Self-study
I got a 168 on my first LSAT attempt (right in the range I had been PTing in, my highest ever PT was 171), and I have a 3.99 GPA with a double major.
I am a first generation college student. I have no attorneys in my family, and I've been doing social work in my rural hometown since I graduated college. My goal is nonprofit/public service work as an attorney, so I'm not planning on making a lot of money. I can't afford to take out a lot of loans for law school .
My absolute dream school is WashU in St. Louis. I'm from this area. I have professional ties there and family there. It keeps me close to home and to the communities I'm currently serving as a forensic interviewer.
Assuming I would even be admitted with these stats, I could never even dream of attending without a massive scholarship. Do I need to just give up on the idea of WashU with these stats? I am signed up to take the June LSAT, but there is no chance I am getting at or above their 175(!!!!!) median in a month.
I was thrown off during this question because only 3/5 phrases were actually highlighted in the passage for me, and I was in a time scramble. I'm not sure why but "innovators" and "conveniently" were not highlighted in the parapgrah either on the Law Hub test or in 7Sage. Why would that be the case? I lost time looking for phrases, realizing they werent highlighted, wondering why, trying ot understand if there was a mistake, all at the END of the section. Terrible.
