Advice - October or December LSAT
Posted: Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:10 pm
Hello,
Background information: uGPA of 4.0 entering my final year (semester) of undergraduate.
So I have a slight quandary that I hope that all of you may be able to assist me with. Right now, I have been studying for the LSAT for about a month or so, and I am not finding that I am where I should be, and I am heavily considering postponing my LSAT test date for December. The reasoning that follows this decision is that I realized that I went about studying the wrong way (studying 5+ hours a day/7 days a week, which fried my brain to the extent, I wasn't able to study effectively, poor scheduling, and so on.). I feel that I will be able to do better if I restart and aim for a December LSAT test date, which I've been told is totally fine (doesn't hurt admissions/scholarship chances at T14 law schools). Can anyone confirm if this is true?
In short, I'm asking if it is a wise decision to essentially start all over and study fresh and aim for a December LSAT. I'm just worried it will hurt my admissions/scholarship chances. Either way, what do you think? Appreciate any advice in advance!
