Depressed.
I scored a 155 in December of 2013.
Just got my score back from September 2014 and I scored a 154.
My GPA is 3.149 from DePaul University in Chicago. I turn 24 in August of 2015. I feel lost.
Should I apply? Retake? Kill myself?

Re: Depressed.
You're probably awesome at a lot of things higher scorers suck at. Go do those things.

Yeah I know how that feels. I got a 154 before and I was kinda mad about it.

Re: Depressed.
I'm so sorry, OP. You are still young! You should take a week to just relax and refresh. Seriously, just chill. Do whatever you want. Clear your head.
Then, if you are sure that law school is what you want, you need to realistically assess how much studying you were doing, and if it possible for you to pull your score up at least another ten points.
ETA: In the meantime, please try not to beat yourself up too much. You have every right to feel miserable and upset and disappointed, but don't be too hard on yourself. We all stumble. It sucks, but you pick yourself up and make the most of whatever it is you have.

Re: Depressed.
Get a job/keep working your current job and study your LSAT practice test score is consistently 170+. Otherwise, law school probably isn't worth it with your GPA.
DO NOT GO TO LAW SCHOOL WITH THOSE NUMBERS.
