Just study hard and have a strong mindset and a clear vision. Im almost sure that those who make it into law school wont be any smarter than you academically since were all ubc students. I think the main thing that separates those who can do it and cant do it is the mindset and the mental focus and discipline that will let u reach that goal. I truly believe that hardwork more than compensates for a slightly lower IQ or aptitude. This might sound stupid but in an information processing theory, those that are willing to put effort and dedication into learning things gain the most expertise in an area, and that will also unconsciously lead to a better ability to encode more information and better analytical skills leading to higher academic achievement. Its just like working out.. The more you exercise your brain, the more neural activation established and the quicker and more efficient the learning process becomes... In short, i say go for the LSAT because u can do it for sure
