It's nearly impossible to get into any T6 school in their 40s, right?
My GPA is 3.85ish (T3 public school / soft STEM / 2-3 yrs of job experience / a lot of familial & medical hardships / a foreign military experience) , but can't really do any prep for my LSAT right now because of legal issues I'm currently dealing with.
I'm feeling super anxious because I'm in my late 30s.
How thoroughly do I have to read each passage? I just read the questions first and evaluated each choice, then moved onto the passage B. Then I read the first paragraph+ a couple more sentences and got this problem correct. As a beginner, did I have to read every single sentence and digest it?
Has anyone see anyone score more than 176 here?
I'm just curious.
I'm an international student and my reading/writing sucks. The only reason I'd pursue a law degree is because I have immense interest in Philosophy (particularly Epistemology).
That being said, if anyone whose English wasn't "ready" enough to tackle LSAT, what was your strategy to supplement your LSAT study? Please shed some light on this poor thing.
So far, I've subscribed the Atlantic magazine and am thinking of subscribing to Economist as well.
What are you thoughts? I've always been looking into those high school must read classics like the "Call of the Wild"? as well as practical books like "How to Succeed in Big Law Firms"
@JacobBaska Thank you for your guidance. It was very helpful. It's not actually pivoting-pivoting, because the job/military experiences happened before finishing my bachelor's degree. I've always been dreaming of becoming a lawyer ever since I was a little kid, but the external factors affected me quite negatively for so long. Because I have spent over a decade finishing my bachelor's I'm sure that they will question my stability... to name a few things I went through, I recently overcame cancer and was involved in an on-campus gunshooting incident/a huge car accident. I don't know what I should improve other than LSAT. Maybe I should do some legal internship and prove my stability? Thank you for your genuine advice. I'll do my best!
