It's not that bad, especially if you're not a K-JD and have done other difficult things in your life... make sure you have kids before law school and bring them with you... secret to success!
This is entirely situation and school dependent... I had schools where I blatantly ignored the deposit deadlines because they gave me no scholarships (even though I didn't need one due to the GI Bill) only to have them hit me up just weeks later wit…
I would try to find at least one more academic especially since you're only four years out of school.
Any type of professor is fine and STEM profs might provide a nice contrast to humanities profs.
The LOR from a colleague is okay as long as they…
Virtually all law schools use rolling admissions. I can't think of a single one off the top of my head that doesn't. That doesn't mean they don't have deadlines though.
Being a veteran does not provide a major boost in admissions, the real boost comes in employment. It's another feather on the scale but I would say it's not even worth an LSAT point so don't rely on it getting you somewhere.
Make sure to file for …
No not at all. In fact February isn't too late for a lot of schools. That being said I would avoid sticking to arbitrary timelines if you aren't ready. Law school will always be there for you so take your time and take it only when you're ready.
Also, unless you plan to go into the NG/reserves you'll have to go to the OCS at Fort Benning. Be careful with recruiters since many do not have experience with OCS contracts and can easily mess things up that can make your life difficult. If you ca…
Also, your best bet would be to do ROTC at law school, especially if you have physical issues because almost six months of basic and OCS will put a decent amount of strain on your body. And OCS is not a guarantee and the civilian option is the harde…
It can be a pretty difficult gig to get even for those already in the military. And a lot of the work can be pretty soul crushing given the nature of the UCMJ. I would highly recommend visiting a base and getting some face time with some JAG officer…
The score is what is reported for ranking purposes. They really don't care about anything else in terms of the feedback/data you get from LSAC after an official take.
Picking one and doing it all the way through and then doing the other is the general consensus so you'll be good to go. Don't worry about arbitrary schedules, just take your time and focus on developing a deeper understanding and you'll be fine.
At least a couple times a year if not more frequently. There was a double layer this past October and June... and June also had a sequencing with conditional rules.
I don't think you need to take that narrow of a view of diversity, as it simply has to be something that gives you a unique perspective relative to other law school students and in no way does it require that you overcame a hardship or suffered from…
Good decision. And for anyone else reading this, the above mentioned sifts are not the only ones that matter, they are just in the top tier of uniqueness. Almost all internships are in the bottom tier as they are a dime a dozen for the most part. Th…
I'm not at home so I don't have the link but there is a yearly update on to ED or not to ED out there that is really quite good. If it isn't NU or somewhere else that guarantees a large scholarship then you're basically just signing away your rights…
Wait a minute... Are you saying you do third person sub-vocalization on the reg? This is like finding out about those people who can't visualize things in their mind's eye!
I would venture to say it's a combination of hubris, an unrealistic timeline, and poor study materials. If you don't have the money for a starter pack on 7Sage, at least go grab a copy of the LSAT Trainer and spend the next month slowly and delibera…
