Re: Is it still necessary to apply early in the cycle?
It's best to get your apps in before Thanksgiving. But it's always better to apply with a higher Dec LSAT than applying early fall.chalky wrote:With LSAT takers and LS applications down, just wondering if that pushes the cycle back.
I'm taking the LSAT tomorrow but if for some reason I need to retake in December, would that affect scholarship offers? Or am I good as long as apps are in before the first of the year?

Re: Is it still necessary to apply early in the cycle?
i think with lower application rates, the idea of applying early is becoming less important. It's probably more important as you climb up the ladder into the higher-ranked schools T14 etc, but generally speaking, i think admission decisions are generally coming later in the cycle, since schools in today's legal world are having trouble filling slots.

Less important, sure, but it's still not a bad thing to do. Applying earlier is always better.

I would say you should always apply early, no later than November. Even if you are taking the LSAT in December, apply early

Well no shit, assuming you have been studying the last four, or three strong years of your life, scratch that, *academic career*benwyatt wrote:This is flat out wrong.HxAxDxExS wrote:I would say you should always apply early, no later than November.

Applying later with a higher score is always better than applying early.
Update: sorry, I forgot I took out the last part of my original post, and I didn't realize how detrimental it was to me stating my idea lol!
originally I said apply early and update. Anyway, send in your new score and even send in an addendum if you absolutely have to

Is there a disadvantage in applying in December as to applying early (Nov) and update in December?

Thanks. I'll stay away from applying without the Dec score.
