Additional info & updates

Applied to schools for the 2009-2010 cycle, got into a few decent ones, but didn't really care for the results. Just retook the October LSAT, so I am just waiting on that score now.

***Edit: October score wasn't exactly what I was hoping for, but it's still an improvement I guess (Went up from 161 to 165). Will probably change my application strategy a bit though.

Congrats on IUB!hey can I ask you to confirm that 165 is you high LSAT, or is it fudged/averaged? I am sweating bullets waiting for IUB but i think i am just a hair under their full ride giveaways. also did you send on 01-06-11 or is that when it went complete? I went complete a couple days before but have heard anything. sorry to be freaking out i'm usually pretty chill lol.

FSU Scholarship

Is your scholarship a one year scholarship or is it guaranteed for all three years? I received 10k for my first year, but no guarantee for 2L or 3L.
