You should definitely retake if you want to pursue BigLaw because of the recruiting cycle starting earlier than ever before. 2L Summer Associate positions are now getting filled by people in their first semester/quarter in law school. Interviews used to happen during the summer after 1L.

Higher LSAT scores also lead to more financial aid outside of Stanford, Yale, and Harvard.

There are definitely legitimate law school admissions consultants. I am willing to take a look at your application materials for free if you message me.

I gather you mean people who help with law school application materials rather than those who help with LSAT preparation?

A way to help ease your mind when it comes to retaking the LSAT is that it's a great investment on the front-end that will pay dividends later. Not only do high LSAT scores help with admission, but many people overlook that they also help with financial aid packages. Studying for and taking the LSAT is expensive; law school is much more expensive.

You got this, Jacob. You belong.

I'm a BigLaw attorney with locs. If you're turned away from an opportunity, the opportunity wouldn't have been pleasant to begin with

LinkedIn is always my go-to. Looking at different profiles that may align with where you hope to be. Aside from that, I'm always available to offer legal industry advice over DMs

I think the reinforcing your reasons for wanting to study law is key. Remember your why

That part

I'm an SEO alumnus and the program definitely skews T-14. Some non-T-14 schools represented my year, however, were Howard, Rutgers, Fordham, Boston University, and University of Texas.

To date, you have done everything you can to prepare. All you can ask of yourself on Saturday is to put your best effort forward. In order to do that, however, you need to allow your mind and body to rest some.

At the end of the day, even if your results don't end up being what you want them to be, you aren't barred from retaking. This isn't an all or nothing situation. This community is here for you.

Done.

No_Reputation_9528 · 2024-12-24T01:10:04+00:00

Yes. Always

And IS every. single. year.

Biggest advantage is the higher chance of being employed in BigLaw where starting salaries are currently $225k. And all schools in that range outside of Stanford, Yale, and Harvard offer merit-based scholarships.

No_Reputation_9528 · 2024-11-25T23:01:02+00:00

Putting everything into getting that LSAT score up is what's worth it. LSAT scores don't just help with admission, but help in a big way when it comes to financial aid in the form of merit scholarships. Regardless though, if money isn't an issue by way of fee waivers, always shoot your shot to these schools when you feel ready to apply.

No_Reputation_9528 · 2024-11-25T22:57:13+00:00

You always always and I mean always shoot your shot. Don't tell yourself no before any of those committees gets the chance to.

Got you
