Episode 13: Admissions Myth Busters

HEY FRIENDS!

Welcome back to another episode of The 8 Percent Club! We've missed you all so much, and we were so happy to bust some myths for episode 13!

THINGS WE MENTIONED:

MYTHS:

  • You need to have gone to a fancy school for undergrad to get into law school
  • Law schools average your LSAT scores
  • LSAT and GPA are all that matter on applications
  • You need a 165+ LSAT score to get scholarship $$$
  • You won’t get into a t-14 without work experience
  • You need to be pre-law / there’s a “best major” for law school
