Sure, study abroad if it isn't going to cost you much money. It'd be a fun experience before law school at least.yesplease wrote:Thank you very much, I was also thinking of possibly studying abroad Spring 2013 but that may push my graduating until May 2014.

Depending on how much financial aid I get, that I may do it. I come from a low-economic background so it may not be possible. I could probably graduate next year without having to take extra classes but that would mean having to take the LSAT sooner and I'm just not sure I'm ready.tedalbany wrote:Sure, study abroad if it isn't going to cost you much money.

Apply for Fall because a lot of schools don't accept Spring applicants. I studied abroad and its definitely a rewarding experience, and an opportunity to practice the language and fill gaps in your resume. Just don't study in Europe where half the population speaks English. I think you will learn more in Latin America.yesplease wrote:Thank you very much, I was also thinking of possibly studying abroad Spring 2013 but that may push my graduating until May 2014.

I did a lot of dual credit junior and senior year of high school graduating with an Associates Degree, I had to apply to most schools as a high school senior regardless of how many credits I had (90 hours) because I hadn't technically gone to college after high school. That being said, I decided to go to a private university because I assumed they would take less credits/be more challenging leading me to stay in college longer but neither of those two things held out. Right now I have 123 credits hours. And I realized that the reason I wanted to graduate early and deviate from my original plan was because I currently hate the school I go to. I decided to transfer instead and double major at the other school (and if possible, study abroad!), meaning I'll graduate in May 2014.1776 wrote:If you're a freshmen in the fall, how are you graduating next fall?

I feel like I half-screwed myself over by taking so many dual-credit classes in high school and if I stay until May 2014 I could probably triple major (which sounds so ridiculous >.<) if I didn't study abroad.
I just feel kind of lost right now.
