LSAT 160 GPA 3.88 2023–24 cycle

Attending Southern Methodist University

…the Baylor WL I thought I was doomed. I got the invite to interview at Baylor and I’m so GLAD I did. I’m a fairly good interviewer and charismatic person and I think this sold my A. I received the A for Baylor some weeks later and got a HUGE scholarship for my stats. I KNOW it is because of my mock trial experience,…

Phone Interviews are a great chance to make a good impression and speak to admission about your legitimate concerns and serious interest in the university’s program. Be polite and professional. Send a “thank you” email following the interview. 100% always get the LSAT score preview. It is worth the extra cost.

LSAT 162 GPA 4.19 2025–26 cycle

Attending Texas A&M University

…Acceptance. June 30, 2026 I was surprised to get an interview. A day later I got my acceptance email. Scholarship came afterwards. I attempted to negotiate to hopefully match the offer with Texas A&M, however I only got a few thousand dollars more. I am happy that I got another acceptance at a school like Wisconsin,…

LSAT 158 GPA 3.70 2023–24 cycle

Admitted to University of Oklahoma

THE MOST HELPFUL THING IMO was moot court- every interview asked about it and if i would do it in law school, i think it is a huge green flag PS about why law blah blah, but tied in to getting suspended in high school and feeling like I had no one advocating for me (idk if this helped or hurt me but a clinic…

Attending Emory University

…and wide, doing all optional essays and pre-recorded video interviews. I reused some of my essays but also wrote probably 10 unique essays in total. Every school I applied to was intentional– I didn’t throw out a reach school “just to see” (I didn’t have the money to do that). The “safeties” I applied to were all…

LSAT 164 GPA 3.65 2023–24 cycle

Attending Georgia State University

I signed up for an optional interview with Baylor at one of the LSAC Forums. I submitted a GPA Addendum /only/ to TAMU because otherwise my GPA is relatively average/above-average and TAMU is clearly a GPA focused school. Attending the Forum in my area was a great idea bc I received several fee waivers for schools I…
