2 months!

Nooooo, I'm not ready.

Ughhhhhhhh. I'm thinking more and more I'll take in Feb. I don't want to, but I'm terrified I won't be ready. Plus, if I wait til Feb I'll have $1500 to spend on a private tutor during Jan/Feb. (My work will pay $1500 annually for "tuition." This year I'm using it for my TM course).

I believe in you...

Wouldn't Feb be too late for the next round of applications (Enrolling Fall 2015)?

Don't feel too pressured guys, it's just a standard exam. Others have done it, so can we. Besides, the stuff we learned in bits & pieces will fall into place and make a lot of sense, just stay focused.

I'm so torn between law school and investment banking.

[LSATdreaming]

Which problem do you have a question about, LSATdreaming?

No question in particular. I just noticed that people were talking about taking tests in the 40s and didn't know if they would be able to talk about questions from that test in this thread.

Also, as the OP or whatever, do you wield any power over this thread Dirigo?

Not necessarily. You might miss out on some scholarship money, and enrolling earlier is better than later, but you could still get in. I know I'm planning on retaking in February if necessary and applying late this cycle. I really want in on this cycle.

If the LSAT doesn't work out, I'm applying to the Edward Jones Trainee position. I have a few friends that can get me in.

I thought the consensus on TLS is that it's extremely difficult to become an investment banking associate out of law school.

[LSATdreaming]

It's law school or bust for this dude. I really want in on this cycle too. Everything is perfect. LSAT test takers are down. Apps are down. I feel like people will start catching on and next year everything will be back up. I want it this cycle!!! 168 or bust.

Honestly if you have an ibank job and are making good money, I'd stick with that.

Dreamers are going to dream

lmao, i know! I think that if you want to do both, then do both. A law degree wont hurt if you decide to pursue investment banking, it can only help in my opinion.
