For people with weird stories or borderline numbers it can be really useful
And the money isn't that much when you put it in the context of law school
Also Spivey will tell you if there's not really much he can do for you, he has a soul

Edit: I really need someone like Spivey, weird story plus no GPA, low LSAT (retaking in Dec)

I can't believe I just read all 77 pages of this in one sitting. Life is weird without the LSAT to study for anymore. I also managed to get a first and second draft of a PS done today while tabbing back and forth between this thread. Still needs quite a bit of work, but something is on paper!

Anyway, checking in. I at least feel this thread is much more useful than whatever the hell is happening in the waiter's thread!

I can and I will but personally I feel like I've invested too much into this law school process to not take the extra step of making sure that my app is 100%. I am just considering it though because I am currently financially disabled and would have to cross high and low waters to find the money :oops:

I hope waiting for decisions is not as bad as waiting for LORs. It's been 5 weeks :|.

It pens every year, no worries. We are a good group of people, though.
