hi! I am a teach for america teacher who taught in the nyc doe for 3 years, & resigned in june (at the end of the school year). when the summer break started (july), I was accepted to an education policy & advocacy fellowship in nyc that was 2 months long, which ended sept 8th ish
I am applying right now, & currently unemployed - main reason being: I got married early october & was away the majority of the month. I took sept & nov lsats & studying during my downtime all summer & when I wasnt working in sept/when I got back end of oct before nov lsat. other reason being the market in nyc is crazy & I do not think ill be able to get a job that is law school-esk (legal secretary, paralegal, etc) to just work for 6 months before going to school. I will probably continue my job as a volleyball coach & supplement with another retail job to pay the bills until school.
now my question: since I am applying by the end of the month, are schools going to be wondering about my current employment status? do I need to submit an addendum for this? I feel like its a moo point but also idk?

following! Would love to know as well since I was studying this summer with no job since I had surgery in August and was out for 2 months and am currently looking for job while still studying -- but am curious if this will hurt my application having this gap and experiencing not hugely improved scores due to various factors impacting testing for Oct and now Nov. Fingers crossed Nov scores are okay thought! Do I write an addendum explaining gap and LSAT in one page?
