Is anyone else’s fafsa lagging ? I always recieve it thursday so I’m a bit worried. Hopefully next week I get it

To tell you I have the worst anxiety for law school applications would be an understatement.

First, I’ll give you my stats, no excuses no bull shit.

1. GPA: was a 3.1 but LSAC scoring somehow made it a 2.7
2. LSAT: 165
3. C&F: academic warning my freshman year of college for academic dishonesty. I used outside sources on an online exam - yes, very stupid of me but an isolated incident.
4. I graduated in 5 years. I was originally a Kin major and end of my sophomore year transferred into POLISCI
5. Grades from my last two years show a great trend with all As
6. After I graduated I worked for the senator and in a law firm for 1 year. After that 1 year I started my own business with my dad which gave me more freedom to study for the LSAT.
7. I volunteer

regularly with

1. about 3 diff organizations 1. Garden non-profit 2. Special Olympics 3. Non profit working at the border of TJ

I just want to get into ANY law school. I’m so worried about my stats I can’t sleep I’m crying everyday and I resorted to tarot readers who keep saying the answer is no. (Yes, I know not to believe them but I wanted confirmation to keep pushing). With the competition expanding every year and medians rising I just don’t know what to do. I’m worried I won’t even get into T175s. Maybe I need reassurance or something. Someone please help

Okay for context I’ve been studying haphazardly for about 9 months. My diagnostic was a 142 and after I spent around 3 months studying the fundamentals. After studying the fundamentals, again I tested and got a 148, which to say the least was disappointing. However, after that I spent another 3 months focusing on specific question types and really honing in on RC where now I’m currently testing at 156-157 consistently over 4 tests. This is great from where I started but not good enough for me. I’m ranging from -9/-7 on Lr and -7/-3 on RC but blind review in both sections is -1/-2. I know I can break into the 160s even high 160s low 170s but I need a definitive study/drilling schedule to help with timing and accuracy.

Im also taking my test in June and I know it’s possible for me but I need the tips to get there.

Also I’m retesting in August if my score isn’t at least a 165+.

Also, I don’t want to hear your “that’s not possible” comments!!! Maybe it’s not for you but I genuinely feel like I’m on the standing on the precipice of it.
