you were found not guilty though so i dont see an issue here

as long as you're candid about it if they ask

the uni said "would normally not ever be reported since you were found not responsible for all charges. So, you technically have no history of misconduct to report. However, some Law schools are more thorough and stricter in their process of gathering disciplinary information"

interesting

so idk. potentially. potentially not.

youd think since there wasn't any actual discipline to come from it though, you needn't worry

were you like a TA or something?

i worked in the SA clinic on campus. girl was having a PTSD episode and the hosts knew i was able to handle it and get her home safe.

so they called me asking me to take care of her. then f**** a**hats then shot fireworks outta the window.

youd think, i just worry

bro holy **** lmao

my school had some dumb **** but not like that

although some dudes threw a couch out a window one time

Top 3 nationally ranked party school, what can i say

..thats def worse than fireworks

i feel like that list could be a little off

saw no mention of mine

i mean... not bad to not have that reputation tho

oh its got a reputation thats bad enough, so i was hoping wed have something going for us

haha at least its known for something. whats that line famous people say "any attention is good attention"

oh its known for something alright

a very esteemed university of higher education, the "harvard of the south" if you will

lmaoo

ASU mention?

Me and Breslin were always hanging on the quad at the harvard of the southwest

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

the dean of gulc saying the economy is good is so fucking rich

almost makes me not want to apply

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

line go up , culture go down

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

did the interface change again or am i crazy

the dean of gulc needs to be

actually i will not say that

@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.

also, FERPA

the september window closed? was i under a rock?

i might be an idiot

omg it closed like last month im pretty sure

oh wow

mhm

october it is then

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

@badhorrormovie thank you kind soul! i definitely overthink tf outta all this

@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 :)

@NosyBeagle OOMF NOOOOOOOOO

i believe in u

october 2025 will be ur *****

female dog

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

also doing the october retake!!! let's get this BREAD

@badhorrormovie ty

i am stressing now cus i might not have a job in a few weeks

-3 timed/-2 BR on PT155 S4

ima fucking fail

just give me the 120 at this point

dont give up

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!

didn't get the sidley job should i end my **** be honest

nah

considering it

two rounds of interviews

i have a mayer brown interview coming up but im clenching my ass

you should have bitten your interviewer

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

and then ordered a $2,000 bottle of wine

maybe they would like me more

@ElegantPrincipledMongoose719 imma be real my friend, lsat score needs to be higher

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

genuinely do not think i can get it any higher

I am looking at new york law school

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

i dont know what more to do, slit my wrists for these people?

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

(thank u for responding btw much appreciated)

omg oomf do not die

hey at the end of the day you won't know unless you apply!

how many times have you taken the lsat & how were you studying for it?

This is my third time taking the lsat

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.

the first time i cancelled it (142) and the second time i took it and kept the score (148)

im fine being in the bottom

the biggest piece of advice anyone would give you is to retake the lsat

im really not tryna be the top top i have no expectations of big law

is whatever you want to do worth being $300k in debt for?

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

fortunately i am in a circumstance where i do not have to worry about debt

ah cool yeah go wherever and go get that VP position at your daddys company

no

ive been saving lol

@badhorrormovie 3x (august will be my third n final attempt)

you have $300k in cash? just become a day trader lol

ive been told not to do it bc its taxable

my friends all do it

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

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.

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.

being a splitter candidate truly sucks

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.

so for example, one of our named senior partners is a rank 150 school

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

yep i knew this lol

attorneys be walking into the chambers and asking the clerk if anyone needs a job

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

im like damn if only i had my JD to say yes

exactly that is what i am thinking too

but idk how much to read into the stats

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

(entering my 4th year currently)

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

try to not apply late in the cycle tryna ensure taking advantage of rolling admission

im applying as soon as deadline opens

is your lsac gpa also a 3.83?

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

and the withdrawal was a not fail

it was for health reasons i had to get my appendix removed lol

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

i have used chatgpt

yeah then you're not in an awful place

you'll be good

thank you for the positivity

my worst fear is getting rejected from every school

apply to 1 youre overqualified for then

always have a safety

a reach and target school...

i do im just tryna stay in the NY/NJ/PA metro area

my pre-law advisor is a nincompoop and was useless thruout this process

saturated but possible

you dont need him there are more efficient ways of compling data to understandable information

for context, she told me not to negotiate with law schools for prices.

just so u understand where i am coming from here lol

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

negiotating is a prime skill lawyers need to have idk what she on about...

exactly lol

i was telling my friend that her rhetoric was lowkey predatory and dangerous

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

how many schools should one apply to

i can post my list

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

im applying to at least 7 taking lsat tomorrow and another in in october

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

Brooklyn Law School City University of New York School of Law Benjamin N. 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

im taking lsat tomorrow as well

im attmepting to stay in california so for me reach schools--UCLA,USC,UCB. Target schools--UCI,SCU,USD,pepperdine,. safeties--chapman,southwestern

yessir love to hear it thats a solid list

im thinking of putting in apps for new england university

its a solid list but idk if i can get into any of them lmao

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

we got this my friend

and all the persoanl stateemnts for them are done

bro dont get me started on CAS + the application costs

its crazy

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!

the cas + application cost has my wallet crying

not tomorrow friday*

**** today is wednesday. now i'm sad.

even my urologist was like bro this shits a scam

ha. theres a pun there. sorta.

im taing it tomorrow

tricking myself into manifesting a 180

yes

tomorrow ima retake the pt i got a 180 on as a confidence boost

you got a what on a pt

wow

thats wild congratulations

mods I know the redesign is new

but it is so fucked up

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

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

@MightyUnableSphinx open a ticket and screenshot and send photos: v

https://lsd.law/feedback?status=open

any update for asu

currently on WL

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

@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?

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)

yeah, it depends a lot on individual people

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

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?

@ririri03 November/December is usually considered “on time”

wont help you but probably won’t hurt you either

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

@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

The median is 165, the 25th % is 158. I have a 162.

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

@LawCarrot fsu has a hardon for lsat so i would retake

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

Apparently people have gotten WL->A the day before classes start lol

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

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

Cyberpunk

where are you deposited?

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"

lsat day

ima make this test my *****

lsac better watch out

Good luck!

how is everyone

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 -_-

gotta crush that lsat

it is not impossible

@NosyBeagle what's crushing it? I'm between 160-165

john law school

RC-LR-RC-LR

Felt comparable to most PTs

second RC was a little hard, hoping it was experimental

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

Hope you got the score you wanted! The waiting after blooowwwwwws

@UnusedCulturedAxolotl well done. I'd shoot higher maybe 170's?

@TylerDurdenxTravisBicklexReader good job

ty 👉👈

who is still on a waitlist…

me

<------

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel

yup

i hope everything works out for you guys

what are my chances of getting into a school with a 3.94 gpa and 150 lsat

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

School starts on Monday and im still waitlisted... chat am I cooked?

how many schools are you waitlisted on

when people say john law school, do they mean atanta's john marshall law school

or st john's?

no they mean a school for john law

really niche field

they only handle law involving john

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

if you have a 154 you should retake

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.

just lock tf in bruh

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

whos gonna carry the boats?

I’m totally useless

Especially at these exams

But ur right

you can study the lsat when you are outside of the country, fun fact

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!

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

im so glad the middle eastern architecture/new science RC was experimental

**** had some weird questions

the simone weil/jazz/zebra mussels RC was probably harder but much more straightforward

which i prefer

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

Hold on.

Jajajajajajajajajajajajajaj

jajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

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

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

any asu updates

?

why did the gre data disappear?

does anyone know if gulc pt program is full or not?

adf

does anyone know if gulc pt program is full or not?

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

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

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

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

how's that look?

10000% better

Instantly a huge improvemen

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

did anyone else take the august lsat ?

and have that awful behavioral economics passage

@skinnyDarkMongoose We have similar stats, have you gotten in anywhere?

hey girlies

interface change???

Yeah wait, this interface is wild

The old one was pretty solid

Wait this fucking sucks lol

@CrackedLowGPA can you give me usome feedback on what can be improved?

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

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

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.

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

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

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

Please just revert it

Please share one thing that annoys you so that I can fix it

Man, people suck.

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.

you know i was kinda digging the red

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

makes sense, human psychology go brrrrrr

anyone else still on waitlists and hunting for any info on here lol

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

youd have to find housing in like a week

and youd get 0 scholarship

might be better to just r&r and work for a year

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

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?

WE*

Should I apply being below both medians?

The last LSAT I took was the last lsat with games...

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

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"?

yeah basically

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

but then again, things might have looked different in a less competitive cycle
