Attending University of Iowa

…plan at best. Be careful (and strategic) if you decide to retake and reapply. I was pretty accurate with my predictions, the only real surprises were the Pepperdine A, Baylor WL, and W&M R.

LSAT 168 GPA 3.61 2022–23 cycle

Admitted to Boston College

Also, please don’t make the mistake of not writing the optional/supplemental essays. Schools see that and auto waitlist/reject. You need to show sincere interest.
