Absolutely write a diversity statement. Your experiences as a refugee are a part of who you are and your perspective will definitely add to the diversity of any schools student body.

@"Pride Only Hurts" I'm done University and I work maybe two times a week. Which leads me to spend over 30 hours or more just studying for this exam. So personally for me, I think studying for a year would be mentally draining…
I would only recommend ED of you don’t have to worry about money AND it’s your absolute top choice. I’m sure you’ll hear different things from different people but I would only recommend ED to people who can check off both of those boxes.

I've always thought of myself as "first gen" since neither of my parents graduated college. But one of my grandparents did. Does that make me not a first gen? I've never thought about it too hard but this thread has me wonde…

Columbia does have the bigger name. But I encourage you to check out UVAs employment statistics. https://abovethelaw.com/schools/university-of-virginia-law/ Here's Columbia. https://abovethelaw.com/schools/columbia-law/ might be easier if you kno…
Seems like you already started out with pretty incredible LSAT skill. I wouldn't worry about it too much if I were you. Everyone is able to adjust to the "harder" tests. You just need to expose yourself to that material and BR thoroughly.
I live in Georgia, went to Emory for undergrad. If you’re looking to practice in GA then UGA is a really great choice. It seems they really dominate the market here since a lot of Emory alum go out of state. Georgia state has a really strong netwo…
Thanks for this! And congrats on making it this far without a mountain of debt!!!
If you could go back and approach landing a public interest opportunity differently, what would you do? Do you feel like you used all of Michigan’s resources for stu…
Totally depends on how you're feeling about dedicating the time and energy. I could definitely retake in November. Might even improve a bit, but I'm checked out mentally so it's just not worth it for me.

Good deal. Mine was slightly lower than expected :-(
Uggggh. Don’t know what to do now.
Happy to help you make a decision if you want. Just shoot me a message if you need to bounce ideas off of someone.

@"Pride Only Hurts" I feel the same way, although I did find the 26 LR section to have a few difficult questions tbh. Do you think you broke 170?
Only if I got a little lucky in LG. I’m realistically expecting a mid 160s score. I might’ve done…

Are you able to push back your test date? Or even perhaps delay a cycle. I don’t know how long you’ve been studying but it sounds like you just need more time. For me, brute forcing my way through learning the material wasn’t enough to actually fu…
