Tough decision, but for the best.

It's with a heavy heart that I've decided to postpone this whole cycle, I'm going forego writing the December 2016 LSAT in favour of writing the September 2017 LSAT. I'm scoring in my current target range of the mid to high 150s, which would comfortably get me admission into the Canadian schools I wanna go to, but my GPA is so high (3.94) that I feel it would be an injustice to get an LSAT that low. Therefore, I've decided I want to go to Harvard, or Yale, and my GPA is at those standards, but I want to get an LSAT of a similar calibre to that of my GPA.

I've decided to take a little bit of time off, and then start fresh in a few weeks and write in September 2017. I'm going to upgrade to Ultimate + and extend all the way until September 2017.

Inspiration came from Alex Divine's post a while back, HLS, here we come.

    Same boat. Same GPA. Same goals. Same Plan.

    You made the right choice. Don't waste that GPA, you'll end up regretting it for the rest of your life. Even if you don't want to go to HYS, you can get into any school with $$$ with a good LSAT.

    See you at HYS :)

    Congrats on making the BEST decision you could have made.

    Hey Dillon, would you mind extending me by like 24-48 hours so I can call my credit card company and get them to raise my limit so that I can pay for all of the upgrades I want?

    @abmustephan I, like you and @"Alex Divine", am in the same boat with the same plan. Congrats on the decision, I know it was a tough one because I've also made the same decision. Cheers!

    Yeah, great call. Don't even worry about the "heavy heart." Seriously. While everyone's taking the LSAT this weekend, you should take off and celebrate!
