Mention LSAT score in career progression essay [#permalink] New post 09 Jan 2013, 14:58
Hi,

I took the LSAT in 2009 (I graduated in late 2007). I scored well (168) 96% and there is a small gap in my career history (6 months) when I took the test.

My question: Should I just skip over that period in my career progression essays?

Does mentioning my lsat score make me seem unfocused as far as career planning goes? (I did not attend law school).

What do you think?

Thanks!

Based on the information you present here, I would not mention it at all.

I wouldn't mention it. I did not mention my (similar percentile) MCAT score or USMLE scores and attended medical school. However, maybe I should've mentioned it and it would've gotten me in places :P But, yes, it may make you look a bit disjointed in explicitly marking a number.

Some schools' forms have a place where you can enter other standardized test scores also.
