I am a 54 year old grandmother who has worked in the industrial setting for my adult working career. I completed my associate degree in 2007. I have always made good money but never enjoyed or felt challenged by my job. Probably because it was a job and not a career. I will complete my studies for my bachelor's degree in August and write the LSAT in June. I have been overwhelmed at times and felt that I do not have the energy for law school but my heart tells me if I don't follow through on this, I will regret giving up my dream of getting my law degree, for the rest of my life. So, I just keep moving ahead one step at a time and I know I will get there. Besides, we all know how fast time flies after 30. I am inspired by all your stories, I thank you for sharing with us. I wish you all the best : )

I completed my undergrad degree in April 2020. I am 60 yrs old and started studying for the LSAT last year. It has only been the last month that I have seriously studied. I like what Hendricks had to say about your plans for your law degree. I plan to work in Environmental law. I am passionate about animals and a clean, sustainable environment, so a law degree is how I can best safeguard both. My concern for both is a part of me, and something that will be important to me for the rest of my life. I don’t know when I will get into law school, but I will, and when I do, I will do my best to protect the sacred beings on this earth. Even if I am 80 when I finally graduate. I absolutely agree with Hendricks, that age is irrelevant.
