Hey everyone I’m here to just say, don’t give up.
Four years ago I started my journey to law school with a 2.8 GPA and an extremely low starting LSAT score. After obsession over the test, and with the tremendous help of 7Sage and its community, I was able to score a 171.
Yesterday, I graduated from Northwestern Pritzker School of Law and was awarded the Wigmore Key Student award.
Your past mistakes DO NOT DEFINE YOUR FUTURE SUCCESS. Anyone is capable of being right where I am.
So if things are hard right now, if the dream seems to far out of reach, just keep going. You will all achieve your goals. Work hard, study harder. Rely on 7Sage and the community here.

This is amazing! Thank you for sharing this update. Your explanations on questions are always spot on and helpful but actually it is your posts of your entire journey to law school that are hugely inspirational.
It is definitely an uphill battle for those with sub 3.0 GPA and reading about you getting into such amazing school even if it was just days away from starting is one those stories I remind myself of when I am feeling down or like I might settle on going to a school where I don’t really want to go. I am not surprised to hear that with your perseverance that you crushed it at Northwestern but congratulations this is well deserved and I am sure a long time coming!
Quite testimony. Thank you for sharing and congratulations.
Congratulations & thanks for the inspiration!

This is great! Too often I get "Well, maybe it's not for you" or "People are born with a knack for that thing" and for the first few months, I may have believed that. I was inspired hearing your persistence after tuning into the community here, and now more so, knowing that you crossed that finish line. Thank you!

Congrats! Thank you so much for sharing
This is so..... wonderful. I really needed to see this. Thank you so very much for sharing. We or at least me, need to hear encouraging words like this. It is most encouraging not only for LSAT but life in general.
To the 7Sage Community, this is great. Keep it coming. Sometimes a boost of encouragement can mean the difference in a score, from 120 to 160 or higher. Thereby, it is not the test but the person's attitude towards the test that affects our score most of all. If no more than just studying a few minutes more in taking a break and coming back to it with a more positive attitude or outlook that "You, Me or I, We can do this.
Thank you again and have a great day everyone.
Thank you so much for sharing this!!!
