Anyway, my question to all of you good folk is this: I plan on volunteering with the Peace Corps post-graduation--am currently entering my senior year in undergrad. It's been a dream of mine for ages & I'm in the application process right now. Ideally, I would like to study for the LSAT next summer after I graduate, before I leave the country..I find I do best on tests when I have a prolonged period of time to work full-time on them. I have done some research on the forums and it seems that the LSAC keeps your score for 5 years, but many schools ideally would want it within 3. I'm not sure if this 3 years is 3 years before application date, or 3 years before matriculation date--any clarifications would be great!
This is the tentative timeline that I have planned out..please let me know if you see any flaws/would make any changes to this. Much thanks!
May 2013: Graduate

May-October 2013: Study hard!
October 2013: LSAT
November-December 2013 (ideally): Leave for the PC
+ 2 years, 3 months..
February-March 2016: Return from PC
March-October 2016: Work on personal statements, application, re-acclimatize to the US
October 2016: Apply for law school
Fall 2017: Matriculate
As you can see, this leaves a bit of wiggle room for my PC leaving date (I can leave as late as March 2014 and be back by June 2016, in time to work on applications). And it would be exactly 3 years from the October 2013 LSAT to the October 2016 application (I will get it in that early considering the amount of time I'll have to prepare). It would be 4 years from LSAT to matriculation, though. Is this acceptable & if not, which law schools do you guys know of that are the exceptions?
Thank you!
PS: Any (potential) Peace Corps Volunteers or RPCVs here?
