You've disclosed enough to let us know you want to totally fuck yourself over/make a mistake you'll assuredly regret.

no. ive ONLY disclosed enough for people to give an admissions prediction. literally nothing further.

you dont know:
1) how many times ive taken the lsat
2) what kind of job im currently in, and how it relates to my JD aspirations.
3) what facet within business law i plan to pursue
4) my financial situation
5) my regional ties/ post graduate career prospects.

and you know none of this because it is immaterial to the question i've asked. again, you are a random 5,000 post avatar on an online forum. your career advice is of no interest to me - again, unless you have anecdotal insight into the law school admissions question that i've asked, then your entire existence is irrelevant as far as i am concerned. just sayin'.
You know, you might not want to be a dick to people who are actively trying to help you. You situation, is not that good. If you have money to kill, then you'd prob get a school in the 20-30 range, go and enjoy that. Or, you can fucking listen to people who are actually knowledgeable about the situation and are actually trying to help you, which I'm sure happens rarely in real life, if this is the persona you put forward on a daily basis.

you'll notice that i have not been a dick to ANYONE who has seemed genuine in their effort to help/respected the scope of the "help" i was soliciting.

Then what you don't get is that "seriously consider not going to law school, is legit advice that people were offering." Instead of just saying "thx, but i'm 100% committed to going to LS and won't be retaking" you became combative. Which was when people started trolling you.

not only was this advice unwanted, but it was entirely illegitimate. i intentionally did not provide sufficient information for a stranger to give me a fucking career management assessment lmao.

I tried to offer good advice, but now I think OP is trolling and just wants to increase his post count.

Anyone else getting that vibe?

OP, don't get angry at these people. They are legitimately trying to help you. I came across this user on the SA thread and was absolutely blown away by what TLS did for him or her. He/she retook a 168 and got admitted ED to UVA in two days. He's/she's a 3L now. http://lawschoolnumbers.com/North

So, congratulations North (even though I don't know you)! Thank you TLS for your sage advice! And stay chill, OP!

I know this thread was about your admissions chances but since I can tell that you really appreciate other information, let me give you some of your other chances:

Chances of being loved: 0
Chances of having friends: 0
Chances of anyone wanting to help you: 0

At this point, I think your best move is to retake life.

Lawyers should be more chill about this stuff.

I suggest that you do not go to law school.
Being a lawyer is, perhaps (outside of being a cop, judge or politician) one of the few professions where your hotheadedness can go without punishment.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
