to law school in the year of Covid has been stressful and unpredictable. Will next year be as competitive? IMO yes. LSAT Flex has increased averages and with so many applicants applying due to Covid/economy there will be deferrals. Apply as early in September as possible. Non 170+…
Live laugh love But for real advice: for the LSAT, when you study, go through missed answers, note what “type” of question it is, and try to understand the “why” - it helps to identify patterns and get better at the test Understand your “why” for law and build your narrative around that for your application,…
…story of self growth to tell of my 5 years post college. Study hard for the LSAT and write your ass off on the essays and you’ll surprise yourself.
