Additional info & updates

Very likely going to postpone and not take the LSAT until October. I've only been studying for ~8 weeks and I'm not in the range I want and think I can do better. Updating my current max on PTs as I go.

Waiting for LSAT score to have serious picture of where I'm applying. Didn't list choice number for Yale and Harvard because I'm not sure I'll apply, and doubt I'd be accepted.

............ 10/23/15 update...........
Got October score, 164. Spent the time between postponing in June and October doing everything but studying, and was sick leading up to and during the test, so I'm just thankful it wasn't a 154. Will probably retake in December and apply this cycle, might retake in June and apply next cycle.

..........01/04/16 update..........
December LSAT score up by one point to 165, not exactly ideal, but I again didn't study so there's no one to blame but myself. Have all three rec letters in so I'll be sending off my apps in the next few days.

.......01/22/16 update..........
Bombs away, submitted all apps but Yale because I'm hesitating on bothering, especially with all of the extra material they ask for on their application. Hardly seems worth the time and money given my score.
