Just for more reference, not all lawyers have those stressful 40+ an hour jobs. Most successful lawyers I know shop at J. Crew for work clothes lol
Agreed!
I completely understand how you feel. My husband and I have decided to start a family and the thought of kiddos combined with LSAT studies and law school sometimes sends me into a mild panic attack ha! But honestly I've realized there is no job that…

For Cornell, national reach won't be a problem. Especially with respect to big law.
UT Austin's reach is good, but it's certainly not nearly as portable, nationally speaking. If you attend UT Austin, expect to practic…

@tringo335 totally don't talk to people! Everyone just shares their anxieties. It's not helpful
Lol will do. I may be hitting you up on DM for meditation tips...

@sillllyxo I think a lot of it is about finding the thing that works for you. Not every teacher will resonate with you, nor every form of meditation. There are literally hundreds of kinds so it takes a bit of exploring…

Yes. Buy it.
I think this sums up my take on this matter
I was like: 'I can wax poetic ...or I can just make it plain' lol. There's really not much else to say. Yes, yes, yes you sh…
Congrats! I met a lawyer when I first started to decide if law school was for me and the first thing she told me was be prepared to take the LSAT multiple times. Happy to know your persistence worked out for you
7Sage is so awesome. I started off with the LSAT Trainer and while it was very helpful, the lesson structure, community and videos on Sage are very helpful. Like Jonathan above said, is there any way you can scrape some funds together and purchase t…

It sounds like your course load would have you studying part time .. and studying only part time until February to complete the Premium for a 170+ may not be doable. I work full time and am on the Premium package. I am only able to study a certain…

@tringo335 that's so kind of you to do. I am off and currently not working (aside from law school applications) so I could potentially pull it off. Any specific course you'd recommend? I see you mentioned the 'medium level'? …
Dannnngit ....like @LCMama2017 said can you talk to your parents again? Tell them to come on the forum and talk to us we'll convince them lol. I definitely think you shouldn't lower your standards. Any way you can get a roommate if you have to move…
7Sage is awesome and they also have a schedule calculator if you sign up. I plugged your dates into mine just for giggles and in order to complete the medium level plan by Dec 1 you'd have to study 59 hours a week. I'm not sure if you're able to stu…

Definitely some luck involved in this. For one question, I changed my answer 3 times in the last 30 seconds of the section. Ended up blind guessing the right answer.
Congrats! I…
Political affiliation has no bearing in admissions. If you touted your allegiance to David Duke in a PS I can imagine that would have an impact but unless your PS is centered on politics , I wouldn't worry. If you're that concerned just don't bring …

@tringo335 That's what I was thinking too...I may just not mention him directly but use a phrase like "the immigration rhetoric surrounding the 2016 election" to work my way around it...
Yea that sounds perfect!
I read this when I was trying to decide if law school was right for me. It gives a pretty good look into what law school is really like and was an interesting read.
