anyone interested in reviewing each other's personal statements, resumes, essays etc.? May be a good way to get ideas and also learn about schools you did not consider!
A lot of the example interview questions I've seen online seem to overlap with some of the content covered in essays (why law? why now? etc). Are there any tips to bring up new information/not sound too redundant?
Thanks guys! Ttuden, I checked out your friend's website- does he do essays and other elements of the application process? I was only seeing LSAT tutoring
I think that's entirely optional. It does not affect your LSAT at all, it's just to make the process for Law schools to find the right applicants who have the characteristics they are looking for easier .
The New York Times has a feature called "Room for Debate," which has about 4-5 essays written about a specific topic. This provides good practice for the comparative reading passage.
After the LSAT I dropped into the essays. Now that I'm done with that stuff...I'm trying to work off the weight I gained over the last year while studying.
...and I still do logic games....and sometimes a bit of LR. Can't shake it.
That's how you know you're getting better - when the rules of logic cease to be optional and start becoming your default mode of thought. And if you think about it, isn't that how it's supposed to be anyway?
