Our panel of law school admissions deans convene for their November panel to answer that most eternal of questions—is “optional” really optional and how required is “required”? Touching on Why School X documents, character and fitness explanations, background statements, and more, our panelists will walk you through the ins-and-outs of these documents and will remind you that the most essential truth of a competitive application is “be sure to follow a school’s instructions.”

All that—and more!—in this month’s discussion.
