@stjohnce I’m really sorry you had so much trouble! I’m afraid I don’t know what went wrong. You could try asking GoToWebinar’s customer service before tonight’s webinar.
There is another webinar tonight! Come! We’ll focus on résumés but take all sorts of questions.

@jzzraven @oberdysz For those of you who dialed in and want a shot at the free critique: what’s J.Y.’s favorite food?
Please only submit an answer if you dialed in by phone. Honor system. Thanks!
@jzzraven Great question. We're doing the giveaway via survey, which means you'd need to be on a computer—but I'll tell you what. Remind me after the webinar (via a comment here), and I'll post the survey questions here, so that anyone who dialled i…
@WesleyBWard The webinar is totally free.
Update for all: I'm totally revamping this webinar, and it has information you won't find anywhere else in the 7Sage admissions course. I hope you can make it!
Okay everyone—this is available to everyone now, even if you haven't purchased the admissions course. We've also added more schools—it goes through the T20 now!
@Lsatkayy Not currently, sorry!
@"side braid" I would ask your professors if they could update the letters. It shouldn't be too onerous—presumably they'll still have the old LORs lying around on the computer.
I have been summoned @LSATcantwin.
I actually wrote all about the logistics in a free lesson called, well, Recommendation Logistics in the Admissions Course.

Totally fine to use last year's LORs! If you want, you could ask them simply to update the date and resent to LSAC (you'd have to request again), but that's not necessary.
@lizpil in that case…don't make the essay a joke
No need to prove that you were funny. Just write a straight essay about why you did it and what made you decide to move on.
I would write about stand-up. You have to account for what you've been doing, and I guarantee you that the adcom doesn't get many applications from stand-up comedians. You will be memorable.
Just write the truth. Tell us why you started doing stand…
@username I'll post a link to access the webinar about a week before it happens.
@therealnas we'll leave out your name, but we won't go through and change every detail.
@1LBound send whatever you want—we're looking for résumés that provide us with…
@"alaa.11" @akistotle yes! The recording is up, and you can find it here: https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/personal-statement-workshop/
We haven't officially announced it yet, but we'll probably do another general admissions webinar on 9/19, and a…
@apawalter @akistotle …and as soon as I wrote that, I realized you're not asking about the admissions course at all. You're asking about editing.
Yes, we have extensive experience editing personal statements and supplementary essays for Canadian la…
@apawalter @akistotle Unfortunatley, the most important part of the admissions course—on personal statements—is geared towards American law schools. If you look at the example personal statements provided by most Canadian schools, they're much close…
@mcneeleyt I'm sorry to hear your computer froze. That must be frustrating.
We'll think about how to these editing raffles as fair as possible if we hold them again.
Sorry if you couldn't join or got kicked off the webinar tonight. We were oversubscribed. There will be another one soon—and we'll post a recording of tonight's. Stay tuned!
