Applying after taking a 3 year break

Hey guys,
I'm starting to study for the LSAT but I'm concerned about the actual application. I didn't keep in touch with my professors! What do I do for the the LoRs??

Try to get back in touch with some of your professors if you can, otherwise you can use an employer or even a leader of an organization you volunteer at (if applicable). If I could not generate at least one academic LOR, I would definitely address the reason in an addendum. From what I understand, admissions staff want to see at least 1 academic LOR. I would seriously try to exhaust every option for connecting with your professors before giving up. Talk to classmates who took a given class with you to see if they can put you in contact with your old professor. Don't be afraid to use social media, such as LinkedIn, to reconnect!
