What were you thinking of telling them? Gut feeling is don't do it, but I need to know more before I vote and I'm also interested in other people's thoughts on this.
-
Thing is, as you've likely found out, they won't take your paralegal GPA into account, only your college GPA for your first time through undergrad. Good LORs are a plus, but Admissions is mostly interested in GPA and LSAT because of US News. Rutgers…

@"Paul Caint", Thanks for tagging them. The webinar yesterday was such a great conversation.
-
Also, as you probably know already, be skeptical of schools with very low average LSATs. Stay away from them. If necessary, hold out for score improvements in the future. Improvement is possible following hard work.

@estouten25, How did you get yourself in this new habit of waking at 5? Especially in winter? I'm definitely willing to sacrifice but I just need some pointers on making the habit changes. What timezone are you in?
-
Yes, get your GPA as high as you can. You'll be happy later. Don't overload your schedule with internships/activities--pick your favorites but don't overdo it, like you were saying. In order of priority: 1) Grades, 2) LSAT, 3) Early career activitie…
-
Also, maybe ask Admissions if they can set you up with a recent grad or a 2L or 3L, maybe both an alum and a current student and focus on the networking with them more than the admitted students group so you hopefully get more real info and less gos…

@lsatsniper, That's a scary story, but you're definitely right that the site doesn't have much regulation. I'm assuming it's a private FB group?
-
Yes, and don't make your phone number public on there. And feel free to discontinue being on there if you see inappropriate stuff happening.
-
@"Leah M B", That sounds amazing. I like the PNW. Are you from Seattle or did you move there as an adult?
-
So they were up this year but they think they're going to decrease next cycle? What do people think about this?
-
Just remember the "nothing you wouldn't want your grandma seeing" rule, though.
-
@christian.sanchez8920, You'll be glad you make this choice to put it off later, I think.
-
@"Leah M B", Really hoping to visit Seattle someday. What's the University of Washington campus like?
-
@"Seeking Perfection", Which U of M is this? Ann Arbor?
-
Makes my day so far. I'm so thankful to this community. This test is going so much better with the peer interaction and "getting social."
-
@jyarmo, Here's another interesting one: Defending Jacob.
-
@jyarmo, I saw her book recently and kind of want to start with the first one she wrote. Did you read the other two?
-
@widner8, I'd maybe contact some tutors and see if you're a good match for each other.
-
@tylerdschreur10, No, but had some great summers there.
-
@jyarmo, Being an OWL is awesome! Glad someone else here read that book. Are there other books you've enjoyed that also inspire you to study law?
-
Good work! Maybe send ULCA an LOCI and find out more about Irvine.
-
Maybe you'd benefit from a pregame song?
-
@"Marco Antonio", On the bright side, we can be glad this didn't happen on test day. There's still time to improve and I'm confident improvement is going to occur.
-
Cool. That means I can make it! Thanks.
-
Isn't it 6pm CST? Is there something else at 4pm CST? Or was it moved to an earlier time? Just trying to do all I can to be there.
-
My thing is I can only take TLS for under 5 minutes then I see a mean comment and I'm like, no, just no. I do admire the person who stays on and finds something useful, though.
-
So I've been on here for a few months as a member. Before that I was on the Games pages and starting to read the forums and enough people on here convinced me to sign up. I've really enjoyed it since my first day as a member. I'm an NTS and grew up …

If you sat for a June exam on a Monday, then you'd get the breakdowns, right?

Hey, @tylerdschreur10, I've heard of Hope College many times!
