I really wanted to attend this yesterday, but could not make it. Will there be some kind of recording available for this? Or would anyone like to share their notes with me??? I'd be forever grateful!

George Mason, aka the Antonin Scalia School of Law. It has a very conservative student body (I know someone that goes there, and have talked to admissions people).

It's been anywhere from 2 weeks to limbo for me. Submitted most of my apps when my scores came out early January. The earliest I've heard back from a school was two weeks. One was an admittance and the other an invitation to interview. Others took a…

Hey, @perri.vanhorn ! I think it depends on the schools. Once you've submitted your applications, the schools will usually email you within 24 hours to let you know that they've received your application and that they are reviewing it. I've receive…

@rokulkarni2 This is definitely helpful, thank you!! That's pretty much what I've gathered from most people at this point. I did hear that some law school's have asked some odd questions, but that it was mostly centered around getting to know the ap…

@DEC_LSAT Thank you so much!!!!
-
@bjphillips5 Thank you that is super helpful!!! Going to brainstorm some good answers and properly prep. @palexandra when's your interview?? Let's talk via PM? @vduran1988 I know!! I was not prepared to interview anywhere haha. But I think this is…

@"Cant Get Right" Sure will! Interview is scheduled in February, so I'll try and get some thorough research done before I go!

@bjphillips5 it's for Drexel University Thomas R. Kline School of Law. Would you mind sharing your interview experiences with me? Please feel free to PM me!

@mcmlaw36 Thank you! I think this is a relatively new procedure within a lot of law schools? A friend of mine said the had an interview with Northwestern, and they asked a couple of odd questions alongside checking in on application weaknesses and s…

Hey, @vduran1988 !!! I feel your pain, my friend!! I was in the same predicament. I had already delayed law school for a year, just to find myself in another compromising position with another disappointing LSAT score (save for a minor improvement …

@lianaf92 @desire2learn Thank you both so much!! Best of luck to you in your future endeavors! Also hope to see you both in 1L

@mcmlaw36 Thanks, girl!! Wishing you all the luck and good vibes in the world for the rest of your LSAT/law school journey! Maintaining a positive mentality throughout the LSAT process is so, so, so crucial. I've learned this the hard way. Yes, in…

Thank you, @"Cant Get Right" !!! Well said. You've been a huge inspiration/voice of wisdom throughout this journey! You are so right, the LSAT really does have two faces (phases? ) you just can't let either knock you down. Honestly, if anything, …
-
@"Cant Get Right" Thank you, this is very helpful! I will go ahead and do that!
-
@Alejandro thank you! That's pretty much what I'm thinking! I guess I can go ahead and disclose what happened, and let them know that I will attach my certified driving record in which they will not see those charges because they were dismissed (min…

I have a tattoo on my earlobe (people think it's an earring) and another one that goes across my entire upper back and creeps up on the back of my neck, so I always keep my hair down at work. I've worked with people for over 5 years, and they never …

Agree with @"Alex Divine" - Quality over quantity! I've personally always been very worried and aware of burnout. I don't know what your work schedule or personal life schedule is like, but be kind to yourself when you study. Burnout is super real.…

Thank you, @Alejandro ! I think I'll make sure to include a little something into my application on that!
-
@"Creasey LSAT" Obviously the short synopsis of myself in the initial post is not my story/past struggles in its entirety Nonetheless it is something I identify as (if someone were to ask me), so I feel as if I would be lying if I chose "no" as the…
-
I'm not sure if I am qualified enough to give you a good opinion on this, but I would say that this is probably not something that would apply to a diversity statement? Did you write you personal statement yet? You could include that in there and b…

I was in the same boat. It took me about a year to really improve. I started out with around -10 or more LG, -15 RC, -15-17 on LR. Before the Dec. LSAT I was able to get -1 to -3 on LG (so that one was my biggest improvement, and I really banked on …

@vduran1988 Thank you for your kind words!! Much appreciate, my friend! Yup, I'm German! Born and raised! But I do have dual citizenship (my dad is American, former military, spent most of his life in Germany). My dad has literally been my rock in …
-
First of @"J. Tharp" thanks for this post! This made for a fantastic discussion! I'm kind of in the same boat as you are. I was also debating whether or not I should go to a T3/T4 school and just go for the Top 10 in class, but realistically that i…
-
@dreamlawschool I feel you, girl! I'm turning 28 in a few weeks, and thought I'd have my life together by now haha. @rakinalikhan hopefully our scores will be in the range that will still get us into the school's we're trying to get in. I am just S…

I 100% agree with @dcdcdcdcdc I have a couple of friends who graduated from T3 and T4 school's. They got more scholly money at those school's (compared to the higher ranked schools they applied to) and did really well and got the job's they wanted…

@bruingirl1205 Girl I'm right there with you! I'm turning 28 in a couple weeks, and I wanted to already be in law school by now! Sending you a PM now!
-
@LSATaker I've set up an appointment for every visit (via call and/or email). I always wanted to ensure that I get a tour, get to sit on on a class, and get to talk to adcomm while I'm there. I'm sure some school's just let you drop in too, but you…
-
@"Alex Divine" Absolutely! I know there are a lot of people on here who share the same struggle (delaying 2 years or more). Thanks again, and good luck to you too!!

It's absolutely helpful! I highly recommend talking to them when you visit. I've visited around 7 law schools, and have talked to each and every single admissions person, and have actually established some seriously good relationships with some scho…
