What is the best strategy for re-applicants? Are completely different personal statements required?

Thanks, everyone.

I am going to re-take and reapply. I know I can do better, I owe it to myself. I deserve to go somewhere I love. I need to remind myself about why I want this and how bad I want it.

Four years work experience in the law field I eventually want to practice in. I already have a job here once I become an attorney :)

Following.

Can anyone else answer how they went about the core curriculum? Did they start again from scratch?

it's right by his face! Like in front of his face, left side. :)

Aw,

I just purchased an extension lol

I didn't take it there, but my friends who have taken it there love it.

I took the LSAT two times-- June 2017 and Dec 2017 and did not get the score I wanted. It was a terrible score. Applied anyway right before applications were due. I mostly got rejections (that I attribute to my crappy LSAT) and waitlisted at my dream school (a top 10).

I am hoping to slay the sept 2018 lsat and re-apply earlier this year. It's tough getting back into studying for the lsat a third time but I am determined!

It's going to be eight years since I graduated high school. I was so hopeful and excited about attending college out of town, especially because it had a notorious reputation for being a party school (Haha). My plan going into college was getting a 4.0 GPA and applying to law school my fourth year of college, becoming an attorney at age 25.

I am going to be 26 years old in a few days. After I graduated college (with a sub-par gpa), I decided to take a gap year. Then my mom got diagnosed with cancer. Waited another year while she underwent treatments. 2016 was THE year I was going to apply but decided my practice scores weren't as high as I wanted them. I applied in 2017 with a crappy LSAT score, the day before applications are due, and did not receive any acceptances to schools I wanted to attend. So here I am, studying for my third LSAT in September, applying again this fall.

Do I feel like a failure sometimes for waiting so long, for taking the lsat 3 times and applying to law school a second time? Yes. Things do not always go as planned and I wish I could tell my bright eyed 17 year old self that 8 years ago. We just have to go with the flow, trust the process, never give up, and trust the timing of the universe.

I will be 27 when I start law school and 30 when I pass the bar.

Hey there,

I just want to stay I am right there with ya.

Like you, I took Dec LSAT. I applied late to all schools, and hardly got in anywhere. It is daunting to look at the 7sage curriculum and try to tackle it, AGAIN but it helps to know there are people like you also in a similar situation.

If anything, I wanted to say you are not alone and studying harder this second time around will pay off!
