Hi everyone! I am hoping someone can give me some advice on how to approach a personal statement when I don’t have any legal experiences. Since graduating I have worked as an audience development assistant (briefly) and Client Relationship Specialist (2 years in October) at a credit union consulting firm, working directly with clients. I’m not sure if I should even mention my current role or if I should focus on my passion and why I want to go to law school (specifically American in DC). Any insight or tips will be super helpful! Thank you!

Hi everyone! I scored a 147 on the September test and am taking it again in November. Since then I’ve improved on LG a ton and RC a little. I’m looking to score between a 155-160 with 158 as my set goal. My last two practice tests were a 152, 158, but then a 145 today. I did a section a day during the week and got a 152. Not sure why my score is fluctuating so much but it’s really discouraging. Does anyone have any study advice?
Thank you so much for your comment! I have gone 18/23 on LG but I will still score 11/23 on other sections. I’m finding it difficult to study for LG because when I do games I either get them or I don’t. I also find myself spending a lot of time on the first two games even tho I get them right. How often would you drill? 3 hours a day?
I was worried that would be the case. Not sure how the FLEX LSAT would be for me. My best section is always LR then LG then RC but recently I have fluctuate between LG and RC.
Hi everyone! I decided to retake the LSAT for the 4th time this June and apply for the 2021 cycle vs remain in the 2020 application pool. My final LSAT score for January 2020 was a 151. I started studying again mid-March as I have had a ton of time now that I work from home. My average for the last 3 tests I’ve taken is a 153. I do a section a day and have scored a 155 through that. I’m hoping to score at least a 160 in June and was hoping someone could offer some advice? Currently I do a section a day, review that section, and then drill the corresponding section + logical reasoning. I also take a PT every Saturday and try to review it on Sunday. I’m hoping a month is enough time but any advice would be appreciated!
Hi everyone — I started my undergrad at Florida International University in Miami,Florida. unfortunately due to tuition and family circumstances I had to return to northern Virginia. My gpa leaving FIU was a 2.5, then I took courses at a community college and transferred to George Mason University where I graduated with a 3.39. I am very nervous as to what my GPA will end up in LSAC as I just requested my transcripts. Has anyone been in a similar situation and can offer insight? Thank you in advance.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to leave a response! I feel like I have a solid understanding of how to go about my personal statement now! Thanks again!
I just took practice test 76 and received a 153 — LG was my highest Section going 17/23. RC was my worst (13/27). I am always fluctuating between these two sections. Thank you everyone for the advice!! I think I am also going to register for the August LSAT. Not sure if I have enough time between now and June to increase 15 points.
