I'm 29 now, turning 30 in June. I'll be taking the LSAT in June as well. Starting this fall doesn't seem realistic, so I imagine I'll start in 2020. I'll be 31. It might be to my benefit to wait, though. I got my BA in philosophy at 20 and intended to go straight on to grad school and have my doctorate by 25. Didn't work out. Around 24, I went back for a second bachelor's, and then I got sick and failed an entire semester. And missed the deadline for retroactive withdrawal. So I've got some explaining to do, lol.
But showing is better than telling, when it comes to this sort of thing, and I could use this year to take some courses at a local university. I'll still have to include an explanation of the failing semester, but I'll also have evidence that, hey, I'm a serious and capable student.
I want to rush forward on this, because at 29, my life is nothing like I thought it would be. I mean, I'm living in Jacksonville, Florida. Didn't see that coming. I'm living with my partner and happier than I've ever been, though. I don't feel like I'm accomplishing anything, though, and I want to feel like that again. Luckily, my partner supports my decision to go to law school. I don't know what I'd do without him.
Anyway tl;dr - I'll probably be 31, and that's something I find upsetting, but it's okay, because speed isn't what's important now. It's all relative.
