URM 2013-2014 Cycle Thread Forum

[Mojosodope]

Ugh, jeal of both of you. I do have one recommender, and my transcripts. But my other two lors are lagging. One was from a department of the federal government so my timeline ended up all messed up and blaaaah. So I'll probably just end up using my one from an adviser of an org I'm in.

Honestly, probably whichever I get first.

ALSO AM I THE ONLY PERSON FREAKING. OUT. ABOUT SCORES MAYBE TOMORROW??? OR???????????

I honestly just want the damn score back, not really nervous because there is the possibility of Dec.

My issue is december would be my third retake for 2 years and I would have to sit out for 2 years if it doesnt go well. I dont really like that feeling. I think if Oct doesnt go well, I might sit out until June

And sit this cycle out?

[okaygo]

If Oct is bad I might just wait out a cycle.

[mandyjay11]

And sit this cycle out?

I mean I guess it wouldn't hurt to try right? Would it be a bad idea to sit it out?

[Mojosodope]

Yeah, I know the feeling. That's how I felt in June. But at this point I know for a fact that I'm not going to be retaking in December, since I walked out of October feeling like that's the best I could've possible done so it is what it is.

still, a sub 160 would be devastating.

I thought I did well too, so a sub 160 will cause me to hit the gin bottle pretty hard.

It's never a bad idea if you think you can improve.

I was just curious. What score are you aimin for

Yeah my sub 160 in June was like someone stabbed me in the chest, but i knew it was coming. I gave up during the reading comp section. This time I felt like okaygo, it was the best I could have done right now. So we will see tomorrow - Thursday.

I'm hoping for a 165, I can live with a 160-163, and will not be applying with a sub 160

literally said this to one of my friends less than a hour ago. Maybe will throw an app to UNC and W&M and Georgetown for shits and giggles with a 159.

WELL. I'll sleep a little more soundly tonight with that in mind. Right now I'm a 3.62/155 with standard/decent softs so I just need to cross the daggone lsat threshold.

Georgetown is literally my DREAM though.

U might be able to do a little more damage with a 159 with your GPA. But that doesn't matter cuz we missed about 5 questions total between the 3 of us

Oh yes... we are going to be 170s at Penn doing all kinda fun stuff in Philly!!

[okaygo]

Lololol Penn might be the only T-14 I have done literally 0 research on.

lol UPenn wasn't on my radar until this thread and now i'm looking into it... from what people have written on here, i don't think it will disappoint

[Dr.Zer0]

I feel so behind since I decided to retake in Dec instead of Oct, but it will payoff... or at least that's what I tell myself

[okaygo]

Ahhhh, now I'm going to have to start doing research. Right now I'm all about GULC or Duke. But I got to school really close to DC so I really want to stay in the area. What are you all's thoughts on GW? Anything?

Lol you're not behind! It'll all be worth it when you get that 170+!

Not even applying to GW, i have no desire to go there. I am not even sure what they have to offer as a school. Duke is my number 2 and gtown is number 3.

I'm from the DC area and I totally get wanting to stay there, but philly is legit 2 hours on the bus. Duke is waaayyy further.
