is anyone online

am i cooked for t14 w my stats 3.69/170

really cant stomach taking this exam again but i will if i have to

highest pt was 178 and avg was 173

how in the hell are you guys getting >=167 ? Do yall use the demon

you really have to treat the lsat like a 9-5

The last LSAT I took was the last test with logic games. I scored a 162. Do yall think I should retake before applying for fall 26?

Would it be worth it?

whats ur gpa? which schools are u applying to?

I would love a 162 tbh lol

Its < 3.5...

Florida State is one of my top choices and its median is a 165

But I am in state

yeah you should retake

todays my first day pf restudying since the june exam

Nice, maybe ill take a PT this week of the new format and see how it goes. I could always submit apps early, and then submit a better score to a school right?

Have you taken the lsat with games?

i have. oct '23. bombed it

never hurts to retake ig

I got a 164 but my GPA sucks so I may retake but really don't want to

i took it with games twice in ‘22, I hated games so I did much better w/o them

I also hate games so i think ill do better in sept

my gpa is ass so i really have to nail this test

you got this

lock in you got this

ty i've been doing alot better

I ended up getting 3 points higher than my all-time highest PT

so proud of u

blind reviewing my lr section. I haven't been able to get more than 15/26

my brain likes to turn itself off when i need it

oof, sorry

try stimulants

ima be honest im not looking forward to getting back into this ****

i just wanted to get a 180 in June, is that too much to ask?

Highkey was like should i pop an addy or what

cus i know i can do it. i have a bachelors degree dude

i mean we all do but i never thought id get this far lmao

hey cuties

hey bad!

any asu updates?

hihi

withdrew from ASU

does that count as an update

Beagle how's studying going

how are u guys??? how was ur weekend?? <3

i'm good! good weekend minus stupid car things

bad were u there when i told the story about the deer and my car

NO

WHAT

ARE U OKAY

okay well

yes

i haven't been here in like a week or two

missing #lsdlawchat

a) i have the worst luck with cars b) i literally have had a flat tire every year since i've owned the car (2020) c) this spring a deer ran into my parked car, will try to include a pic d) i was parked in a garage and stuff fell out of the rafter and smashed my windshield, which means i will be installing the 4th windshield this car has had in 5yrs

https://imgur.com/a/deer-v-parked-car-rT37UZ0

that pic is my car covered in deer fur after the deer bodyslammed it

HOLY FAWK

i'm glad you're okay

"deer vs parked car" NAURRRR

yeah i'm fine just pissed and broke

the fact ur car was fucking parked is wild

FOR HOURS. HAD BEEN PARKED FOR HOURS.

you weren't even on the ROAD

if my bf's roomie hadn't witnessed it we would never have known

this is literally insane

did the deer just

leave after that

IT WAS FINE???

apparently. there was lots of fur shed but it was prob deshedding for summer. no blood spotted.

JESUS?

DID IT FALL FROM THE FUCKING SKY WTF

THATS WHAT IM SAYING

im trying to think of the logistics of this but i can't

genuinely struggling

anyway and then i parked my car in a garage this weekend, out yknow, fear of flying deer, and **** fell out of the rafters and smashed my windshield in two places

like i actually have bonafide miserable car luck

maybe it was crossing yards and jumped onto your car or something i am so confused like what

apparently the movement described by bf's roomie was that the deer ran into and did a "somersault" over my car

NOOOOOOO IM SO SORRY

fdjhfg??? HELLO??? is there coyotes in the area??? maybe it was running from a predator??? who the **** is this james bond of deer???

FILE A CLAIM THROUGH UR INSURANCE AND GET UR PAYOUT FROM THAT FUCKASS GARAGE

idk what they put in the water here

yeah i'm gonna. just. hhhhhh

i do not need more things to do in the next month

smh

the garage might be liability insurance

might have *

get ur money from them legend u shouldn't be paying out of pocket for that ****

yeah no. tis the plan. muchas annoying tho

what kind of john wick ass deer....im sorry and hoping ur free from these misfortunes soon < / 3

agreed

worst part. i had taken my car in to be serviced the day before. so it had just been in the shop

now i have to book another appt

OHHHH THE UNIVERSE NEEDS TO GIVE U A BREAK NOW

i think i need to move to a city where i don't need a car

bc this is my second car with unlimited problems

first car used to not turn off when i took they keys out :D

and that's tip of the iceberg lmfao

I am right there with you Jupiter, tis the moment for a car-free life

Boston should be pretty amendable for a car-free lfestyle, no? that'd be sick af

It is, thank goodness

Three serious car accidents already in my life, I feel like this is above average and it gives me so much anxiety

Two with teenage drivers (totaled my car), one hit-and-run when I was on foot. I cannot WAIT to be a train girly

How on earth did you work around the car that never turned off

luckily I was young and near my parents, but uh yeah. my papa was perpetually rocking up to my location with jump cables

it would run until it died

TRAIN FOR LIFE

also it was a piece of shet and no one ever thought to steal it, which makes me giggle

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan

I had a friend/crush in high school whose truck would only turn on

with key + screwdriver

But yours takes the cake, amazing

fart. anyway did YOU GET HIT BY A CAR? IS THAT WHAT THAT ONE MESSAGE MEANS

Yes lol guy got out and was like "my name is [???], I'm late to work, you can look me up in the phone book"

This was in college, good times. Love people.

And somehow you seem to have WORSE car luck than me. I am truly humbled

holy **** idk if I win. i've been hit twice not my fault, but inconsequential damage

was ur body okay????

@JupitersMoons blind reviewing a section rn

weekend was great. spend 2 days absolutely plastered.

body was, weirdly, okayish-- nothing broken, not even a scratch, just back trouble for a couple months that eventually disappeared bc, idk, youth?

despite having gone flying

@NosyBeagle dang you are so committed! respect

ty ty hope ur doing well. i dont think people can become birds

@NosyBeagle

god damn it man

keep up the good work is what i was going to say

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan

STOP WHY I CANNOT STOP

was just trying to say I'm glad to hear ur okay

sigh

lol

will do

weirdest injury I think I should've had more repercussions for: being bucked off a horse

I have asphalt still in my elbow and I'm almost sure I have a healed fracture that I never saw the doctor for

ahaha @JupitersMoons like I said, it's endearing

wow ok how old were you when horse-injured? are you a horse girl? I saw bullriding recently for the first time and I could not believe the throws/falls some of those guys stood up and walked away from

oh I have been thrown off the back of a steer! that just fucked my back up for like two weeks but we gucci

I was..... 14? when horse injured

theoretically horse girl. never did any comp riding, more like it was my childhood special interest

please tell me that some of these unique experiences featured in your law school essays

i have too many weird stories like this that's why i always wanted to be interviewed LOL

i was like booksmart horse girl. i can still tell you too much about the Triple Crown and used to be able to look at a horse and tell u breed and coat color

too broke to ride, but reading was always free(ish)

my favorite horse breed is (was?) a KWPN, gorgeous horses used for primarily English events

i've joked to family that i'm going into law to be able to afford my own horses

Im not trying to sound cringe but is starting law school at 28 bad

im 27 so i sure hope not

Same bestie

bday is in september wbu

i just had my bday in april

hbd @windyMagician

i already have a masters degree and am now going to law school so andrew tate thinks i should be shot basically

you didn't interview at all this cycle??

my fav interview was my vandy alum one

tbf that was my only real one

dean andy does not count

I feel like Dean Andy would've eaten up Jupiter's stories

for the intro round fun fact

rip dean andy you would have loved jupitersmoons

he did not like the fighter planes prepping for ww3 directly above my head i'll say that

his fault for telling everyone to unmute themselves imo...

yeah how is that your fault?!

i dont have many stories because i only started doing stuff like 2 years ago

i have stories bc things happen to me. i'm very boring in my day-to-day

im not committed to gulc enough bc i didn't rent a hotel room to do my interview in

Im gonna put my cat on my shoulder during and deny that she's there

Beagle, are you 2 years old? The ultimate superKJD wunderkind

i'm 1 and a half but my mom says im very mature

the kjd prodigy

baby lawyer

you're not committed to gulc enough bc you didn't sacrifice your cat

@badhorrormovie

the sequel to boss baby

CRYING

boss baby 2: baby lawyer

why is this not a movie yet put us in the writer room NOW

having to explain to my friends this weekend that law school rankings are not reflective of undergrad rankings

thanks to me my bf knows all the law school lore. he knows t14 and everything

what other bizarre jupiter lore am i retaining

@windyMagician nooo gulc will reject me if i don't sign my soul over to them and sacrifice my first born child

my dog got stolen by neighbors for 3 months

i had a compulsive liar friend who faked cancer, a domestically abusive partner, and anorexia (in that order)

what

WHAT

@windyMagician me having to explain that byu is ranked higher than one would expecr

jupiter this is why u got into notre dame (besides ur hard work) u deserve a big win

see i always find these instances as lore building

i’ve started doing things for the plot

i had court ordered therapy when i was probably three or four and i had almost graduated when my therapist died, so they made me do it again (i barely remember this but find the irony comical now)

DEAR LORD

i hope u continue to get wins

and heal

ty bestie i promise all of these are just good stories now

no more trauma only funnies

ur personal statement probably went hard (im so sorry again for everything u went through)

((please don’t be sorry this wasn’t a trauma dump i’m genuinely so fine and all of these are so bizarre that they’re funny now))

`

(((also my personal statement had nothing to do with any of these these were just sidequests)))

oop im cleaning my keyboard mb

dead

SIDEQUESTS??????????????

real

me treating traumatic experiences as sidequests because my main journey is beautiful and wonderful heart emoji

everyone told me my personal statement was good but i think they were lying

babybel cheese is so fucking delicious

too salty

i bet u money it's a good personal statement

go to jail

WOAH??????????

NTM ON BABYBEL

it is prob fine i keep trying to compare myself to others and im afraid my insecurities have legit given my brain damage

holyyyyyy Jupiter, that's a lot of life

comparison is the thief of joy

^ what bad said

and i live by that

<3

agreed with @badhorrormovie that you getting into NDLS is hard work/brilliance *and* the universe being like "hey Jupiter, sorry for all those times I was toxic"

positives to come out of life stuff: when my dog got stolen by my neighbor we ended up adopting another dog (we thought she was our dog but she wasn’t and she was gonna be put down so we saved her) and she was the best companion ever

imagine if jupiter was the literal planet

this is my head canon

HELLO

why can't i search users anymore

i need to see how my june princesses did

go to schools they applied to and keyword search for them in the applicants table

(annoying but it's a workaround)

thank u i heart u so much

xoxo

now i have to remember where they applied.....

yeah and it's no help if they didn't apply/didn't update that :/

cue cryptanon telling us to fill out the feedback form

@cryptanon pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls i'll fill out a form too but pls pls

hey bad where are/are you going? ur profile is blank and i don’t know if i heard ur most recent update

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan i appreciate u nonetheless <3

i'm an r&r

< / 3

i used to have my story but the update nerfed it HAHAH

are you going to retake the lsat?

i have so much faith that good things r coming your way

yep!!! i got a 163 without studying so now im like okay what if i actually study

I HEART U JUPITER

i applied so late too i goofed myself < / 3

and so far? actually studying has been paying off (knock on wood)

yeah i was in late app boat too

but if u study and apply early i sincerely doubt that u won’t get some super favorable options

u best come join me at ndls next year

i would LOVE TO!!!!!

we can room and i’ll have even more crazy stories for u

i've been pt'ing 170s so i'm like pls let this happen on the retake

OMG ROOMIES

omg get into it

roomies because of lsd law would actually be so fun ,, i always worry about finding a roommate if i have to move

me too

y’all do not want to know the mess I have created by dipping from W&L

tldr; that lease I signed? prop mgmt company not stoked w me for breaking it

omg how late did nd get back to you with a decision???

like two weeks ago

late June

NO WAY

deposit due (and submitted) last Wed

was a gnarly turnaround and couple days for Jupiter

im glad u got in though

u missed some seismic breakdowns

despite the timeline being SHITE

yeah me too. they lowballed me on scholly but there is a nice long list of reasons why it made the most sense for me

A WIN FOR JUPITERMOONS

number 1 reason — South Bend had a Trader Joe’s bless tf up

nd alumni system is insane

like they will hook u up

that’s actually number one reason lol. that with the national reach for job markets… yuh

@badhorrormovie not that i’m any more informed, but this next cycle, if u need any advice or anything, my reddit is pretty much the same here (add 0108 at da end) and i will always offer a helping hand

first gen af over here and we gots to help each other

@badhorrormovie you scored 163 without studying at all? you're gonna KILL IT next time around

@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan this is what i'm saying

how do y'all think next cycle will be? less competitive or more

Registration for the August test is WAY up. That could just be people trying to get ducks in a row so that they can apply earlier, dunno.

people think it will be more competitive. I think the LSAT registrations are astronomically high

https://report.lsac.org/TestTakers.aspx

I don't think there will be more people applying overall, but there will be more early, and those might be better applications.

I don't think that one metric is enough to make a good guess either way

Basically, I think that high August number is mostly leftovers from failed applicants this cycle.

I saw people posting about it on reddit but its not conclusive

There's literally only one metric available right now. 😂 Applications aren't even open yet.

I think, on the contrary, there may be more apps bc I've seen a large trend of retaking and reapplying for this next cycle bc this past cycle was so competitive

election bump is on the way out. if economy does okay, that also trends toward fewer higher-ed applications. guess we'll wait and see

I agree the August LSAT reg numbers are likely just rollover from previous year, may signify an overall trend or just an anomaly

im wondering if it's becoming trendier to apply early

could be. definitely the smarter option

i think everyone should wait until I take the lsat 🥺

is there a seperate page for decisions regarding transfer applicants?

I don't think that's a thing on here since typically that process is based on 1L grades rather than uGPA and LSAT

any asu updates

hey guys! taking the lsat in February; little antsy. Any advice?

you got a **** ton of time, best advice is to make the lsat your *****

**** that **** up

slow stroke the lsats pussy til it creams

@Auburnkid22 I liked LSAT Lab. I had poor direction in my study, and their stats helped me focus on what was most effective for the final stretch. I raised my score by 3 points in the one week I used the program. I aimed for a practice score 4 points higher than my target score and hit right on target.

I actually raised my practice score by 8 points in that week, but felt ooky the day of the test, so the final outcome was 3 points higher than starting practice that week. I didn't retest because I'm not trying to get into a high ranking school.

There's a structure to the questions that you have to get used to, and there a bunch of tells that narrow the answers a lot.
