Extra Curricular Information

Re-applicant. Applied during the 2006-2007 cycle as a college senior with the lower LSAT. Admitted to one t-14, rejected at four, and waitlisted at three. Decided to work for a year and try again.

Advice to low LSAT/high GPA splitters: seriously, retake the test. Seriously.
