A 20-year-old woman from Pennsylvania has shared her real-life Legally Blonde moment after achieving the perfect score of 180 in the Law School Admission Test (LSAT).

"Before taking the LSAT, I was hoping for a good score and was anticipating a score in the 170s, but a 180 was above what I could've even dreamt," Sarah Boyle told Newsweek.

The LSAT, or Law School Admission Test, is a standardized exam used for admission to law schools. It consists of three sections including Reading Comprehension, Reasoning, and Logical Games.

With a score range between 120 and 180, a score of 160 is generally considered competitive for top-100 schools, and the average score for the LSAT is around 152. But for one of the top 14 law schools—like Stanford, Yale or Harvard—a score of 170 or higher is ideal.

Elle Woods, a fictional character portrayed by Reese Witherspoon in the movie Legally Blonde, is known for her remarkable LSAT score—179 out of 180.

Portrayed as a stereotypical "valley girl," she embarks on a journey to Harvard Law School in the movie that has since become a cult favorite.

"This score meant so much to me because it increases my chances of scholarships," Boyle explained.

Just 123 of more than 49,000 ABA applicants this year achieved a 180 score in the admission test, according to the Law School Admission Council.

Despite the perfect score, Boyle remains grounded, acknowledging that acceptance into law school depends on various factors beyond just test scores.

When it comes to her future, Boyle plans to graduate with her Master of Business Administration (MBA) in 2025 and attend law school in the same year.

Her ultimate goal is to obtain her CPA license and pursue a career as a corporate lawyer.

In a video on her TikTok page, @sarah.grace425, Boyle gained more than 1.4 million views revealing her score of 180—beating even Elle Woods.

Online, people were in awe of her achievement and shared thoughts in the comments.

Viewer Kirby said: "You did better than Elle Woods. Congrats bestie!" While Diane commented: "I would legit print my results letter on a shirt if I got 100% you should be SO proud girl."

Stephanie said: "I took the practice LSAT and couldn't even get through the first 10 questions."

While one viewer said that Boyle should wear a Legally Blonde-inspired outfit on her first day at law school: "Please please please!!!!!! Wear pink your first day of law school. For all of us Woods Girlies out here!"

Looking forward to the future, Boyle is thrilled with the response to her TikTok.

"I was so proud of myself and having others celebrate my accomplishment with me feels amazing," she said. "I also have always loved Legally Blonde so I feel honored to be compared to Elle Woods. Just like her, I want to show others that they can accomplish anything, no matter your circumstances. If you work hard enough, anything can be overcome."
