Taking the LSAT beginning of Junior year. Forum

[dontrogerthat]

I have just recently had the idea of taking the LSAT on Sep 29 of this year, as a junior.
All I have going on this summer is working part-time with loads of free time, which I most likely won't have again until after undergrad. If I start studying when I get back from vacation I can have about 2.5 months of very solid study time. I was also thinking this might be optimal because this way I can focus on my school work and applications for the rest of undergrad instead of studying/worrying about the LSAT as well. I will also be able to apply to schools very early since I will already have my score back a year before I'm applying.

Is it odd for someone to take the Sept LSAT their junior year? Do you think I am just being silly?

I am a long time lurker, first time poster. I really appreciate all the advice that goes on around here and I hope someone has some for me.

No it is not odd, I think that it's a good idea to take pretty early so that you have plenty of time to see what schools you should apply to and to retake if needed. Don't force yourself to take in September if you aren't completely ready yet. You can take it in December or February and still be way ahead of the game.
