…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.

T3.5 (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.

Take the LSAT 2-3 times until you score at or above your LSAT PT average. Give yourself 5+ months to study for the LSAT as well! Apply in September if you can, and definitely before Thanksgiving.
I started this process in February of 2020. I studied for the LSAT for about 6 months (about 2 months of serious study and 4 months of occasionally taking a PT) and went from a 156 to a 167 using only 7sage PTs and free stuff from Khan Academy. It has been a long time coming, but I am glad I did things the way I…

…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 ;)
Work hard at studying for the LSAT. Don’t pay for law school!
When taking the LSAT, just relax. I was scoring an average of 170 on my practice exams and ended up getting a 162 on the actual test, but don’t beat yourself up or feel discourage; either take it again or, if you’re anything like me and burned out, just apply and see what happens. But if you’re gonna go with the…
