Summer '09-I enrolled in a Kaplan Course, then I took the Sept. '09 LSAT and scored a 139 (oh, it was a tragedy, lol).

I re-registered for the February 2010 LSAT but was absent.

March '09 I enrolled in an "unpopular" LSAT course which turned out to be much more helpful than the Kaplan course.

I took the June 2010 exam but cancelled my score (I decided to keep prepping until I begin scoring in the 160's on practice exams).

I am currently preparing for the October 2010 or December 2010 exam.

I plan on applying to Touro for Fall 2011 admission. :)

Good luck to everyone! :)
