LSAT scores.. and improvement

[OtterXO]

Okay I'll answer these as much as I can!

1. What did you get on the LSAT?
161
2. Did you take a course? why/why not? if so, which course?
Yes, Kaplan...probably because I had no idea what the LSAT looked like so I felt it was probably necessary
3. How much did your score improve from when you started studying?
well, my diagnostics during the course ranged from a 155 at the beginning to a 167. Of course my actual score was almost exactly in the middle of the range
4. What was your appx GPA in college?
3.5
5. What schools did you apply to? What was your top choice?
USD, LMU, USC, UC Hastings, Pepperdine
6. Where did you get accepted?
All but USC
7. Where do/did you go and what made you choose that school?
I chose USD mainly because I already had a life in San Diego and the school's rankings have been climbing every year.
8. What did you find hardest about the application process?
Waiting for the acceptance letters!!! Actually probably the hardest thing is writing your personal statement
9. What advice do you have for someone about to start this process?
Seriously think about whether or not you want to go to law school. It is a HUGE financial commitment and a lot of people don't like it once they start but they feel like they have to finish because they've already invested money into it...just some things to think about!
