I am looking at law schools right now, particularly in the south (UVA, Vandy, Emory, William and Mary)-- high hopes, I know. I've read what their websites and brochures say about grades and LSAT scores, but anyone have actual experience with applying to these schools? Any advice?

I waited 4 years between undergrad and law school. I wasn't in a position financially to go right after college, and the four years allowed me to be able to afford it. I'm in an evening program, but I'll still graduate before my 30th birthday, which was my goal.

As to those schools, I have no experience, but I know they're all great schools. The only Southern school I applied to was George Mason, the rest were Northern schools or in DC. Good luck.
