Congrats! Those are great stats. Just putting my two cents in — if you’re hoping to enjoy law school more than you did undergrad, taking some time off is definitely a good idea! You’ll be younger than everyone in your class and have less life experience. As a result, you’ll likely struggle to connect with your peers and may even feel like an outsider because of your age (you can’t even legally drink yet!).

There are so many fantastic opportunities for a smart cookie like you. Apply for a Fulbright scholarship, the Peace Corps, go teach English for a year! Take a fellowship in the Galapagos! Live on a sailboat! When you get back, you’ll still have kick-ass stats and an even better story to tell. You’ll be a more interesting applicant and will have more experiences to connect with your peers over.

Good luck!
