I've applied to 19 (remote) internships and part-times, have gotten close to getting 84% of them and still being rejected. I don't feel bad, I know there are a lot of good, qualified applicants out there. I just want to get an idea of what else I could do now that I don't have any classes. I don't want to be unproductive.

How can I become a lawyer? I already took the LSAT and got a 164 and submitted an application essay, but I applied for the CAS which did not send my transcripts to the appropriate schools I applied to, so I did not get in.
