    I'm considering the law school route as well, although I just finished my first year in college, and at this point am leaving my options opened

    Well took another practice test and scored a 164, 90th percentile. The key seems to be practicing the logic problems over and over and over until they get easier. May just keep doing this and skip the classes and save myself some cassius clay. What do ya'll think?

    I had a 3.1 GPA in Accounting and a 164 on the LSAT.

    I went to U of H law.

    I represent debtors in consumer bankruptcy.

    A word of caution. You will have to research regardless of your practice area. Don't pidgeonhole yourself into being strictly the library guy. You'll never get ahead that way or fulfill the potential of your legal skills. Research is one part of a multifacted profession.

    Best of luck to you.

    Nice improvement :) You seem like someone that can study on their own. Since the class costs 1K it may not be worthwhile to you. One other bit of advice is to sudy actual past lsat's rather than the ones written for Kaplan or PR by professors. I would also suggest trying to get to most recent tests available since they are closer to what you will be takin. Try lsac.org for tests newer than 2000 or so.
