I am a military veteran who became a police officer, where I have been for twelve years. I have been slowly working on my degree, which will be conferred in a couple of weeks, 3.75 GPA. Practice tests so far are high 150’s/low 160’s, sitting for the Dec and Sept LSAT.
2) Biggest worry? I completed my first two years of undergrad at a community college simply because it was cheaper and I could pocket the remaining GI Bill money. I also completed a substantial amount of coursework online at Colorado State University because I was on-call as a police detective so it just vibed well with my life. Will this be a problem? I was just trying to be smart about it, but I am reading a lot of information that some schools may not like the lack of pedigree.
3) Ideas for PS – Articulate my experience in court and with working with attorneys in investigations to explain the progression into the legal field. Other ideas include: I am an Ironman triathlete, so maybe outlining the hard work and commitment required to reach long term goals? I am not sure how to plug in the military line, as my job in the service was not even closely related to the legal profession. I was just a teenager searching for adventure (Army Sniper).
4) I did not, I mostly use the explanation video features and rarely log onto the forum.
