I’ve just decided that my last blog post comes off as incredibly whiny and a little bit selfish. “Wah, everybody cry for me because my life is over because I probably won’t get into Harvard Law School.” It’s like the skinny, blonde homecoming queen complaining because she got a pimple. Somebody tell that bitch to get over<\/i> it.<\/p>\n
I had this idea in my head that I was going to totally ace the LSAT and then I was going to get into Harvard and then I was going to graduate and be the “poor” kind of lawyer and do good things for people and Harvard was going to pay back my loans for me because, hey, they’re Harvard and they can do things like that. I’d happily go to a lower ranked law school if they had the money to forgive my student loans if I don’t get a job that pays a ton of money.<\/p>\n
The fact of the matter is, if I only want to go to law school when it’s free, I probably have no business being a lawyer.<\/p>\n
I am also aware of the fact that a lot of people would kill to get a 162 on the LSATs without having to take an LSAT class. My percentile rank for the LSATs was 86. That’s not exactly a score to sneeze at. If my biggest complaint these days is that I got a 162 and not a 172 on the LSATs, I should consider myself to be extremely grateful. <\/p>\n
Besides, even the “poor” kind of lawyer will eventually be able to pay off her loans. Even without a loan forgiveness program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
