Hi,

So for context, I'm in my 30s, I graduated in 2014 with a not so stellar GPA because of a lot of family and mental health issues. Later on in life I did get my paralegal certificate and I've been a paralegal ever since so I have a ton of legal and work experience. I tried applying to law school before but it seems like some of the top schools really wanted some academic references which I obviously don't have like 10 years after graduating. So I kind of rehauled my education. I got a second bachelors and I am getting a masters degree right now.

My second bachelors GPA is amazing, close to 4.0. Will law schools care about this? Will it get reported in CAS/LSAC?

Will they care about my masters if I do well?

I am hoping to get strong professor LORs AND one from my law firm.

I am aiming to prove that I AM GOOD at academics now, and when I was 18-22 I had a lot going on and it's representative of who I am NOW. What's the best way to flash these neon lights to law schools to make them notice without just filtering me out based on the number in CAS/LSAC?

Also, obviously aiming for whatever highest score the LSAT Goddess is going to bestow upon me!

Hello,

I am a 34 year old mom in San Jose, California looking to meeting and study with other people who are in the same area of life as me. I am studying in between work hours and when the kids go to sleep. If any of this resonates, lets study together!
