I feel like a good troll is more subtle than this. Plz try again another time.

Not a troll, just desperate for advice because I am sadly lacking in inspiration. By the way, I don't meet my own qualifications, so I admit they are arbitrary. Ignore them.

If you're "desperate for advice", then listen to the advice you've been given.

Absolutely! Gotta go to law school though. I can't go back to working as a paralegal. I hated it. Even if I have to drop out after 1L year, I'll still have learned a lot. Most importantly, I'll have learned whether law school is for me or not.

I'll give you some information to work with:

Speech impediment from childhood.

Home Schooled (yes, =unsocialized)

BA in History with 4.0 GPA + post-bacc Paralegal Certification and paralegal experience

Strong sense of justice, strong desire to challenge ANY improper authority. Strong desire to help people and make the world a better place.

This is all real, no BS, no trolling. Sorry if I offended anyone with my snarky comments. Anyone like movies? I do.

Do you have a lsat score yet?

Not yet. Taking the LSAT in June. I'm not scoring well on PTs, though.

Get the score first, you have a nice gpa if it translates well to the LSDAS scale - the PS won't matter if you don't have the numbers first.

It's like you're reading from a book of TLS cliches. Be better at this, it's funnier that way.

edit: since I know you're going to say you're not a troll I will say this, if you're not - TCR is to seriously not go to LS. Or just don't go for a long time.

I'm not going to be spending much time on the PS. I know it doesn't matter nearly as much as the LSAT. But it is required for me to complete my application, as I'm sure you know. So I just need to throw one together and get back to PTing for the LSAT.

Sorry; don't follow.

Holy fuck this is a bad idea.

Why are you stuck in this binary? Are you literally shackled to the desk where you work, with only law school deans holding the key? Is someone holding a gun to your head, threatening to shoot you if you apply for one of the myriad other jobs available to you?

If you don't like your job and you don't want to go to law school, then find something else to do. You don't have to go to law school, and you absolutely shouldn't if you don't think you want to be a lawyer (which is what you indicated in your first post). Jesus.

I would change up your requirements a bit. T14 is way too broad to be considered "elite"

Surely you wouldn't want advice from those peasants at UTTT or GeorgeTTTown.

It should definitely only be -

177+
3.95+
HYS only

I heard those kids are the only ones who are truly capable of editing a PS

Quick, Neal's standards are slipping! http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 8&t=277429

I don't understand why you need to do this now When you can keep practicing the lsat, take the test in June, get the score in July, not spend much time in July writing it and apply in august/September.

Username is such an obvious flame. Come on son.

Alright. That was a "whoever finds it first wins" setup. Good job. What's your advice?

1. He/she's not going to respond bc you are a troll, a jerk, and/or both.
2. He/she didn't find it first. I did.

Now that that is behind us...

I don't really want to go to law school, but I don't know what else to do. How do I pick a PS topic and sound enthusiastic?

Also, please let me know if you want to tear apart my PS. I'd appreciate it.

No one can manufacture interest/enthusiasm for you. Also you don't get to pick and choose feedback based on stupid qualifications when people are volunteering their time to help you. Come back when have figured out a reason other than "I don't know what else to do" and try again.
