Hi all,
I was wondering if it's really important to indicate areas of interest on the application. I am torn between two, I know it will definitely change in law school. So is it better to check the "I am not sure" box or just choose one of the two?
Thank you!!

@leahbeuk911 Thank you so much for sharing!! I really appreciate your input. Yes, I like that they tailor it to the interests we put on our applications. It makes it more special and very impressive as you indicated.
Yeah agreed with the others. It’s more so they can target you with what you are interested in. At WashU’s admitted student weekend (which was super well done), they sent everyone individualized schedules. I figured out later that they had tailored it to the interests we put on our application, which was a really nice touch. Since I had checked government, I had a small group session with a prof that is an expert in administrative law and the other people in that group were also all interested in similar things. And some larger breakout sessions re: clinics and clerkships, which I had also mentioned. Very impressive to tailor it for everyone. So yeah, feel free to check what your interests are! It just gives the schools more info on how to try to win you over, basically.
Thank you @oshun1 I appreciate it!! That makes a lot of sense!
I think it’s mostly for the purpose of advertising. As in, if you get accepted they could have a student in the technology & law club email you. Or they could write in your acceptance letter like PS we have a great corporate program!!
Thank you, I appreciate it. @leahbeuk911
FWIW, I checked off areas of interest (a lot of them). I did notice some schools tailor responses to my specific ones. I think everyone understands things change and they are not going to review the application with you at graduation. It just helps shape a picture of “you” to the schools. YMMV and good luck!
