Admissions CoordinatorHave Dean Z read your personal statement -- for free! (Free T14 PS evaluation & Essay Workshop)
Hey applicants!
Next week, the 7Sage Podcast is going to have a very special guest: Michigan Law's famous "Dean Z," aka Sarah Zearfoss. For those of you who don't know, Dean Zearfoss is sort of Youtube-famous for her live evaluations of applications.
We're giving you a chance to have Dean Z read your application! Here's how it will work:
Submit your personal statement on this form: https://docs.superhuman.com/form/7Sage-Podcast-Personal-Statement-Read_dwM9U3ZPMk1
We'll pick three to send to Dean Z to discuss on next week's podcast episode.
If we pick you, you'll get a free Essay Workshop with a 7Sage Consultant
The catch: For maximum impartiality, we can only look at statements for people who aren't planning on applying to Michigan law this year.
Let me know if you have any questions! Please submit your essay by 5PM ET on Thursday, October 1st to be considered.

hi what is the deadline for this? @EthanMadore
I'm going to pick files to send her on Friday!
Will the 3 contestants chosen have their personal statements read live via YouTube, and if so, when would it be uploaded?
Hi Ethan! Thank you so much again for this opportunity! I was wondering if the selected personal statements would be notified if they have been selected.
Hi Ethan, I saw this late and just uploaded my information. I'm extremely interested in being considered for this opportunity! Thank you for this 7Sage!
spoke with Dean Z at a law school fair she's the best!!
Wow, what a treat! Thank you Ethan and Dean Z! :)
what's the difference between a car and a golf ball?
um, what? one's a moving target? I've actually hit both ;)
Can we submit rough drafts? Or is it only final drafts?
Would we be able to apply to Michigan law at some point in the future just not this app cycle?
Same question. I'm not applying this cycle, would we be able to apply to Michigan at some point in the future?
The comment above says this year, but the submission form just says your essay won’t be considered if you intend to apply to Michigan. So I think if someone intends to apply at all, even after this year, your statement won’t be considered for this :/
In the same boat as y’all @SherryLi and @AlysonHoffman !! I would love to have her read mine
if i submit my personal statement will my file be discarded if it isn't chosen? I don't want it to be fed into AI engines.
With regard to the consent to share portion of the form, does this mean that the submissions (resume, personal statement) could potentially be posted online? @EthanMadore
Good luck all. This will be my first recusal.
Hi! When is the deadline for this? Will she do this again in the future?
Dean Z is retiring. This is her last application cycle.
Does anyone know when/how we will found out who is chosen for this?
Hello! If selected, will the full statement be shared on the podcast or just snippits? What extent is shared via the podcast! Would love to submit, just unsure of it there is adequent concern of plagiarism or possibility of admissions (of schools we'd be applying to) reading/hearing the personal statement before its actually submitted.
Ahh, I'm applying so I can't submit my essay :') But what a wonderful opportunity, and I can't wait to see one last podcast episode from Dean Z.
So exciting!!
Thanks for this opportunity! I submitted my personal statement.
Hey looking forward to tuning in! Where can we listen to the podcast?
Does it have to be fully completed ?
Thank you for this! Submitted my app.
I submitted mine already but made some changes, am I able to resubmit the essay? @EthanMadore
hi! are you allowing resubmissions? out of excitement i uploaded an old draft and forgot my resume the first time around! :)
Hi Ethan, I hope it doesn't matter that we haven't actually applied to these schools yet. I am going to submit application, but also haven't sent the personal essay in yet to these schools, so I want to make sure this is not an issue.
Thanks for the opportunity! :) love 7SAGE & dean z!
What an amazing opportunity! Thank you so much! I always love watching Dean Z she is the best! Submitted mine fingers crossed!
If we submit our materials but are not selected for review, can we still apply to Michigan? @EthanMadore
Will do anything to try to get free advice
Awesome, thank you for the opportunity! Submitted!
