Hi,

Hi, I have a discord group! Would love to have you in it: https://discord.gg/KQAHAgD8
Created a section for parents (it's empty right now because it's new but would love to connect!)
Would love to connect and hold each other accountable! It's tough balancing home responsibilities with studying, but I am confident we can do it with some support!
Hi @ -- I appreciate your insight.
Firstly, this post was not meant to act as a platform for everyone to tell me what a "horrible" idea it was to sign up for the June LSAT (even though I already did it and I am not withdrawing). If you don't agree with it, that is fine.
Secondly, I would NEVER assume I could just walk in cold and take a MCAT or Bar Exam, because that all requires previous knowledge I don't have -- (Years of Biology/Chemistry/Anatomy classes / law classes?) That is just asinine. I am not entirely sure I would compare years of Doctorate-level classes to the advanced logic & reasoning that it takes to complete the LSAT. You can train your brain to learn the LSAT. You can't train your brain to all of a sudden know human anatomy and law theory.
This post was hoping for some words of encouragement. If you don't have any, that is a-okay with me! I will live on.
I respect your opinion, though. Thanks for commenting!
PS for anyone else reading -- Score Preview is only available for first-time test takers.
Ok, well what a relief -- I was flipping out because I thought it was just me. Hopefully they fix it ASAP.

Hi @ -- I wanted to take it this year to see if I could somehow avoid waiting until Fall 2023, given that everything goes well. Since it's my first time taking the test, I do have the option to cancel the score if it ends up being something I don't want (Thanks to score preview).
I appreciate the insight though, and thank you for commenting!
Hi @ -- I appreciate your response SO much! I know that it is not popular opinion to not take a diagnostic and just go for the first LSAT but I got approved for LSAT waivers, so I think that was a big part in me not overthinking it and just going for it.
I think I am just putting confidence in my own abilities to do well since I do well in a test setting. The 160+ range was what I was aiming for so it is nice to know I am on the right track as far as what score I think I need.
I appreciate all your input! Thank you!

Hi everyone,
So I have a dilemma -- I graduated with my bachelor in July 2021. I am a non-traditional student (Finance major, started freshman year of college in 2011 and was on and off in school for about decade).
I recently decided I want to apply to law school (something I have been considering for a year or two now). Problem is, I have a low uGPA (according to LSAC). They recalculated my GPA to 2.79 (ouch). It is not what I graduated with, but due to some irresponsible early years in college, the grades screwed me. This was when I decided I wanted to be a mathematical sciences major at one point in 2012-2014, the classes did not go well.
I have NOT taken the LSAT yet, and I am scheduled for the June 2022 test.
I have always been a good standardized test taker (SAT: 1860/2400 at the time, ACT: 25 (ish), ASVAB: 97 -- (Note: did not go to military but took the test because I wanted to go at one point). I do realize, however, that the LSAT is a different beast. Not sure how I am going to do, since I opted NOT to take a diagnostic, I do not see the point personally other than potentially stressing myself out.
My target school is Florida International University (T100 school). It is somewhat local for me and they are one of the only law schools in the area with a part time program other than Nova Southeastern University (which is ranked considerably lower). I am trying to go for their part time program. I am a mom (had my son in February 2020) and it just works better for me and my life.
Any advice? I am so nervous. What type of score do you think I would need to be considered competitive?
ANY words of encouragement are greatly appreciated. This whole thing is causing me anxiety lol.
Thanks.
This discord group has been active since June, and we discuss techniques for upcoming exams and give each other support!
