LSAT January & May Test scores accepted for scholarships. If taken both the tests, higher of the two scores considered.
Still, my parents managed to put me and my sibling (going to Amity - non-law) through college for those 5 years.
I had a substantial scholarship, so that helped immensely, also did not have to pay hostel fees for a couple of years because of COVID.
Trust me, no one considers you poor when at JGU and if they do, you're hanging out with the wrong crowd. Some people may be privileged to take it for granted or not comprehend how one does not have money to buy/ do something they can do on a whim. But mostly, people don't give 2 cents about background. I met plenty of humble people there and have good friends.
People do not generally engage in immature money d**k measuring contests and only those who do care who's poor and who's not. Because in the larger scheme of things, my family still forms part of the top 5-10% and yours in the top 1%.
