Congratulations on registering for the LSAT and best of luck in October. If I’m remembering correctly, I registered for the fee waiver (and appealed the denial) and was ultimately granted the fee waver after I had already registered for the LSAT. I didn’t press the issue at the time, but I don’t believe I got a refund or a credit for the LSAT registration, but I did get the free test prep materials and the credential assembly service was waved. I do recall, though, that if I had taken the LSAT a second time, that the fee waver would have been applied to that second test. Nevertheless, you should call LSAC and see what they say.

I hope that helps and best of luck!

Thank you for your very kind words! You’ve made my day! I enjoy writing and wish that I could spend more time free-writing as I get to do on this blog (as opposed to the strict rigors of law school and lawyerly writing). I am delighted when others appreciate what I have to share and would be very open to writing professionally once I’ve practiced a few years and feel I can speak on the topic with a little more authority. Because I feel so positively about law school and my experiences thus far, I also feel that I have a duty to counter some of the negativity that is so prevalent in today’s law school related blogs. I hope that I can provide just a little breathe of fresh air on the topic.

You should seriously consider compiling all these wonderful tidbits into one big book and call it something like:

I Wonder If the Sun’s Out Today:
Tips for Surviving Your First Year of Law School

Seriously though, you are a very good writer and a book of this type would help a lot of students cope with all the stressors of law school. Maybe sometime in the future you should consider publishing such a book. For now, though, I’m selfishly happy you’re giving these tips free here.

Good luck in your professional career.
