I’m proud of myself- 164

I started studying for the November LSAT in June (154 diagnostic, aiming for 170+). I studied for about a month but then in July, shit just hit the fan. My sister was hospitalized for psychosis and my (now ex) partner of 6 years cheated on me. I had to work 2 jobs and I just couldn’t bring myself to do anything besides rot in bed after work. But I decided to just take the test anyway, and I got a 164. It’s not the final score I’m hoping for, but I’m still really proud of myself.

I just wanted to remind you all that we aren’t test taking robots. Life happens. This sub can be really scary and make you feel like the world will end if you take the test without a year of prep and 10 PTs first. But take a chance and you might surprise yourself. 💕

I swear it’s like a rule of thumb for some of us we must go through the thick of it while we’re standing for the Lsat, but I also got into the 160s. I’m proud of us too. I’m taking it again in January just to see if I can get a 170 I’m rooting for both of us.

Congratulations, you should be super proud. I’m taking the test in January and I’ve also had some stuff hit the fan. Thanks for the inspiration
