@"Seeking Perfection" CONGRATULATIONS! That sounds awesome! You've done some really great work. I've been seeing and following your posts for like nine months and it's really cool to finally see where you've decide to go. ^^ Super cool!

Heading to the University of Texas at Austin! JUST decided. Hoping to hear back from them about a financial aid appeal, but I'm going either way. It was tough deciding between them and Northwestern (because of NU's prestige), but I want to practi…

Remember that by offering you more money, schools are making a commitment to you. In turn, you have a better shot at receiving an increase by making a commitment to them. Therefore, I'd recommend that, if you can, you give them the minimum amount th…

I'd recommend "The Legal Analyst." It's pretty accessible, but provides some really great insight into the legal system and how legal decisions are made. They handed copies out to all admitted students at UT admitted students day. I'd also second L…

The deposit deadline also depends on when folks were accepted. I was admitted a little late and my deposit deadline is April 23rd. So maybe expect some movement then as well?

This is a great discussion. I'm so grateful that y'all are so interested in having it! Self-help groups are a definite must. If NU didn't already have them, I would start my own at the school I would be attending. When it comes to overcoming impo…

@taranjot said: @"Paul Caint" said: We're bound to get a lot of decisions back this week. What makes you say that? Likely because law schools are aware of other schools' deadlines coming up.

I was there a week ago and another visiting student said he saw two giant black SUVs pull up to drop her off. XD

If Spivey comes back and is too expensive, I'd recommend my admissions consultant. She is amazing and has helped me work through some really complicated stuff as well. She's INCREDIBLE (and probably cheaper). http://knowyouroptions.net/kimberly-sny…

Y'all are doing so great! Awesome to hear back about these results from so much hard work.

Schools all differ in terms of whether they accept additional application elements. I would send an email to the admissions office and ask if you can attach it as a addendum to your application. The worst they can say is no. Here's a helpful guide …

Looks like people are getting better at the LSAT. Thanks for sharing!

YES! NICE JOB!

@"Leah M B" said it perfectly! Ho boy. If we had to disclose every law that we'd broken, that would be--I don't know--intense. Just make sure you don't have any formal disciplinarian actions, and if you don't, you're all clean to not disclose. The …

I wanted to weigh in particularly as it relates to public interest folks out there, as people typically say a PI career is the best justification for going to a cheaper, lower-ranked school. However, I'd say that going to an expensive, higher-ranked…

@"Seeking Perfection" said: I have a couple objections here... First of all if you face the choice of Hofstra with a 75% grant vs Harvard, you should essentially never take Hofstra. Harvard is a great school which will give you emplo…

@nathanieljschwartz said: @TaylorAnn thanks! Yeah my parents are really amazing. Im blessed to have them. My mom moves her beds out of their room when the synagogue gets packed to make more room. I dont know how she does it lol Find a way…

I'm trying to get very excited about it. I'm reaching the end of my wait cycle (I've heard back about acceptances but not $$) and so I'll probably make a final decision around mid April. But I've been overall excited about my results and am super ex…

I might recommend giving the admissions office a call and ask. Since it sounds like it might be one or two schools, it shouldn't take too much time. I know some schools really ask that you don't send anything. UC Berkeley, for example, doesn't even…

All that being said, GPA and LSAT together are anywhere between 70-99% of whether or not you'll be admitted. So don't sacrifice points on your LSAT or a .10 on your GPA spend studying in order to try and take on a job or extracurricular activity ins…

I think experience, generally speaking, is important, regardless of whether it's "work" (ie. paid) or "academic" (ie. unpaid stuff for school) or "extracurricular" (ie. school-related, non-academic). So outside of professional experience, my questi…

Amazing! Nice job! I also had a huge jump in my score! 7sage is absolutely the best material out there!
-
So there's a lot of controversy around this and schools actually differ depending on the details of their policy on the issue. There are also a lot of unethical practices from law schools so I would definitely read terms of accepting a scholarship o…

Yes unequivocally so! This would be an INCREDIBLE diversity statement. I wanna read it when you've written it!

If ranking is most important to you and you're able to pay sticker price (#bless), I'd check out this "what are my chances" calculator from LSAC and shoot for a mix of ones that you've got a good shot at getting into with a heavy dose of those that …
