Much has occurred since the last time I posted in July. I moved back on campus, I am volunteering in Alpha Phi Omega Service Fraternity while trying to get ready for the LSAT in October (only two weeks away!). I am planning on attending Regent University but UVA or W&M would be nice too. There are some things I learned in the past few weeks about applying to law school:
1. Make sure you trim down your list of law schools you want to apply to (each school you apply to can see the other schools you are applying to, schools want to feel "special" :P).
2. Make sure you study for the lsat. I like to use kaplain.
3. The Law school process is expensive. I have already paid $307.00 and I haven't even paid the application fees yet.
4. Choose a law school in a state in which you could live in for a long time. Chances are that you will make all your connections while in law school and pass the bar in the same state.
5. Be realistic. If you are getting low scores on your pre-tests and unsure if you want to practice law and/or become a politician, don't get the degree. No one wants to waste $39,000 a year. Go to grad school.
