Hey everyone I’m here to just say, don’t give up.

Four years ago I started my journey to law school with a 2.8 GPA and an extremely low starting LSAT score. After obsession over the test, and with the tremendous help of 7Sage and its community, I was able to score a 171.

Yesterday, I graduated from Northwestern Pritzker School of Law and was awarded the Wigmore Key Student award.

Your past mistakes DO NOT DEFINE YOUR FUTURE SUCCESS. Anyone is capable of being right where I am.

So if things are hard right now, if the dream seems to far out of reach, just keep going. You will all achieve your goals. Work hard, study harder. Rely on 7Sage and the community here.

    Wow reading that gave me hope. I was so worried about my GPA, but I am not going to let a number define my future (except my LSAT score lol) . If youre reading this, I hope you get into the law school of your dream (3.(/p)

    This is so..... wonderful. I really needed to see this. Thank you so very much for sharing. We or at least me, need to hear encouraging words like this. It is most encouraging not only for LSAT but life in general.

    To the 7Sage Community, this is great. Keep it coming. Sometimes a boost of encouragement can mean the difference in a score, from 120 to 160 or higher. Thereby, it is not the test but the person's attitude towards the test that affects our score most of all. If no more than just studying a few minutes more in taking a break and coming back to it with a more positive attitude or outlook that "You, Me or I, We can do this.

    Thank you again and have a great day everyone.

    God, I really needed this. I just graduated from undergraduate, and this pandemic job market is killing me because I feel guilty staying home and not being able to bring some money for my family.
