From what I’ve read on this forum in the past, Calgary places quite a bit of value on work experience. You’ll have to bump that LSAT up as well. When are you writing it?

Hey thanks for the reply. I am planning to rewrite it this week. I have part-time work experience but due to taking care of my siblings I have not been able to do full-time. is that valid or do I need to have full-time work experience? 

Also for fulltime w.e. is it valid to work as a fulltime at retail or fast-food chains or does it have to be with for e.g. city of calgary, or a firm?

I would say the fact that you’ve had to take care of siblings is a good enough reason as to why you don’t have FT work experience, and I’m sure if you explained that in your PS that they’d be understanding as well. Good luck on the LSAT.

L2 GPA: 3.6

LSAT: 160 (rewriting in Jan)

Very strong EC, research publications, and references

Would really appreciate your insight on chances! (Feeling kinda down after the Nov. LSAT). Thanks!
