Are you employed by a dog walking firm and are you paid to do it (declare it on your 1040, etc)? If so, I'd list it on your work experience section. If not, and depending on the number of hours per week/if you are an entrepreneur, maybe include it …
I reapplied and I haven't had an issue come up yet and have been readmitted to three T13 schools (still waiting to hear from the remaining 10; had my Cornell and Uchicago interview this month). As long as there is a reason to reapply (eg to make you…

I vote off. It sounds like you did the activity for only a year, and now you are at least 4 years removed from it (assuming college, etc.). Seems too distant to me, especially if you can easily fill a one page resume already.
But idk, you can mayb…

It's been 9 hours, but if you give me a week I might think of one!

The stress schools put on the LSAT is due to the rankings system. Fix that (if it even needs to be; that's a different argument), and the problems of the LSAT are largely fixed. Personally, I wish law school admissions were more like MBA admissions…
Yale: No
Michigan, VA, Duke: yes (at least I did)
Cornell: Technically yes, but it's an online interview where you give them a combo of recorded video responses and short written essays. This was rather annoying since if the internet crapped out,…
LSN is the best we are probably going to get, but be aware of a few issues that are probably true with the data. Nevertheless, I think some data is better than no data.
1.) I'd bet only about 5% of applicants report their numbers. This is entirel…

Also, let's appreciate the absurdity of this rule for a second. A group of people at the LSAC decided to meet for a day and up…
You would report both your LSAT and GRE score. Your GPA is right around median, so that doesn't make you out of the running. I'd say to have a good shot, you'd need an above median LSAT score. For ECs, work experience is going to be the most valu…
This is very important (and often overlooked) part of LSAT prep. I talk about this in my webinar I did back in October. It's the 6th point I make at the end:

“likely” is a synonym for “most" ~ Graeme Blake
I'd agree if "likely" is used in this context:
"Event X is likely to happen." I'd say that that means there is over a 50% chance of event happening, so it's a quasi-most sta…

Does unpaid work count as work experience or is that volunteering/ service?
Depends what you're doing. Law school applications don't ask whether you were paid or not; however, if it's just an internship, that isn't going …

This is a pretty tricky question because A is a very attractive trap answer. Always remember what your task is as that will help you focus on what is needed to answer the question. Here, we must explain why the researchers drew their conclusion. …
I've heard from a lot of different insiders that Harvard really focuses on work experience, even if you have numbers above median/75th percentiles, and anecdotally, I've found this to be true as well (above median LSAT; above 75th GPA; and an outrig…
A solid 2 pages is better than an extra page of fluff. It's like what my old high school english teacher would say when everyone would ask "how long does this essay need to be?" His answer was always "as long as it needs to be to sufficiently conve…

I'd be doing what I'm currently doing; working in corporate accounting as a CPA. I'm no huge rush to commit to a law school since I like my work and I want to go to law school to become a tax attorney. Any additional experience I get will help in t…
Unfortunately won't be able to attend. Good luck! Know you are ready to take the exam; you've taken PTs, done the lessons, and BR'd. Be confident and you'll rock it.
