Your Softs Won’t Save a 156 LSAT (Ep. 77)

A 3.6 GPA. A 156 LSAT. An Am Law 100 paralegal job, strong recommendations, and a compelling personal story.

Can the rest of the application make up for the numbers?

Ben’s answer: fix the LSAT.

This week, Ben explains why applicants get into trouble when they convince themselves they are the exception, why giving yourself more time can completely change your law school options, and why multiple LSAT attempts give you more chances to hit the top of your scoring range.

He also breaks down why prediction is one of the most important LSAT skills, reviews George Mason against Georgetown and George Washington on price and employment outcomes, reviews a listener personal statement, and answers mailbag questions about daily LSAT study volume and scholarships for splitters.
