Recommendation for the students:
- treat your studying like a class
- review material T/Tr for 1.5 hours (like a class) and do 1-2 hours of self study / practice problems (like homework) on those days
- this will keep you in an academic routine and also keep you from deferring things as “I’ll just study later”

This method was extremely helpful in keeping me on pace!

GRE:
- ETS free practice tests
- Magoosh free vocab words
- Kaplan self paced course (mainly for the practice tests and large question bank)

What was your experience with the LSAT? Do you think it's gatekeeping, preventing students who can't afford it (often people of color) from entering the field? OR is it helping future attorney's of color by giving them a chance to go to a top school regardless of grades? I've seen questions about the LSAT all day and just want to know how people feel.

I regret not applying to Harvard. I never thought I’d get into a top school and then got into wharton with a 100k fellowship - which changed my entire perspective. It sucks thinking “what if…”. I just didn’t have the confidence and thought wharton was a reach so why bother with H/S 🙃 hope this inspires someone to just shoot their shot - you never know
