Hi! I am taking Ethan's advice on the Cornell profile page and choosing the Cornell prompts that best fit my personal statement and statement of perspective, but I had a few questions.
I think my statement of perspective fits the Ezra Cornell "any person...any study" prompt. But, do I have to touch on the quote at all in my essay? Do I have to reference it explicitly?
Is it okay to use the fourth blank-cheque prompt for my personal statement ("anything else you would like the committee to know about you.."), but then put it first in the PDF I submit to Cornell? Will it look low-effort if I'm not addressing a prompt specifically? None of the other prompts really fit my personal statement.
Thank you so much for your help!
for the 7sage 5 school application package and for applicants blanketing the T14 (with stats above medians for all), what 5 schools do people typically pick for the package? is it based on reusability or most unique prompts? considering the package and would appreciate any insight!
on the UChicago page, the 7Sage note from Ethan says:
You can submit your Harvard perspective statement as one of the optional statements, though traditional diversity/inclusion language may go less far at Chicago than other top schools. Make sure that you come across as excited to engage with other viewpoints (particularly those outside traditional moderate progressive ideologies.)
You should write a Why Chicago that outlines your own personal/intellectual brand and connects it to what the school offers.
but the Chicago prompts say: The Admissions Committee typically finds one page or less is a sufficient length for most addenda.
so is it 1 page for the perspective statement and one page for why chicago, or one page across both?
i need to take a couple months off, but i don't want to lose access to my analytics. is there a way to pause my subscription for ~3 months, or do i need to cancel?
If you are at the LSAT median for your goal schools, should you retake? Is the goal to be above the 50% median? I've heard these two being conflated, so not sure if there was general guidance for it.
I’ve often heard that score increases on the LSAT correspond to lots of money in scholarships. Are you automatically considered for these scholarships when you apply to schools or do you have to apply? Where can i get more information on this?
Can't you argue that Passage A is discussing the concept of transparency, just without using the exact word? I would say that "Stock markets work best when all the relevant information about a company is spread as widely as possible" --> so stock markets should be transparent, and when people insider trade, it helps the prices become more transparent.
How are we meant to handle this question stem? Should this be treated as a sufficient assumption question?
@Adam i think it says you lose your analytics after 2 months
