I’m just trying to get into a top 50-100 school, nothing too crazy. 3.9 GPA, T3 Softs, and hopefully a 160 though I might get stuck in 158 purgatory.. (currently in the low 150s)
What are the chances of me getting into a law school in between like the top 80-150 with a decent scholarship (more than half of the tuition)? I have a 3.9 GPA but a 152 LSAT.
Context about me: Did two good internships and have a sad but unique personal statement as to why I chose law.
(Asking because this test has been one of the worst experiences of my life, and I’ve genuinely been through a lot. English is my 2nd language and I will retake but lost all motivation and hope so I want to see if my official 152 can still be enough if it comes to that)
I had some messed up things happen to me at the age of 13 which led me to want to pursue a law degree. Now I graduated college with a 3.9 gpa and need to study for the law school entrance exam called the LSAT.
The problem is, English is my second language and this test is extremely difficult. I have never been good at standardized tests given my terrible SAT experience but I promised myself that this time, it was going to be different. Turns out, I cannot keep that promise. I took a gap year and 6 months of it was wasted because I was too scared to study and see myself fail.
Then I actually started studying and did a somewhat consistent studying for 3 months, took the real exam and got a mediocre score. I think I got lucky on test day to even score that mediocre but ever since then for 2 months I haven’t done any studying. I despise this test with all of my being but if I don’t get a better score, I cannot go to a decent law school or get decent scholarship.
I should be hella motivated right now, I have a story tied into every aspect of my life and personality that led me to pursue law, and it’s what I always wanted to do the most. But now that the time has come, I’m too scared. I feel like a deer caught in headlights. I need to apply to law schools in 3 months but have messed up EVERYTHING. I should have studied better more consistently and now I ruined it.
Basically, as I was buying the jeans it said “less than 5 left” or something. I bought them, checked the listing and it said out of stock. So now I’m wondering if I’m gonna receive an email saying “oh sorry this is actually out of stock we made a mistake.”
I need these jeans for an event so that’s why I’m tryna see if I should trust that they will get shipped or have a backup plan. Thanks!!
Been grinding for 4 months, took it in April scored in the low 150s. Lost all hope and motivation, didn’t study much between April and now. If I give it my absolute best and study 8hrs a day, can I see a meaningful increase by August?
I feel like August is my only chance at applying early which is why I’m seeking y’alls opinion on whether this is out of touch with reality or actually plausible. Thank you!
This is probably a common theme in religious households but the hypocrisy is eating me alive right now and I’m extremely pissed off. My parents are very strict, they never allowed me to date in high school or college, now I graduated and am living with them while I’m preparing for the law school entrance exams.
Now they’re coming up to me making delusional comments like “you have the ability to give life that’s beautiful” or straight up “we want grandchildren”. These comments disgust me because up until this point in my life I let you put your rules on me and influence me but now how disgusting is it of them to try and influence me into this bullshit? It’s my body, it’s my life, and it’s my choice. The mere thought of marriage repulses me because I’m not familiar with men. Only had distanced friendships with them.
So now for my parents to come up to me and try their manipulative behavior and influence me into doing something to my body and life just for their pleasure of having grandchildren is absolutely fucking wild to me. I’m extremely disappointed in the way my life has been going due to them and these comments were the cherry on top. And no unfortunately I can’t move out until 2027 due to financial difficulties.. Sorry I just had to rant, I’m livid.
I just took the writing part and throughout the exam my stomach made loud noises which happens when I get hella stressed. What are the chances of me getting flagged and potentially not approved? Will they think I talked or something? Please I would appreciate any ideas y’all might have 😭
EDIT: also due to my computer’s camera quality, my ID looked a bit blurry do y’all think that’s an issue :/
I had some family related stuff that prevented me from studying for and doing the writing section. I’m gonna start studying today and maybe take it on Wednesday or Thursday. How much delay do you think there would be for my score release?
I know some people said theirs got approved the next morning but I have a huge mirror in my room that I can’t cover and idk if the website they use is gonna flag me and take weeks to review and approve it :(
