A couple of things. @Patroclus A collapse in the economy would make more people go to law school not fewer. People go to law and grad school to escape bad economic times. An advanced degree looks a lot better when you can't get a job. @westcoast…

I would still plan the June take and also schedule a September take. If you absolutely need to, you can always cancel the June take then. But if you don't feel like you can be ready for June I don't think July is a good idea. It seems better to me …

Their loss. Good luck with the rest of your cycle!

No wonder some 175+ LSAT scorers are not seeing the results they expect. There are several hundred extra of us running around. Even Harvard doesn't want/need us all like they usually would.

@LCMama2017 said: Well, I guess I'm in the minority. If you want to apply now call the schools that you want to apply to and ask them if you can still apply even though you missed their deadlines. I think you will be surprised at how many sch…

I don't think the class level is that important. Sure if you are confident that you can get a great letter of rec from a prof you have had multiple times for advanced courses, you should do that. However, any letter of rec from a professor in unde…

I think your cycle sounds like it might be going bad enough to be worth reapplying. I don't say this because you won't still have a good cycle by normal standards, but because you want clerking and academia. That should make Yale your number 1 scho…

Send a well researched letter of continued interest. This is so they know you will attend if they extend you a spot. Absolutely retake if you think you can do better on the LSAT. Unless accepted, you'll still be on the waitlist in July and your sch…

It seems much more impossible to 4.0 every class to me than to get a few A+'s to balance out a few A-'s. As such when I know someone on law school numbers has a 4.01 LSAC GPA I find it dramatically less impressive than a actual 4.0 from a place with…

@Shownuff said: Money/prestige aside, what would guys say if the most important thing you wanted after graduation is a degree that travels well? In other words... let's say you could go to a school which ranks 25-30 (with little to no debt) v…

Definitely KC or bust tells me WUSTL is probably right for you. You could browse firm bios in KC or call and ask which they would prefer.

I think the Berkeley jump is fueled by an increase in the reputation scores based on admiration of Dean Cherminsky. If the school actually gets better in meaningful ways like clerkship percentage, I would expect Berkeley to remain about where it is …

I have a couple objections here... First of all if you face the choice of Hofstra with a 75% grant vs Harvard, you should essentially never take Hofstra. Harvard is a great school which will give you employment outcomes worth that amount of debt i…
