Hi all,
I'm in my mid 30s and from Toronto, Canada. I got my degree 4-5 years ago and I have been working at a law office for about 14 years with extensive community involvement as well. I applied to law schools at 3 different years and honestly my mistake was the first one I was not fully ready and I think I applied a little prematurely and second time, I did not make too many changes to my application, I then made some changes and applied a third year and every year, I got waitlisted by the law schools I want to get into, but never got in. One of my biggest issues was my LSAT score which was 157, not great.
It's been 2 years now as I had given up, but I'm now thinking of trying the LSAT one more time and see if I can get into the 160s, which I think would help me (with a better application), get in, although LSAT is one test I've always struggled with and my highest mark was always the logic games, which are gone now.
Wanted to see if applying now, for a fourth time potentially, after a couple of years away, with a better application and LSAT score (hopefully), will give me a good chance or would this be a waste of time at this point? I work full time and another part time job so I only have maybe 1-2 hours a day to study so I'm thinking of doing the LSAT later this year to give myself time to re-learn from beginning.
Any tips and/or similar stories are welcomed.
Thanks!
