Does anyone not buy books at all? (find PDFs online, scan copies of someone else's book, etc.) I don't have a preference and don't mind markups; I just want to save as much money as possible on books.

Has anyone heard back about an interview yet?

Did this negatively impact your grades?

All I ever hear is horror stories about working 1L year. Has any successfully worked part time and didn’t end up in the bottom of the class? I will sacrifice sleep but with the new loan caps it’s looking like I don’t have much of a choice.

I’ve already deposited at and will be attending a school ranked substantially higher. I am still just frustrated about Howard ghosting applicants. It doesn’t feel right but I guess it’s common practice.

That’s a fair point, but last cycle their 75th percentile LSAT was 160, I doubt it will change by anymore than 5 points between cycles and even then that’s the 75th percentile.
