The best piece of advice I got out of David's presentation is that every single LSAT point matters. Study, study, study and DON'T QUIT until you have the score you need to get into your dream school!
Awesome. I’ll be there!
Personally, I think the MA sounds very intriguing. However, I’ve put a lot of thought into it and I’ll definitely be doing the JD/MBA. As a non-traditional student with a government/military background, I really feel like the duel degree will help me develop my skills and be better prepaired for joining the private sector.
I had looking into doing the JD/MA though and if the MA is something you’re truly interested in this could be the perfect opportunity to make it happen.
You got this @! I’m a fellow Non-traditional 2.8GPA guy and hoping to be in your position soon. Good luck and thanks again for the awesome webinar!!
Count me in too! Especially if you plan on working as a BR group.
Agreed. Location, location, location! California has several excellent schools and if you plan on practicing there (like I do) it's a no-brainer. Obvious exceptions could be made for attending T-14 schools on the East Coast but it's still a hard sell for many people who know they'll be living in Cali.
Excellent analysis @ ! I'm currently in a similar situation where I'm studying for the LSAT and hoping to go to law school within the next year but my wife and I are interested in starting a family soon. I'll be leaving the military after 10 years to pursue law and we really don't want to wait until after law school to begin our family and my wife is excited to continue her career without the instability inherent with a military lifestyle. It's really weighed heavily on my mind whether school would be too demanding with a young family, however, I've really come to realize that it's just going to be another job. I get up at 0500 as it is, work until 6pm, and then spend evening time with the family so there's no reason why I wouldn't maintain that type of work ethic in school. Like you, my LSAC GPA is painful due to my lack of discipline over a decade ago but now, with life experience, I'm ready to kill it. Besides, there's no way any law school can compare to the BS you have to deal with when you're enlisted lol.
I'm 31 and I've been on active duty in the Air Force for 10 years now working in budget/accounting. I'm currently studying for the LSAT and hope to start law school in the fall of 2020. I definitely feel like I'm behind the curve compared to most students but extremely excited to start this new chapter in my life!
I'll join you guys starting on March 13 for PT60 and stay with you through the June Test.
