I just submitted my LORs this past week. In my case, I used my manager and also the VP of operations at the company I work full-time and sent them a quick note asking them if they were comfortable submitting a LOR on my behalf for law school. I haven't taken my LSAT yet or anything, but I'd rather have them on file well ahead of time and plan to reuse them if I have to wait another year. Honestly, just ask anyone in a leadership role you've worked with (assuming you are working at some level) or maybe an academic professor if you're still in school.
In terms on how they should submit it, you would have to log into LSAC --> find & click "Manage letters of recommendation" --> then click "Add/Edit My Recommenders." From there, you will have to enter their information (Name, Address (I used my company's address), and email. Once you do that, they will be in the system, and there will be an option to "email them" the request. Once they receive the link in their inbox, they can submit the letter through it.

I can't say whether it is worth it or not, but I am taking a shot at it for Jan 2027 for the 2027 Fall admissions. I scored horribly on the diagnostic (142) and started the course at the beginning of this month. In my opinion, as long as you send the packet before the school's deadline, you still have a shot. Maybe scholarships and the number of seats left may be reduced, but there's no harm in taking the LSAT in Jan. If you feel it's too late but end up scoring high, you can always keep the score and apply the following cycle with a greater chance of acceptance and scholarship money. Again, this is just my opinion. Good luck in your journey!!!
@y00nislee hahaha this comment is long but I really appreciate it! Thank you so much for the insights here!!
@y00nislee Hi! Have you been doing the weekly PTs during the foundational section of the curriculum? Or did you wait until you got into the LR section to start doing PTs and practice?
