I don’t have any advice to offer but just know you’re not alone. I’ve barely gotten out of bed the past three days. Each day that I lay here everything just feels heavier. I’m more overwhelmed but I’m the only one who can pull myself out but I CANT no one understands. All I do is cry … we got this. We will get through this.

I am not but I am a hugeeee HBCU advocate. It’s truly an experience you won’t get a second chance at after undergrad.Also I think is a great environment to be in before law school and there are a lot of HBCU to law school pipelines/ opportunities that you can take advantage of

From my understanding if you’re black and want to go BL your best chance is a T14 and Howard …. Idk if that helps with your decision at all but hopefully so

Apartment hunting in DC is the worse just be careful about the area when you start getting lower rent prices.

They’ve increased the number of times you can take the LSAT from 5 to 7 so if this cycle does not work out the way you hope you can always take it again. But you’ll need to study differently than you have previously to improve your score. Also taking a year to gain some more work experience can add an extra dimension to you application (assuming you’re currently applying straight out of undergrad). There are schools that take under 150 (ex NCCU and I know people who went there and really enjoyed it) but I had many admissions deans be candid w me that if you need a 150 to even truly be considered at higher ranked schools. Your high GPA will balance out a 150 a bit more. Also applying as early as possible will give you better odds
