Extra Curricular Information

So here's my info, for posterity. I took the LSAT in June without studying (yeah, don't do that), and got a 164. Then I retook in December (after studying my tail off) and got a 170. Hence all of the apps. Moral of the story: study.

I have a M.A. in History and I've worked on a couple campaigns, one of which I played a large role in and was pretty unique. It's hard to tell how much of a role my softs played. As they say though, soft factors don't matter unless you have the hard numbers to begin with.

If y'all have any questions, feel free to PM me or post a comment, this site was tremendously helpful for me and I'd love to return the favor.
