Do it in 2 pages if you can and don't write about why you want to go to law school, that is the biggest mistake people make. They just want to see you can write a coherent essay. The most important thing is to stand out and be original
@nicole.hopkins UVA. I may opt for UChicago ED instead if my October score is high enough. I am interested in both equally and have strong reasons for attending both. But like the article said, law schools may not care for the essay if I apply ED.
I graduated 2011. If you have a professor you liked, it doesn't hurt to try to ask them. Refresh their memory who you are. Maybe dig up an old essay you wrote in their class and include.
