  • I don't think it's necessary. FWIW last cycle I got into HLS without writing a Why X statement or a tailored personal statement. The general consensus I've heard is that for the top 6 schools, they already know you want to go there and so you don't …

  • @"Second Language" said: @"HLEGC.2003" - what do you mean by applied to NYU in Sept and April? I am pretty new to the application process. Can you apply multiple times to a single school? No, I just applied in September and by the time April…
  • I'm not currently being ghosted by any schools, but I applied to NYU in September and by the end of April, they still hadn't given me a decision. I wound up getting annoyed and just withdrawing before they got back to me haha. That's crazy you still…

  • That makes sense, thanks. Best of luck on your retake!
  • Follow up question for anyone who might know: UChicago says "Any large differences between LSAT scores, GRE scores, or GMAT scores should be explained in an addendum" Does anyone have an idea of whether a six point increase would qualify as a "large…
  • Thanks. Yeah, good point. I'm going to try to avoid writing one. This would mainly be for Michigan, which asks for an explanation if there's a difference of six or more points.
