@akeegs92 said: @texvd1988 You'd be correct in that outside of DFW, their pull is a bit questionable. It obviously helps to be an alumni from undergrad but Aggies always try to help other Aggies and I would venture to bet that this would be th…

Also, considering they took Wesleyan from the depths of Obscurity to T2 in a matter of years, I think you guys are bang on.

@akeegs92 said: @cgracia12 I know Law School Numbers had that statistic. In addition, I there have been various other law school sites that have mentioned this. I also am a recent graduate of Texas A&M and one of the advisers and a couple …

@akeegs92 said: Wow! That's awesome! Congrats! I've heard they're pretty generous with their money. From what I have seen- anything above a 162 basically gets you a full ride so aim for that if that's what you want.
-
@akeegs92 said: @texvd1988 Yeah I think they're only accepting about 20% of applicants. They're definitely on my radar. Did they give you a full ride if you don't mind me asking? They gave me 56k. So I basically only have to pay a years wort…

@akeegs92 said: @cgracia12 Whooooop!!! Yes, they are one of the few schools expanding. A ton of undergrad Ags that are attorneys are dumping money into the school. They're planning to keep the classes small though. I expect them to keep climb…

Real quick- does an immigrant of Cuban/ Russian background quality as diversity? I attached a diversity statement underlining why my background means so much. I just wonder if the Russian portion of my background kind of kills my diversity.

I received a response from the admissions team saying thanks and that it was added on.
-
Also, after being waitlisted about two weeks ago for fall, I am going to send in my "why Baylor" essay tomorrow, too.
-
Thanks for your input, guys. It is much appreciated. I figured that I have no chance, but I may as well take a shot in the dark.

Darn- I got jumpy and sent it in Sunday night. I sent in a page and a quarter with the following- Paragraph one going over what started out my interest in Ut- I met an alum who told me about the network, staff, etc. Paragraph two about the campus…

What's a preferred waitlist? There are multiple kinds of waitlist?
-
Thanks guys. I apologize if the questions are dumb in nature.
-
I have always had a mind for logic and argumentation. I also have always had a mind for rules and regulations. It was a natural fit.

@palexandra said: Thank you everyone! @"Dillon A. Wright" @"david.busis" Will do! Thanks for the reminder. @accountformerlyknowasvd1988 Yes, that's what I meant! I'd definitely recommend the admissions package! Some of the bes…
-
First of all, congratulations! Second, if LSAC says 10% is that the bar going from 0-10% essentially? If that's the case, I may have to jump on this admissions package too.
-
Ermmmm- from a person that took the GRE, studied maybe a month while half assing it, and received a high score how in the hell can this justify application into law school?

@stgl1230 said: @accountformerlyknowasvd1988 You're right, there are definitely paths other than big law - it's just that often times, the schools that give you the best shot at big law are going to give you the best shot at everything else. …

@stgl1230 said: It's hard to define "normal" with law schools, especially with this cycle. It's been a very slow cycle. However, if you're waiting 6+ months for a response...that's probably not normal and you are probably dinged or WLd. P…

See, I keep on getting this tier 3 or 4 nightmare status, but I also get people saying that regional schools can be okay so long as you stay in that region. I have spoken to 4 students from St. Mary's in San Antonio, and all have said that you can g…

Now comes the grueling application wait. Time to refresh that button on the daily.

Got mine! At PT range! Phew. Won't get into Ut, but should be competitive with UH, Baylor, Smu,
