The next stage: Lsat & Lawschool
The next big obstacle in my life will be getting into law school. It is commonly known in North America the level of competitiveness and getting into law school has become a market for consumerism with thousands of millions spent each year on LSAT prep tests and classes. I guess i would fall into one of the tens of thousands of students struggling to get into a good law school in North America. LSAT is known as the standardized test, along with GPA is probably the single most important component of one's chance in getting into law school. I will be writing mine this upcoming June. After 3 months of studying and endless past exams, i can barely say that i am satisfied with my current score. Why is it that one single test will determine our chance for the rest of our life ?
I often wonder if this big step i'm making is the right one. As I am about to graduate and embark the next stage of my life, I'm still wondering if the choices I'm making are the right choices that will stick by for the rest of my life. The pressure of getting into law school is probably one of the biggest challenges I've faced in my life. That being said, the law school i want to go to is University of Toronto. After doing countless hours of research, I found the Law/JD program at University of Toronto to be most suitable for my current situation. Growing up in toronto, and then coming to McGill for undergrad, I've realized the importance of being close to my family. Since where you practice law is somewhat limited to where you study law, I've decided that I would like to be near my family. I would also be able to save quite a bit of living cost as i will be able to live at home instead of renting a place off campus. Along with its excellent reputation and geographical advantages, i believe the law/JD program at University of Toronto would offer me the most rewarding graduate experience.
