Me and Breslin were always hanging on the quad at the harvard of the southwest 7:51 AM

https://www.spiveyconsulting.com/blog-post/bill-treanor-podcast 8:02 AM

the dean of gulc saying the economy is good is so fucking rich 8:02 AM

almost makes me not want to apply 8:02 AM

It probably is good for him. Olds loot and replace the young is how it works now 8:17 AM

line go up , culture go down 8:19 AM

yeah I toured gulc and the impression I got was just churn and burn students for big law, very little culture despite the rich history 9:23 AM

did the interface change again or am i crazy 10:55 AM

the dean of gulc needs to be 10:56 AM

actually i will not say that 10:56 AM

@vivian2828 literally do not worry about that. you were part of an organization that was helping people, and anyone with a brain would understand the situation. 10:58 AM

also, FERPA 11:03 AM

the september window closed? was i under a rock? 11:47 AM

i might be an idiot 11:47 AM

mhm 12:20 PM

october it is then 12:20 PM

kinda f'd up cus i took it the first time in oct '23. what if my score is worse in oct '25. im gonna go shake ass at a club 12:21 PM

@badhorrormovie thank you kind soul! i definitely overthink tf outta all this 12:41 PM

@vivian2828 i FEEL YOU!!! i promise you have nothing to worry about though. once you're in a school, speak to an advisor who is familiar about the bar character and fitness and your story!! that'll probably help ease your worries a little :) 12:47 PM

@NosyBeagle OOMF NOOOOOOOOO 12:47 PM

i believe in u 12:48 PM

october 2025 will be ur ***** 12:48 PM

female dog 12:48 PM

I am scheduled to retake in Oct, pending whether practice shows I can do better. Would like to break 170 12:52 PM

also doing the october retake!!! let's get this BREAD 12:58 PM

@badhorrormovie ty 1:45 PM

i am stressing now cus i might not have a job in a few weeks 1:45 PM

-3 timed/-2 BR on PT155 S4 3:49 PM

ima fucking fail 3:49 PM

just give me the 120 at this point 3:49 PM

dont give up 3:57 PM

the test is meant to range. most people range -/+3 points. thats not a drop so don't worry, its just test range. you've got it! 8:22 PM

didn't get the sidley job should i end my **** be honest 11:57 AM

nah 12:00 PM

considering it 12:01 PM

two rounds of interviews 12:02 PM

i have a mayer brown interview coming up but im clenching my ass 12:02 PM

you should have bitten your interviewer 12:56 PM

Can I get into a law school in NY/NJ with a 3.83 UGPA and a 148 LSAT 12:59 PM

and then ordered a $2,000 bottle of wine 1:05 PM

maybe they would like me more 1:05 PM

@ElegantPrincipledMongoose719 imma be real my friend, lsat score needs to be higher 1:06 PM

great gpa!!! but any school that lets you in with a 148 is not a school you want to go to 1:07 PM

genuinely do not think i can get it any higher 1:09 PM

I am looking at new york law school 1:10 PM

I am an eagle scout, have made deanslist every semester, and have good LOR's 1:10 PM

i dont know what more to do, slit my wrists for these people? 1:10 PM

and ive done 2 years as an intern for a nj superior court judge what more 1:11 PM

(thank u for responding btw much appreciated) 1:11 PM

omg oomf do not die 1:12 PM

hey at the end of the day you won't know unless you apply! 1:12 PM

how many times have you taken the lsat & how were you studying for it? 1:13 PM

This is my third time taking the lsat 1:16 PM

if you can explain/demonstrate why your lsat score is not indicative of your academic potential then maybe. But your LSAT score is the greatest indicator of your 1L gpa so you should be prepared to be in the bottom 50% of your class at whatever school you attend. So temper your expectations for grad outcomes. 1:16 PM

the first time i cancelled it (142) and the second time i took it and kept the score (148) 1:16 PM

im fine being in the bottom 1:17 PM

the biggest piece of advice anyone would give you is to retake the lsat 1:17 PM

im really not tryna be the top top i have no expectations of big law 1:17 PM

is whatever you want to do worth being $300k in debt for? 1:17 PM

as long as i get in somewhere and am able to practice family law/ real estate law at the end of the day lol 1:17 PM

fortunately i am in a circumstance where i do not have to worry about debt 1:18 PM

ah cool yeah go wherever and go get that VP position at your daddys company 1:19 PM

no 1:19 PM

ive been saving lol 1:19 PM

@badhorrormovie 3x (august will be my third n final attempt) 1:19 PM

you have $300k in cash? just become a day trader lol 1:20 PM

ive been told not to do it bc its taxable 1:21 PM

my friends all do it 1:22 PM

and im like whats the point of doing it if you have to be behind your device 24/7 and its taxable 1:22 PM

also no i was capping about the 300k but i am blessed to be in a position where i was given good scholarships undergraduate so i have money laying around for LS. finances aside, im not looking at t-14. 1:23 PM

im looking at pace law and they have a 149 lsat for their part time program. i have been interested in that program but since my lsat is one short of what they require there idk if i should think about it. 1:24 PM

being a splitter candidate truly sucks 1:43 PM

so i work in family law rn and i will tell you - most family law firms are really small and so they dont care about rank like at all. 1:57 PM

so for example, one of our named senior partners is a rank 150 school 1:58 PM

so if your goal is family law, (at least at my firm) whatever school takes you and apply to ones that are realistic 1:58 PM

yep i knew this lol 1:58 PM

attorneys be walking into the chambers and asking the clerk if anyone needs a job 1:58 PM

you have a good enough background where you should be able to get into schools where you're at the 25% for the gpa. at least that would be my expect 1:59 PM

im like damn if only i had my JD to say yes 1:59 PM

exactly that is what i am thinking too 1:59 PM

but idk how much to read into the stats 1:59 PM

like the 3.83 has got to be worth something i didnt kill myself 3 years at this school for nothing 2:00 PM

(entering my 4th year currently) 2:00 PM

the stats are a big deal to schools - remember rankings are decided significant by incoming class ranks. so they dont want to risk their ranking going down 2:01 PM

try to not apply late in the cycle tryna ensure taking advantage of rolling admission 2:01 PM

im applying as soon as deadline opens 2:02 PM

is your lsac gpa also a 3.83? 2:02 PM

yes i only have one withdrawal and i have stayed at this institution for my entire UG career 2:03 PM

and the withdrawal was a not fail 2:03 PM

it was for health reasons i had to get my appendix removed lol 2:03 PM

there are some programs (even chat gpt) that are good at giving you rough estimates of what your admission chance would be to each of the schools 2:03 PM

i have used chatgpt 2:04 PM

yeah then you're not in an awful place 2:04 PM

you'll be good 2:04 PM

thank you for the positivity 2:05 PM

my worst fear is getting rejected from every school 2:05 PM

apply to 1 youre overqualified for then 2:06 PM

always have a safety 2:06 PM

a reach and target school... 2:06 PM

i do im just tryna stay in the NY/NJ/PA metro area 2:06 PM

my pre-law advisor is a nincompoop and was useless thruout this process 2:06 PM

saturated but possible 2:06 PM

you dont need him there are more efficient ways of compling data to understandable information 2:07 PM

for context, she told me not to negotiate with law schools for prices. 2:07 PM

just so u understand where i am coming from here lol 2:07 PM

she is foolish law schools will look at how you act since before day 1 of acceptance 2:08 PM

negiotating is a prime skill lawyers need to have idk what she on about... 2:08 PM

exactly lol 2:08 PM

i was telling my friend that her rhetoric was lowkey predatory and dangerous 2:08 PM

just get ur lsat up apply to 3 reach, 2 target, and 2 schools youre overqualified 2:09 PM

how many schools should one apply to 2:09 PM

i can post my list 2:09 PM

shouldnt be too hard bc there is a large market for lawyers in east coast so there are many schools. mabye not as selective as you want but apply 2:09 PM

im applying to at least 7 taking lsat tomorrow and another in in october 2:10 PM

Notre dame columbia St Johns Villanova Seton Hall rutgers New york law school nyu Touro Pace fordham among many others 2:10 PM

Cardozo School of Law, Yeshiva University Columbia University School of Law Fordham University School of Law New York Law School New York University School of Law Notre Dame Law School Pace University--Elisabeth Haub School of Law Quinnipiac University School of Law Rutgers 2:11 PM

yessir love to hear it thats a solid list 2:11 PM

im thinking of putting in apps for new england university 2:11 PM

its a solid list but idk if i can get into any of them lmao 2:12 PM

might get too pricey depending on how the cost of application is but thats a good range 2:12 PM

we got this my friend 2:12 PM

and all the persoanl stateemnts for them are done 2:12 PM

bro dont get me started on CAS + the application costs 2:12 PM

its crazy 2:12 PM

YOU TAKE THE TEST TOMORROW??? if you take the lsat tomorrow, today is not the day to stress about what happens if you get a bad score! get hyped and feeling ready for the test and like put positive energy in then! 2:12 PM

the cas + application cost has my wallet crying 2:13 PM

not tomorrow friday* 2:13 PM

**** today is wednesday. now i'm sad. 2:13 PM

even my urologist was like bro this shits a scam 2:13 PM

ha. theres a pun there. sorta. 2:13 PM

im taing it tomorrow 2:19 PM

tricking myself into manifesting a 180 2:19 PM

yes 2:20 PM

tomorrow ima retake the pt i got a 180 on as a confidence boost 3:17 PM

you got a what on a pt 3:17 PM

wow 3:17 PM

thats wild congratulations 3:21 PM

mods I know the redesign is new 6:47 PM

but it is so fucked up 6:47 PM

like advertisements showing up in the middle of elements with text you are supposed to read 6:48 PM

the dropdown for searching universities on the "chance me" page being underneath the gpa/lsat input boxes so its unreadable 6:48 PM

@MightyUnableSphinx open a ticket and screenshot and send photos: v 7:49 PM

https://lsd.law/feedback?status=open 7:49 PM

any update for asu 8:27 PM

currently on WL 8:27 PM

yeah sorry all the adcoms are kicking it on the quad wto honor the life of Breslyn may he rest in peace 11:00 PM

@MightyUnableSphinx what page are you having problems with for the ads? Where is the ad located/what text is blocked? Are you on desktop or mobile? 12:01 AM

hearing a lot of mixed things, is applying November/December fine or should i just not apply at that point (3.74/waiting for LSAT score) 11:18 AM

yeah, it depends a lot on individual people 11:50 AM

it depends what your goal is - scholarship to a t14, you wanna be earlier into cycle. to get into a school you're fully on par with and not particularly caring about scholarship, being even in February wouldnt be awful 12:07 PM

I am just below the median LSAT for FSU, and I'm in state. I am below median GPA, but I have 4 years WE at a litigation law firm. Do I need to retake the lsat again? Or should I apply with stats now? 12:24 PM

@ririri03 November/December is usually considered “on time” 12:34 PM

wont help you but probably won’t hurt you either 12:34 PM

@LawCarrot If youre over 25th percentlile you’re probably fine depending on other soft factors like your essays and prior education/work history 12:35 PM

@TylerDurdenxTravisBicklexReader That makes sense, I'm working on my essays and plan on doing an academic addendum as well. I am also planning to try and apply early to help my case 12:40 PM

The median is 165, the 25th % is 158. I have a 162. 12:40 PM

I am below the 25th % for gpa though, but thats why Im writing an addendum 12:41 PM

@LawCarrot fsu has a hardon for lsat so i would retake 3:38 PM

Anyone else waiting on admissions results 1-2 weeks prior to classes starting ? Orientation is in 4 days , idk what to think or feel. 3:40 PM

Apparently people have gotten WL->A the day before classes start lol 4:18 PM

**** I met an older guy who started at UVA 5 days into the semester cause someone dropped out 4:19 PM

Yeah I wonder, I have a few acceptances I’ve put deposits down so I have a peace of mind i’m attending in just not sure where yet. My fear is moving and then getting an A after moving 4:29 PM

Cyberpunk 7:05 PM

where are you deposited? 7:06 PM

have yall tried calling the school yet? idk which schools at, but ik one of my friends called a school she was waitlisted at and they said "if youre still on the waitlist now, you're not getting in. at this point its basically our rejected one" 9:19 PM

lsat day 7:52 AM

ima make this test my ***** 7:52 AM

lsac better watch out 7:52 AM

Good luck! 11:09 AM

how is everyone 11:21 AM

I already had a shitty gpa and now that it's including transfer credits and dual credit from hs I'm getting a 2.2 rather than a 2.6 -_- 11:47 AM

gotta crush that lsat 12:55 PM

it is not impossible 12:55 PM

@NosyBeagle what's crushing it? I'm between 160-165 1:20 PM

john law school 2:50 PM

RC-LR-RC-LR 3:37 PM

Felt comparable to most PTs 3:37 PM

second RC was a little hard, hoping it was experimental 3:38 PM

for some reason I felt like I has taken the first RC before, but ik LSAC likes to reuse topics 3:38 PM

Hope you got the score you wanted! The waiting after blooowwwwwws 4:23 PM

@UnusedCulturedAxolotl well done. I'd shoot higher maybe 170's? 4:29 PM

@TylerDurdenxTravisBicklexReader good job 4:29 PM

ty 👉👈 4:50 PM

who is still on a waitlist… 5:17 PM

me 5:24 PM

<------ 5:26 PM

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel 7:12 PM

yup 8:19 PM

i hope everything works out for you guys 8:20 PM

what are my chances of getting into a school with a 3.94 gpa and 150 lsat 9:24 PM

i re took the test but idk if its gonna be a ton higher than a 150 9:25 PM

School starts on Monday and im still waitlisted... chat am I cooked? 9:26 PM

how many schools are you waitlisted on 9:28 PM

when people say john law school, do they mean atanta's john marshall law school 10:26 PM

or st john's? 10:28 PM

no they mean a school for john law 9:57 AM

really niche field 9:57 AM

they only handle law involving john 9:57 AM

With a 154 and 3.85 gpa is there really zero chance of t30? Interned in big law for a while (if that counts for anything), kjd 5:59 PM

if you have a 154 you should retake 6:02 PM

I will, but unfortunately I’ll be studying abroad in the fall so it’s unreasonable for me to think I’ll have time then. By the time I come back, I prob won’t be able to study and retake in time for this cycle. Really don’t wanna wait for a year before applying again. 6:03 PM

just lock tf in bruh 6:06 PM

men use to spend 16 hours in the mines and you cant study a little bit everyday? 6:06 PM

whos gonna carry the boats? 6:07 PM

I’m totally useless 6:08 PM

Especially at these exams 6:08 PM

But ur right 6:09 PM

you can study the lsat when you are outside of the country, fun fact 6:14 PM

i am being rude but seriously i would just try and put like 4-5 hours a week aside for it. persistence is the key! 6:15 PM

Nah ur right man, no excuses. I just don’t know what my availability will be during that period 6:40 PM

im so glad the middle eastern architecture/new science RC was experimental 7:54 PM

**** had some weird questions 7:55 PM

the simone weil/jazz/zebra mussels RC was probably harder but much more straightforward 7:55 PM

which i prefer 7:56 PM

Where is Wasp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvmm5TXgupw he would love this. At 8:30, using his axe in the game. 9:51 PM

Hold on. 9:51 PM

Jajajajajajajajajajajajajaj 9:51 PM

jajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja 9:51 PM

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 9:55 PM

Man watching that **** and not knowing the game has to be like at least shrooms for some people. 9:56 PM

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 9:56 PM

any asu updates 2:24 AM

? 2:24 AM

why did the gre data disappear? 5:43 AM

does anyone know if gulc pt program is full or not? 11:06 AM

adf 11:06 AM

does anyone know if gulc pt program is full or not? 11:06 AM

Is anyone experiencing refresh issues on the profile pages or the recent decisions pages? where the page refreshes on its own frequently. 4:31 PM

No issues on my end but noting the new color of names in chats i think creates a legility issue 5:36 PM

I understand your going for a consistent shade of red but maybe make it a smidge brighter? Like I think the red in the LSD logo on the top of the screen (different hue it looks like) might be slightly more legible 5:37 PM

actually yeah this red just throughout the website is hard to read, im on the "schools by state" page and its kinda hard to read 5:38 PM

how's that look? 5:38 PM

10000% better 5:38 PM

Instantly a huge improvemen 5:38 PM

Heads up that it looks like there is a textblock on the lsd.law/schools/states page at the very bottom of the screen where the new style is not being applied. Using the old blue 5:39 PM

did anyone else take the august lsat ? 7:55 PM

and have that awful behavioral economics passage 7:55 PM

@skinnyDarkMongoose We have similar stats, have you gotten in anywhere? 11:39 AM

hey girlies 3:34 PM

interface change??? 3:34 PM

Yeah wait, this interface is wild 4:08 PM

The old one was pretty solid 4:08 PM

Wait this fucking sucks lol 4:09 PM

@CrackedLowGPA can you give me usome feedback on what can be improved? 4:30 PM

People don't know UX design. I would still take it with a grain of salt. If you want to though, try cutting the roundness down on buttons and whatnot if you can. 'Border-radius does more than just aesthetic enhancement. It taps into fundamental human psychology. Sharp corners naturally create tension and formality, while rounded edges evoke feeling 7:20 PM

Example of website my people have been working on: https://www.malamacarbon.com/ 7:24 PM

I see what you mean. I'll tweak that. Still, I think the stronger negative feedback comes from more than just border radii. It'd be great if people were more specific in their feedback. They don't need to be exhaustive, but hearing that the site sucks and giving no extra information on how to improve it is frustrating for me. 7:43 PM

there are definitely UX gaps from v1 -> v2 but I'm blind to them because I've been working on the site for so long 7:44 PM

Yeah, I would be frustrated if people didn't elaborate. Most of the time, they don't but you also have access to how many people view the site too 8:18 PM

You do what makes the most business sense based on viewership and I will do my best to give feedback. 8:19 PM

Please just revert it 8:49 PM

Please share one thing that annoys you so that I can fix it 8:52 PM

Man, people suck. 10:02 PM

Let's just say that person is trolling. That person is a 23-24 applicant. They should at least say something about the interface for briefs or this is trolling. 10:03 PM

you know i was kinda digging the red 8:43 AM

it was pretty but red is too associated with rejections/danger/error/delete for buttons and links imo. it was too hard to balance it with normal UI conventions 10:13 AM

makes sense, human psychology go brrrrrr 10:37 AM

anyone else still on waitlists and hunting for any info on here lol 10:48 AM

i mean **** you could get off the waitlist at this point but do you want to? 10:56 AM

youd have to find housing in like a week 10:56 AM

and youd get 0 scholarship 10:56 AM

might be better to just r&r and work for a year 10:57 AM

I agree, @cryptanon . The red gave me the impression that the links were broken for some reason. 11:33 AM

Ok I need advice plss. I'm an in state applicant. FSU is a huge goal school of mine. I have 5 years, 4 of those at a law firm i am at now. I am 3 points below median 165, and I am below median for GPA. (academic addendum) I want to apply early, but not sure if I should retake the lsat again, and if so how I could make that timeline work? 12:11 PM

WE* 12:11 PM

Should I apply being below both medians? 12:12 PM

The last LSAT I took was the last lsat with games... 12:12 PM

Got an invite to do a pre-application interview with WashU. Does that really mean anything or just marketing to get more applicants? I mean I'm doing it regardless and could absolutely see myself there, I just don't know what they are going to interview me on without reading my PS and resume 12:46 PM

Is it just a vibe check like, "This guy doesn't give off serial killer vibes and also has a sembelance of a plan in life and law"? 12:47 PM

yeah basically 1:23 PM

I am an incoming 1L but I did it last summer and it did not really net me anything, I got waitlisted 1:23 PM

but then again, things might have looked different in a less competitive cycle 1:24 PM

I wrote Graham-Beach-Liley in my Argumentative Writing essay instead of Gramm-Leach-Bliley 9:25 AM

am I cooked? 9:25 AM

nah, that's not a big enough difference. still shows you knew it. 9:48 AM

dude finishing the personal statement might be the most beautiful moment of my year 9:49 AM

@TylerDurdenxTravisBicklexReader it is so over. pack it up, big guy 10:22 AM

In my argumentative essay I forgot all of the techniques I knew and mostly went with, "I don't know, I could see how a compromise is probably best in all aspects of this situation" 11:30 AM

I kinda didn’t even make an argument it just kinda turned into a persuasive essay on why capitalism is bad 11:39 AM

they shouldve chosen a topic i was less passionate about 11:40 AM

anyone heard anything from NYU yet? 12:52 PM

FADEEEEE INYO YOU 2:38 PM

hello my lsd lawers 2:38 PM

how are we 2:38 PM

i added better discoverability for user wisdom: https://lsd.law/wisdom - what do y'all thinkk? 2:40 PM

I lik4 3:52 PM

like* 3:52 PM

I am still waiting to hear about 3 wait lists. Anyone else in the same situation? 3:54 PM

I figure they have to get back to me tomorrow as orientation starts in 3-4 days! 3:54 PM

Apply to about 10-15 schools, unless you need to stay in a particular geographic area. Make sure at least 2-3 are "safety" schools. 4:04 PM

I have 20 on my list. I casted a wide net 4:30 PM

the past tense of cast is cast 6:15 PM

@cryptanon That's awesome! Thanks! 6:33 PM

I just finished my personal statement and feel like I am going to throw up 6:34 PM

My neck sounds like a cement mixer 6:34 PM

Does anyone know a good resource for mock interviews? 7:53 PM
