@"Alex Divine" for example, say that I added additional hours of volunteer service but my old supervisor has passed away. I just don't see how they will obtain that my hours are off.
You never know my friend. Those bar examiners dig…

The more I talk to people, the more I realize that the ABA is quite active in its investigations into bar applicants. How far are they willing to dig? Will they scrutinize every tidbit of information? Will they care about my padded …
@combsni I think it needs a little work for what you are trying to convey.
First, addenda should primarily be used to explain weaknesses in your applications for which you have a good explanation. Now, I'm not saying this is an excuse or what yo…
I'd pass on it. Experts generally say they aren't worth it. Focus on the LSAT and your GPA. There's conclusive evidence that Pre-Law majors/minors don't, as a whole, do that great in law school compared to other majors. So I doubt taking a class or …
Did you waive your right to see the letter on the LSAC website? If so, then it might create an ethical problem... Otherwise, I'm pretty sure you're aloud to.
Whether or not it is narcissistic, I do not know, haha. What kind of improvements were yo…

Thanks @"Alex Divine"! I will take a look at this website and share it with my boss
Yeah, I figured most profs must have some experience writing them, but often out bosses might not.
Good luck

Why does NYU require like 5 extra essays???? :'(
Haha, yeah, I looked into NYU and saw that Oh well, I'm looking at it as extra opportunities to sell myself! And that video just made my night. Thanks
p.s. you got this
@mk940808 said:
I've been staring at my LSAC screen for two weeks now willing myself to write the extra scholarship essays :'(
That's rough. But like @montaha.rizeq said above me, you're basically almost at the end zone. Also, time is ticking, so …

Don't go to a T3 law school over a top 50 school for 21K less in tuition, please. Go to a reputable school and just move a state over after graduation. You don't want your resume to be the butt of some hiring manager's joke.

I recently received my academic summary report from LSAC, and it seems that LSAC counted a zero-credit course that I failed (long story) into my grade. Is this intentional? If so, how do they factor it in? If not, how can I get thi…

Are my chances of admission at a T-14 law school affected if I have multiple LSAT scores (with the 1st being mediocre)? If so, is the effect positive or negative? And to what degree?
Thank you for your thoughtful responses.

That's amazing. What's your study routine typically like, if you don't mind me asking?
Haha Thanks! And no problem!
Well, right now my schedule in general has been a bit hectic due to work and other obligations. To be hone…

I think seeing gains might make me feel less discouraged all the time, so I'm going to try to stick to a consistent schedule. Thank you for this
Of course! And you're right! Once you start seeing the gains, it becomes a lo…
I second @"Dillon A. Wright" 's advice about attempting to get accommodations. If you can get more time, I'm sure that might be able to mitigate some of the negative effects of the dyslexia.

As mentioned by another, this is a HIGHLY personal decision and topic, and one has to live with one's conscience and decisions. Whichever your decision (visible tattoo or not), go for it with a side of gusto!
One thing I have been doing is doing that I read about is the 500 push ups a day challenge. It is something you can do at home and it's an amazing work out. At first, I had trouble doing more than 120. Now I can comfortably do sets of 25 (Took me ab…

How long should these be? What sorts of things are included in this? I'd appreciate any feedback. thanks!
Sounds like a page should be fine. Just describe the ways you have overcome being poor (growing up poor, going to …

I need some advice.
I do not think I am interesting in Big Law, but possibly medium law.
Depends on the stats of the T3 school vs the T50. For all intents and purposes, the term T50 law school is a pretty meaningless distinction. A…
