I knew in the summer of the “law school admissions cycle” that I was going to “take the LSAT and go to law school.”

I understood these as the basic steps of going to law school, but honestly, I didn’t know much more than that.

Now, if that sounds naïve to you, you’re right.

The purpose of the blog, docs, and LSData in general is to alleviate that imbalance and make information easily accessible.
