Question1:

I have interned for 2 Republican state senators. I am applying to schools in more democratic areas. Should I include the names of the senators that I worked for?

Question 2:

I took classes that I think could make me look more diversified. Such as Gay and Lesbian Politics, Women and Politics, and Urban Politics. Should I include these?

Question 3:

One of my internships was part of a competitive university program. I have listed the name of the program as the title for my internship on my résumé. Should I also explain what the the program is? Or should I just list the duties involved?

And help would be great!

I am currently in a bit of a panic because I made the decision to pursue law school for the 2021 Fall term only at the end of July of this year and I am not improving my LSAT much at all from my diagnostic. I am taking the Oct LSAT (almost certainly erasing my score) and the Nov LSAT.

I am currently PTing at about 148-150. My Blind Review scores are closer to the mid-upper 160s which. I am hoping for a 158-160 for the schools that I am applying to, as most of them have a median of 155-157. I am becoming less confident with my abilities to reach a 158ish by Nov.

How much will I be hurting/helping myself if I test in January and apply closer to February? Or is it more wise to hold off a year?

Any thoughts or recommendations are more appreciated than I can put into words. Thank you.
