I don't understand the uncalled for cut down. I work for a group of lawyers, some who graduated from GW, some who graduated from UF, and some from Stetson, all doing equally well (which is very well).IAFG wrote:you're right, you're actually obviously too retarded to do better next time. enjoydarby girl wrote:maybe for you, but not for me.IAFG wrote:after you retake, apply to all the schools you like plus their peers to try to leverage scholarship money. a little money towards app fees will seem trivial if you get even $10k extra in scholarship money at you want to attend.

2) This small sample is representative

The sample I was using (small as it may be) still proves that someone who goes to a school that accepts 163 LSAT scores does not mean they will be working at an elementary school.rad law wrote:

Re: how many applications is too many??
If you have the funds to do so, apply to every school you'd even pause to think about.
Remember there are a lot of people who have to narrow their budget and limit themselves. If that doesn't describe you, apply early and often so you can prepare for the unforeseen (ie rejections at every "consider").
The vitriol in here is amusing.

Re: how many applications is too many??
Darby,
I have a budget--so I am keeping an eye on my apps with my budget in mind. Keep the bottom line in focus (for example, 13 schools is over 800 bucks). How much are you willing to spend to get rejected? That's how I sort out if I really want to apply for that reach or not.
And you don't have to retake if you don't want. You're on TLS, so folks here get upset if they aren't around 170. If you're happy with 163, run with it.

You have applied to too many schools once you have applications to schools you would not actually go to and/or have no chance of getting into.

I only applied to schools I actually would attend if accepted. I also removed any schools from my list that I considered to be a waste of money (my numbers were below both 25%).rad law wrote:lol wuteandy wrote:You have applied to too many schools once you have applications to schools you would not actually go to and/or have no chance of getting into.

Good point. In my case, all of the schools I applied to were peers, so I didn't think of that.IAFG wrote:applicants should also apply to all their target schools' peers.eandy wrote:I only applied to schools I actually would attend if accepted.
