fellow 1L chiming in with some advice to 0l's. Once you're in law school, be sure to constantly talk about your LSAT score and how you're on a scholarship.

@Refresher said: Okay. Thank you. Look for someone at your school that had the same prof and got at least an A-. You need someone that can help you narrow down what topics to focus on.

You should definitely apply this cycle. Your GPA is above the median at a good number of T14s. Your LSAT isn't unheard of for T14 schools. You're at or above the 25th for 5 schools from the T14. If you aren't afraid of debt, you should consider str…

@slandholm said: Probably none of you care, but I'm taking in January instead... Also did a PT on Monday and scored a 156, which is my goal range. Assuming you took a timed test, a 20 point increase in a week of studying is incredible.

Depends on the school. Once they start handing out money, the longer you wait the worse it'll be.

https://transcripts.lsac.org/docs/default-source/research-(lsac-resources)/tr-17-03.pdf The average score gain for those who switched from nonaccommodated to accommodated/extra-time testing conditions was much higher at 7.57 scaled score points, …

LSAC publishes the data for repeat test takers who get extra-time accommodations; the average gain is huge. But why does it matter how it helped other people? It's pretty easy to gauge how it'll help you. Take a PT with 50% or 100% extra time.

I paid for one hour of consulting from a different website. It was expensive, but it did relax me.

@"Pride Only Hurts" said: Honestly, if you don't see yourself at a school why bother applying? Serious question so anyone feel free to pitch in. I know blanketing the t-14 is a common strategy but if I'm not enthusiastic about what a school h…

They access to both. They send waivers on three things (omitting ethnicity): (1) GPA; (2) LSAT; (3) GPA+LSAT. Don't assume that because you got a fee waiver based on GPA, the school is okay with your GPA. The person evaluating your application isn'…

Post your sectional scores and what you've been doing so far.

Do you identify as Hispanic or European? LSAC doesn't specify which box you should mark so it is up to you.

Michaela I'm not sure about that service. But you get what you pay for. If you're looking for an affordable service, I suggest looking at programs your school offers. Career services or writing centers can help you for free.

Most of your questions are directed towards law students and graduates; you won't find many of those people on this forum. Further since it can be so school specific, you should try reaching out to student and alumni from the schools you're interest…

I think if you had done enough research, you would know where to start. My point of saying that isn't to be disrespectful. I want to encourage you to be positive you want to get a JD before you get started. You should know about the schools you want…
