Law School success
#1
I thought I should write one last time to encourage anyone who hopes to go to law school after one of the Big 3. I graduated from TESC with my degree in history, and I am about to start law school on a full scholarship. I was awarded a full scholarship from three places--a top 20 school, a top 30 school, and one ranked around 60, which is actually the one I chose for several reasons. I'm pretty young too, so at times I wondered if it would all work out. But it has. This forum was of enormous help and encouragement to me as I worked through my degree. Thank you all so much for your help.

That's awesome news. Did you have an awesome GMAT score or anything else that may have contributed to this? I am considering this as a possible option down the road and would like to be prepared for what to expect.

I'm sure the OP had to take the LSAT.

I took the LSAT and did well. From everything I've read, the most important factors in getting a law school scholarship are your GPA and your LSAT score. So, I concentrated on those.
