Tis a shame. Could have done better if you listened to them.

lmao Man, I called my dad after getting my 96 percentile LSAT score and while we were talking he looked up one of those law school ranking lists and he's like, "Oh you should apply here, it's ranked 106, but I know this is a good school, it should be ranked like 20th" (Mind you, he is not a lawyer, did not even attend that school, and I can say pretty confidently knew nothing about the law school in question besides what he saw on that list five seconds ago). I said, "Yeah, I'm not doing that," but he kept persisting and got upset that I would not budge on the matter. Sometimes I wonder how my dad managed to get an M.D.

I convinced my friend who posted a status about studying for the LSAT to aim higher than the 153 she said she needed for the local TTT. She became a TLSer at heart and ended up retaking her 163 for a 168, got good T20 money, and ultimately went to vet school instead.

I like invented her, you know what I mean?

Why did she decide not to go? Or rather, why go from an interest in law to veterinary school?

Money didn't end up being right. Her interest was always with animals and animal law is kind of a unicorn thing so she made the right choice. She's doing pretty well I think. Meanwhile I'm here twiddling my thumbs still on the most roundabout law school journey.

A friend posted on Facebook that she was taking the LSAT soecifically so that she could attend Suffolk law school And wanted some study advice. I PM'd her with a link to TLS, offered some other study advice, then told her to focus on getting a great LSAT score so that she could consider other law schools with better job prospects.

A month later she posted something again about definitely going to Suffolk. Rip.

I have been lucky enough to have a couple of friends that have good grades/scores and are also blanketing the T-14, so I don't have to deal with stupid advice often. My mom is as neurotic as I am and also reads this board sometimes (hi mom) lol. She texts me every day asking if I've heard anything new.

That's really nice. I have one friend who is applying with me. I'm hoping he gets into a USC or UCLA. Everyone else I talked to knew nothing. Not even professors at my undergrad, that I talked to.

She is also a lawyer so it's a little less weird. She actually is an old school message board user. Back in the day there was a group of lawyers that got together on another message board that is much smaller than TLS. They are all good friends now and actually get together every year in real life.

Is it weird to bring a parent/parents to ASW?
