Planning for law school should start long before the application process begins. Long before applying to law school, law-interested students should begin making sure they understand the cost of law school and how to plan for it, what experiences will be most beneficial to them in a prospective law student, and what they should be doing each year of their undergraduate education to help set them up for later success. Additionally, it is important to consider both the LSAT preparation timeline and the law school application timeline.
