Hi Kelly, I am also located in Iowa City and would love to meet up to study and discuss Law School Admissions/Etc.
Thank you for taking questions. I have a few regarding personal statement and an optional addendum.
Should I include an optional addendum with the following context? I had a 3.9 GPA but my final semester I got a 3.5 term gpa and also had to withdraw from a class leaving a W on my transcript. Do law schools view this as something needing an explanation/should I bother to write and submit an addendum?
While getting feedback on my current personal statement a critique I often get is a lot of what I learned is taking up the bulk of the paper and not what I did with it/how it matters. Context: I am choosing to write about my capstone project during undergrad which led me to want to go to law school. I think what I learned and how it impacted me is important but how can I balance having the background and discussing how it relates to law school? 2 pages is really condensing.

Disney: People are able to win a ticket contest by being the 3rd caller to the radio station on April 29. All other contestants can win a ticket by entering the giveaway online. Diana won a ticket but was not the 3rd caller on April 29. Therefore, she must have won the giveaway online.
