@geranttjrivera875 Congrats! We randomly selected you as the winner of the Edit Once giveaway! Email editors@pondola0661.com when you want to get started.
I would like a blog post regarding how students with graduate degrees approach the application process.
@davidbusis895 Sorry, I missed last night's webinar. Would you record it or could I have a chance to listen it again? Thanks!
Emphasis points of a non-academia recommendation. I.e focus on character or community service activities?
Would be awesome to see a blog post on people who have applied to law school later in life. Pros/Cons and just general thoughts
.
Thanks for hosting the webinar! Would love to see a blog on what to include and what to omit in a letter of recommendation from a non-academic source, especially for those who have been in the workforce for many years.
Thanks for that webinar! I'd love to see a blog post teaching us about scholarships and how we can negotiate them!
Thanks for hosting this webinar! Tip: Resumes don't have to be limited to 1 page (unless a school specifies that it does), but make sure that you actually need the second page.
Thanks for hosting the webinar!
Blog post suggestion: As a URM applicant how to determine safety, reach, and target schools.
Thank you for hosting the webinar. Can you please do a blog on advantages/disadvantages of deferring the LSAT to January and thus applying sometime in February. Thanks in advance
Blog idea: Other than studying for the LSAT full-time, what is the best way to make the most of a gap year? What are things we should absolutely be doing besides studying and preparing apps?
Thank you for the webinar, David!
A key take away from the webinar is that everyone should consider an binding early decision application.
C&F questions that pertain to academic issues specifically and how to handle them
I would love to see a blog post regarding employment statistics, region by region.
For instance in Midwest, Chicago and Northwestern takes up the big chunk of Biglaw jobs. Does that mean it's a battle royal among the rest (WUSTL, ND, UIUC)? What are alternative routes that seem plausible (like joining BIG4 as a consultant)? etc, etc.
Frankly, roughly three percent of LSAT takers end up scoring 170+. Employment statistics among the region would, at very least, broaden the scope.
Thanks for the webinar!
I would like to see a blog post about the differences of the application process between a international students with undergraduate degree outside U.S. and other applicants who hold a degree in a US university.
Thanks for hosting David! Very helpful and informative. I would like a blog post about a rough timeline or schedule of gathering all the items required for law school applications
Ideas for a blog post:
Does it matter whether we attend the info sessions of different law schools and meet with the admission staff? Some tips on what questions to ask the office of admission would be appreciated.
For international students, how to write a diversity statement?
Hope to win the "Edit Giveaway" :blush:
Hello! I would greatly appreciate a blog post on the process for re-applying to law schools if goal schools are not attained the first time around. Are new letters of recommendation necessary? Should an applicant ask permission of a recommender to use the same letter twice? Is that letter retained in LSAC after initial application? Is a new LSAT score necessary if moving from applying toward the end of the application period this year to the beginning of the application period the following year? - Thank you!
Blog post I would love to see: managing a lower LSAC UGPA vs. higher transcript GPA because of a gap in education and attending two or more undergrad institutions.
(Context: The LSAC gpa would be lower due to a lower GPA at the first undergrad school, with a 3 year gap before starting again and graduating with honors.)
I’d love to see a blog regarding people who have been out of school10+ years, and what that means in terms of how relevant our gpa is and if writing a diversity statement is a must.
Enjoyed the webinar. I would love to see a blog post about kind of tailored towards non traditional students and things they should and should not do in the application process. Thank you again.
Thank you for an amazing webinar :)
I would like to see a blog post about how international applicants with undergraduate education in the United States are going to be evaluated differently compared to other international applicants with a degree in a foreign country and other domestic applicants.
David, I realize this may sound heretical on a 7Sage comment, but I would very much appreciate a blog on how law school admissions committees process other tests like the GRE and GMAT for comparison to the LSAT. Thank you!
I really like the blog post about whether going to a t14 is necessary and I think it'd be cool to see more posts centered around specific experiences of those who went to schools outside of t14 (from recent years) and how their careers were shaped afterward (like some sort of spotlight/AMA/interview).
Thank you for hosting that webinar! I would like to read a blog post about reverse splitters (assuming the LSAT will not be retaken due to other obligations), how to instruct personal statement editors (e.g. family and friends) to read through the essays (i.e. basic instructions from the perspective of an admissions officer), whether or not we should ask an alumnus who is a close friend or family member to write an additional LoR for that school, and/or how to incorporate post-undergraduate work experience into applications when that is not mentioned in the personal statement.
