Re: What are my chances? At 32 years old, Should I try to go to law-school. Please give me your honest feedback.
I'm a 36 year old 2L. My GPA in undergrad was substantially worse than yours (2.52). But I was able to rock the LSAT, and that's often enough to bring out some scholarship offers. I'm at Washington & Lee on a little over a 2/3 scholarship. If you've got the ability to get above a 170, you should se...

Re: Guide for Transferring to Another Law School
After a semester in as a transfer I can say I'm happy I made the move. I lucked out b/c I was able to move in w/ another law student that was a 1L at my current school so forming friendships was a bit easier for me than others have expressed ITT. But, it did take some time. Unfortunately, I did expe...

Echoing the above, and also check lsn to see how this cycle went for people with numbers similar to yours. A quick glance at UVA 2017/2018 applicants with similar stats: 3.27/167 -> WL 3.22/168 that was WL -> Rejected 3.22/175 -> WL 2.7/175 was accepted 3.21/171 was accepted as well. Best of luck! ...

Also happy to take questions though my experience is recent. This guide helped a lot. Transferred from a lower T2 (80-100 range) to a T25.

Re: Rising Senior, 3.43 - 3.57 GPA, 172 LSAT, Wait?
The point to wait is compelling, and I completely understand the contribution that WE can have on an application. I am leaning towards waiting a year after my undergrad, but I personally would like to go to law school as quick as possible. If i hit 175+ on my LSAT retake, I still do not believe tha...

Re: Outline Database
Anyone got a Louisiana contract law outline? Yes. Sadly I don't need it now, was trying to solve a problem at work and was getting stumped. But I'll take it just so I have a reference the next time I have to learn an entirely confusing legal system. Just PM me your e-mail and I'll send it over.

Re: Applying to Schools Merely for Scholarship Negotiation
If the school you got into views the other two schools as "peer schools" you may be able to.

Re: Financial Aid at Top School with Middle Class Parents
Thanks for all yalls responses! I only applied to YSH because I would kill myself if I didn’t get into one of the top 3. I also went to HYPSM for undergrad which means that anything less than YSH for law school is considered a failure in my circles. Sad but true. I guess I shouldn’t expect too much...
