Need some Help

Post by jonnyboy1 » Sat Jul 28, 2012 8:45 pm

Hey everyone so I'm new to TLS and just wanted some advice coming in. Dont know if this is the best place to ask this but I went to a T20 undergrad and have a 4.03 gpa. Studying like hell for the LSAT in oct. for the last two months but cant get higher than 166 on my diags. I have great softs and have been working for my local DA's office for the past 2 years. Is it possible to get into a top 5 or even top 10 with those scores? I just keep hearing next year classes sizes are going to be smaller and its going to be much more difficult than this years cycle. any advice on all this?

For the top 5 you'll def need to break the 170 mark to have a shot unless you're a URM.

Also, check out lawschoolpredictor.com and lawschoolnumbers to get a better idea.

what are these great softs of which you speak of? I ask because most people overestimate how good their softs are

Where is this from? Because I find it hard to believe.

2. I just keep hearing next year classes sizes are going to be smaller and its going to be much more difficult than this years cycle.
3. any advice on all this?
1. Possible, but EXTREAMELY unlikely. http://myLSN.info/dispresults.php?sk=5g6ni
2. Not necessarily. Infact, most are predicting an easier cycle due to the app drop off.
3. Play with this: http://mylsn.info/ and study your ass off.
