See, I think apps are stressful but waiting for my LSAT score was even more stressful, just because it determined whether I was going to go through with applying this cycle or not, whether or not I could quit studying, etc.

Yes! Especially depending on when you take it. I wish I had enough time to study to sit in for June, and then retake in Sept. December retake always places one in a trickier position. For me, at least.

Hillz that's so inspiring! That's exactly what I did - I focused less on PTs and did a TON of drilling. I'm pretty sure the last game has shut out the possibility of a 174, but I'm hoping I made a decent improvement. The fact that this worked for you makes me a teeny tiny bit more hopeful.

For me, I'm either getting into one particular school or not going next year, so it seems worse, I guess.

No, that makes sense!

Mom just looked at my screen (aka, the TLS forums) and asked why the gifs were "moving." Dying right now.

Is that to inspire you or your significant others?

But have you sent in your sketches yet? Because I feel like that would be the dealmaker and you wouldn't have to worry anymore.

Nope, he's older - already graduated.

I've also expressed on several occasions that I plan on doing public interest law...

So, I already got an acceptance from Georgetown but re-took the LSATs to see if I can do better. If I don't do better, I may just settle for Georgetown. If I do better (aka 170-172) then I'll just apply next year. If I do slightly better, I'll retake in September and apply next year.

What do you guys think?

(Sorry I'm a lurker, yo.)
