I did want to mention that LMU isn't a bad school at all, in fact I know several successful lawyers that graduated from there. BUT, at sticker? No way. Has nothing to do with PT or FT, it's all about debt. I actually have LMU near the top of my list as well, but only at a full ride. I'm in LA too and Pepperdine and LMU offers at full boat is my objective, which means if I'm getting those numbers I should also get UCLA at sticker, which I will also turn down (I'm old and have no interest in big law). What I'm saying is, what you are about to hear a million times over in here. Retake, retake, retake.

Get the LSAT numbers you want so you can go where you want with some scholarship $.

We gave you great advice here.

OP, seriously. Stop trying to validate these decisions. They are objectively NOT good ones no matter what we say. The best thing to do would be to retake and get a much better school or a much better scholarship. If you are unable to retake that is one thing. Simply don't go. If you are unWILLING to retake that's another; you will probably hate being a lawyer. Many lawyers say that the LSAT is child's play in comparison to what they do for a living.

Hahaha, I'll take a chill pill. I do agree with a lot of what has been said. But since we are talking about the rest of my life and my family's lives, I hope you understand why I'm stressing out.

Thanks for the feedback. :D :mrgreen:

No stress necessary. Just don't go. Problem solved.

I don't really get the double post thing. Were you hoping that this time a different group of internet strangers would validate a poor choice?

I really don't think you're considering the right stuff if you want to give up a solid job to go to a crappy school and try to get job as a lawyer and you need the blessing of a bunch of strangers to do so. Again, innocent lives hang in the balance and are depending on you, time to put on the big boy pants and make an adult decision. Going to a school like Loyola at sticker would not only be a terrible decision (objectively speaking), it would also be frighteningly selfish. Please don't do it.

Oh absolutely, I get why you are stressed. However, your stress should not be arising from the CHOICE; it should be arising from the SITUATION. You have no good options - but you want there to be good options. That is why you are stressed. I totally respect your goals. However, understand that your goals of becoming a lawyer are frighteningly unrealistic with your LSAT score.

There is NO other way. You will have a good option if and ONLY IF you retake the LSAT. If you are talking about a UCLA/USC full ride then your goals become infinitely more realizable. I would take such an offer in a heartbeat. However, given your LSAT score, you will not get there.

Just retake. If this is something you REALLY want to do then don't let a 100 question multiple choice test stand in your way.

This sentence is pretty awesome and takes on a whole new meaning on April Fools.

There's a lot of competition for those jobs from TTTT graduates. A Loyola degree would distinguish OP.
