Recommendation Letters

melissa091

Fairly new here!
I had originally intended to apply for the Fall '17 semester but that has been pushed back to Fall '18. However, I already had recommendation letters from my professors uploaded to LSAC earlier this year. Since they are most likely dated a year early, any advice on what I should do? Am I overthinking it as with everything else?!:)
Thanks in advance!

Your letters are fine! It's okay if they're a year old. If you want, you can ask the professors to update the date—but it's not a big deal.

Yup! Not that I have to give Dave, a master of admissions my ok, but you will be fine!

Just for some extra reassurance, the LSAC website explicitly states that you can use LORs from one cycle for the next. Their only caveat is that it might be polite to check with the writers that this is OK.

What about personal statements? Thoughts?

I mean I would give it an edit. I'm sure you've become a better writer in a year, or at the very least can phrase something better. Perhaps even add something more!
