Additional info & updates

7/11/16: After finally scoring in my PT range on the June LSAT, I renegotiated my award letter.

3/25/16: Practice testing for the June 16' LSAT, Going well so far.

2/26/16: Dinged at a couple more schools today. In all likelihood this is probably turning into my "test-cycle", I'll probably just pay for a class,re-take the LSAT, and start this all over again next cycle. I know I can score near or above 160 mark.

2/16/16: Dinged at Maryland, which is okay because I was just using that to up $$ offers from better schools on my list.

$$ Listed annually

Did not have a strong LSAT in Dec 15' thought about re-taking (took 2 PT's in total around Thanksgiving, I was averaging 157-159) until I received some good news. So the LSAT is not great but I do have a knack for writing amazing essays that really resonate with the reader.

**Regarding the difference in GPA's, didn't do so hot in Community College the first time around. Went back with more focus, and did really well. Had a professor who went NU, he introduced me to some other professors there. Wrote an awesome essay, got accepted and really excelled there. Graduated and started thinking about law school.

How to fix cycle...
Monday, February 08 2016 at 08:18 PM

Hi--I had the same issue. To update the cycle, go to the "My LSN" tab, "Settings" tab, and then "Application Profile/Update Cycyle" tab. I also had the same thought--are school officials trolling this site?! Either way, best of luck to you.
