I GOT INTO LAW SCHOOL!..... AGAIN!!!

I was up studying till 4:30 am last night doing logic games, i went to bed
roughly around 5:30ish...(it takes me a hour or so to get out of test taking mode in order to get to sleep... otherwise i'll be up all night going over logic game setups and going over argumentative flaws)

Around 8:45 am, I hear a loud knock on my door. It was Aunt, she told me my father was on the phone. The last time he called was to tell me that University of Ottawa sent me a rejection letter.

I remember answering the phone and my dad said something like... "Are you awake? UBC sent you a letter"

Half asleep, I replied "...uh huh"

"You got IN to you UBC!" my dad said excitedly.

Not comprehending what he just said... I think i replied with, "cool... i'll think about it"

I was just about to hang up the phone... and it started to sink in... I get back on the phone and my dad, and he asks me... a bit confused "Which school are you gonna to?"

"err... UBC... " It starts to sink in a bit more "Holy Fuck, Dad.... I got INTO UBC!!" (no shit... i really did say that to my father)

My dad laughs and then congratulates me.

Not in a million years would I have imagined that I'd be able to get into a U of S, let along UBC. This time i know for sure that my GPA saved my ass. Finally, after 5 years of busting my ass 24/7, countless all nighters, and hundreds of hours of studying... it actually paid off. I was beginning to think that hard work was all for not.

Here's some stats about UBC and other law schools for comparisions sakes. The following provides the avg GPA and lsat score of the last years accepted applicants. FYI... A 160 LSAT score is 80th percentile, 163 is 90th, and a 170 99th.
