Additional info & updates

Though I took the LSAT in Dec. 2003 and was accepted at a couple of schools, including Lewis & Clark, I ultimately decided not to attend law school in 2004 due to several mitigating factors. In subsequent years, my family has made its way back to Albuquerque, where we intend to settle permanently, and I'm now back in the bite-my-fingernails cycle as I await UNM's decision. I retook the LSAT in Dec. 2007 because my 2003 score was too old for UNM...got the same damned score, so my numbers remain unchanged. Personal statement and LOR's are very good (if I do say so myself).

Due to our family circumstances, UNM is the only school to which I have applied.
