My story...
Posted: Thu Mar 25, 2010 1:18 am
I graduated from a large Florida University 6 months ago, god it feels like its been so much longer. I had a 3.47 gpa and scored a 157 on the LSAT. I was pretty depressed with my score but you got to move on. I moved to China a couple weeks after graduating and have been here since working in a Chinese University as a English teacher even though my students are just 1-2 years younger than me (I just turned 23).
I'll be honest, I never felt like law school was my calling mainly because I had a pretty big fear of speaking. Unfortunately my professors challenged me academically but never pushed us to do public speaking. It was my problem, I should have forced myself into public speaking more. I have done quiet a bit of public speaking now and I feel much more comfortable with it.
So I'm in China, studying Mandarin and enjoying life here. However my entire time here feels like a vacation. The job is easy, and I have too much free time on my hands. I had good study habits before I moved to China but I feel like I wasted the last 6 months. I think I'm going to start studying for the LSAT again.
