Holy moly, I just received my first law school acceptance letter! Thank you for everything 7Sage and thank you to everyone in this wonderful community. I’m over the moon right now.

I just submitted my applications and I noticed after submitting that on two of them, I list months of employment that conflict with what's on my resume. In the education section I have Sep - Nov but on my resume it says Aug - Dec. Do you think that I should contact adcoms to notify them of the error?

166 LSAT, 2.92 GPA and three disorderly persons charges. I’m applying to all regional schools where my numbers give me a solid chance. Do you think that January 15th is too late for me to apply and still have a chance? My applications are complete minus my personal statement which I’ve been working on for over a month. I plan to perfect it my over the next week (it’s not quite there yet).

I decided to start from scratch two weeks ago and it's still a work in progress. I've had a few attorneys at my firm review it as well. Any feedback would be amazing!

This may be a stupid question but it has been driving me crazy. I plan on submitting both a C&F addendum as well as a GPA addendum with my applications, should I title the header as "Addendum" for both or rather, "GPA Addendum" and "C&F Addendum"? Or am I just overthinking this?

Hello,

I will be submitting applications at the end of this week and my neuroticism is kicking in. If anyone is able to answer the below questions, it would be much appreciated. :)

My GPA is a 2.92 and I cannot decide whether or not to attach an addendum. During my time at college, my father struggled with addiction to prescription opioids. He was out of work and my family experienced economic hardship as a result (parents filed for bankruptcy multiple times, my house went into foreclosure). There were also many times that I had to drive home from school to pick up my brother or work to help my mother with bills. My father was there but really wasn't "there". Thankfully, his situation has improved and he has been in recovery for the last year and a half. Do you think that is addendum worthy? Please note that I will also be submitting a character and fitness addendum related to several charges that I received in college.

This one is kind of stupid but it has been driving me crazy. For schools that I submit multiple addenda to, should I title the header as "Addendum 1" for both or rather, "GPA Addendum 1" and "C&F Addendum 1".

I've notice that a lot of the schools I'm applying to ask for information about "All educational institutions attended" and provide an option for including high school information. Should I include my high school information at all? Also, if my undergraduate university does not rank its students, should I attach something to my application noting this? Almost all of the applications that I've filled out have asked for class rank in the section where I list the university I attended. Is it a big deal if I do not include my rank? I do not believe its required.

Some of the schools that I'm applying to provide a text box in the application form that asks me to explain circumstances that may have effected my college performance or ask that I attach an addendum. Would it look sloppy for me to leave that box blank or should I write something down the lines of "Please see attached character and fitness addendum."

My apologies for long post, things have been tight and unfortunately I can't squeeze the extra $250.00 for an hour of admissions counseling at this time. Going to law school means everything to me and I want to make sure I've covered every angle/nuance before applying (originally I was going to apply on December 19th, right after scoring a 166 on the November LSAT... thanks for that 7Sage!!) but I felt my applications were sloppy and have taken the last several weeks to clean them up.

Thank you for any insight and/or help in advance!
