165/3.8mid/6+WE/Master's degree/CPA license/differentiating softs and lived experiences. Submitted my apps in December and January, but was on hold for the Feb LSAT.
Interested in investigating and prosecuting financial crimes or regulatory non-compliance, but also interested in Big Law as well. Federal work would be great when/if that becomes a viable option.
Emory gave me a scholarship for roughly half of tuition. I'm really grateful to have the opportunity to attend, but now I'm wondering if I really want to spend my 30s paying off a huge amount of debt (avoided student loans completely in my 20s lol). Plus, getting waitlisted by other schools like Georgetown and Vandy makes me want to take a final stab at the LSAT. (My last four attempts have all been roughly the same score and I haven't used a tutor yet. Maybe I can get it up a bit?) |

Of course, I would have a 178 if I took it today. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5712942&forum_id=2#48861117) |
