LSAC LS Forums, worth it if you already have a school list?

Post by RCSOB657 » Mon Nov 03, 2014 8:57 pm

To explain, is attending one of the regional LS Forums worth going to if someone already has a general list of schools they intend to apply to and already have need based fee waivers? I've done a bunch of research, and realize that these Forums were more used in the past because it was easier to disseminate information in that centralized manner. I would have to skip a class I couldn't afford to do so and spend plenty of cash in gas to get there and back (~250 miles round trip). I'm leaning towards not going, but is there something I would miss if I do not go?

Don't go. You won't miss anything. The majority of people I had to wait in line behind were asking questions you could find on the website. And none of reps could really answer my specific questions.

Nothing really worthwhile. Rather annoying to deal with inexperienced law school noobs.

The only reason to go is if you get some fee waivers that you don't already have for schools that will be attending the forum--I got several this way

Thanks, kind of confirmed my feelings. I need LSR waivers, but they don't give those out. I'll spend that gas money on more of those. :D
