Re: how hard is the LSAT?
(this probably should get moved to 'the dorm')
You have to take a LSAT class. It will help emmensely.
I think taking the test in Feb will be a mistake unless you want to commit yourself to test prep as a full time job for the next month.
I have several schoolmates who have taken the test. All are brilliant. They all studied for the test and their scores ranged from 160-179 but it was not easy. Everyone except for the guy with the 179 said that the test prep classes improved their score by up to 10 points.
A lot of very smart kids with great grades got 165s and eliminated their chance of getting into a top flight school.
Look at the test ranges for the schools that you might want to apply to. If you want to go to a top school it is worthwhile to put off your test and bust your balls with test prep and try to get a 170.
Good luck,
Steve
