Three solid days of -0/-1 LGs and I go -2/-3 on multiple sections.

Here I go forgetting inferences I just wrote down.

Maybe its time to focus more on sleep and less on drilling.

HAHA my advisor takes the trophy.

I swear to god he told me this "I took the LSAT (which he didn't... he went to law school in the 70's before the LSAT even existed) and studied 2 hours a day for 6 days a week. I began January 31 and ended on February 28th. I managed to get a 166 and ended up going to UA-Little Rock School of Law and here I am."

Then proceeded to say

"We had a girl here get a pretty good score (i set the record for our school's LSAT already, and second place was a 157) and she ended up going to thomas cooley School of Law in MIchigan and now I believe she's working somewhere in Tampa Florida. She told me she enjoyed her experience."

Swear. Couldn't make that up. He seriously mentioned Cooley.

I looked up Cooley because I realized that I don't actually know why it has the TTTTTTTT status it has on TLS, and Jesus Christ, a 22% employment score on LST. That shit should not be legal.

They're super TTTTTT because they publish their own ranking, in which they place themselves as the #2 law school in the nation. Second to Harvard. How modest.

haha well I went out to shovel as a morning activity b4 a PT (at some point lol) and theres a bit more snow than it looked like from my window :p the wind got it all distorted so some places got it piled and some you can see the ground. Had to go help some chick who decided to drive home from work bc "it didn't look like there was a lot of snow so I thought Id be good" tho she did make it to the block fine... lucky for her there was a guy with a plow who cleared a lane down the block... wish I had a plow on my car, would totally go driving around right now.
did your school not already tell you it was canceled? that sucks, where you at?

At least you all have pre-law advisers. My schools "adviser" listed on LSAC hasn't done it in years. His replacement is on maternity leave November through March, and her replacement has no training or experience. Its a wonderful way of making sure ambitious graduates never speak well of their alma mater again.

I was told that students who got into top-tier programs were "happy little accidents."

Then again, it did force me to figure things out for myself.

Everyone I know just keeps telling me to take a full ride somewhere cause if I go to law school I'll get a good job no matter what and I'm just like, A top 60 full scholly won't give me the same oppurtunities as a top 30 school. .

Go to a top 46.

I honestly was seriously considering a schools full scholly simply for their innocence project, but I reaized the likeliness of me successfully interning there isn't that high and their job prospects scare me. i like the school and the clinic but the stats are making me run the other way.

ETA: I might be overthinking it, but I'm paranoid about having a job at graduation.
