Write both and see which one you prefer. The military topic could be a diversity statement if you choose to write your PS on the other one. Judging based on the topic is useless. They’re fine topics, see what writes better.
I think 3 months to finish the CC is possible if you study like it’s a full time job. I think 4-5 months to finish the CC is most realistic, taking other priorities into consideration like work/school/emotional well-being. You need time after the CC…

I would say you don't have to hit all 4 points. Yes a compelling intro can help but it needs to be genuine.
There are a lot of great, free examples out there and the 7Sage admissions course does a good job. You might a…

All I can say is you're not gonna get it done in a few weeks.
Why do you think that? I got my PS done in exactly two weeks. I'm not an experienced writer either.
I think if you give …
It took me over a year to figure out a solid personal statement topic and finally got the whole thing finished over the course of a month. All I can say is you're not gonna get it done in a few weeks. Just set out a few hours a week or just an hour …

A MBF is something that cannot be true in any possible world. So if the stimulus gives us the conditional statement: A--->B--->C the MBF would be A and C.
Because the "prices remain constant" element has no l…

Scratch the whole thing above lol i was only reading your translation earlier but after I looked at the question just now, I think I found the issue. Your contrapositive of the stimulus is incorrect. PC is a floater, …
I got a new job Gave my 2 week notice to management today. HR wasn't here today so I have to wait til Monday to figure out if I can just leave without the 2 weeks. Hoping to just have a couple weeks to chill and LSAT study before the next job. I'l…
Hell yeah full scholly! If you're comfortable with the employment and salary prospects, sounds like a good plan.
You never know what will happen tho, you might end up being able to use this scholarship to negotiate for a slightly higher scholly at…
Re cheap easy things to cook —
Salad — spinach, ground turkey/ground beef, chunky salsa. You can also throw in rice, avocado, tomatoes, bell peppers, and hot sauce for some kick.
Chicken, sweet potato, eggplant

I think that it would be a good idea to drill LR as well. IDK how much time you have but when I took 3-4hr/day to foolproof LGs, I got through 3 LG sections a day.
When I foolproof LG again, I will either take that same amount of time, 3-4 hrs, foo…
I think the out of state part holds some relevance especially for regional schools (since you’ll likely end up working in the area of the school and schools are taking a gamble accepting students who don’t necessarily show an interest in living out …
Thanks y’all! I really appreciate this community. I am trying to be more active here as I’m taking my law school goals more seriously. Hearing about other 7sagers struggles makes me know I’m not alone and hearing about other’s successes keeps me ins…
I'm 30% done right now, I've been working on the CC since January. TBH I've barely been working on it the past 2 weeks but I'm trying to get back into a better schedule. I don't think I'll be ready by June, but I have hope.

@"surfy surf" I agree but Brooklyn Law with a 167? Should anyone advise that lol?
I honestly wouldn’t be able to speak on the “right” way to advise someone who’s GPA is below most all law schools 25th percentile (no offense). …
Not to add on to this but I’ve been lurking bc I’m curious what people have to say about Spivey. I think that context is really important here. If OP emailed like “dear Spivey, attached is my PS and my resume and here are my stats. I have been rejec…
if all of the logically important factors are equal, then I would choose the most gay friendly school closest to the ocean/a body of water. Also important -- internships and clinics. Corroborative students. Accessible professors.

Advising you to go to a school with intention to transfer is really horrible advice.
Which, ironically, Spivey seem to agree on (barring some disclaimers).

I think that, if someone was to come from an area in which they did not need a car, it would be kind of silly to buy/lease a car just for 3 years of law school when their income is gonna go to 0. Or, if they are going to a school on the opposite coa…
That makes me super hesitant to ever reach out to Spivey. Advising you to go to a school with intention to transfer is really horrible advice. I 2nd applying to UCI, they are splitter friendly. What about Fordham?
Maybe write both a Why X and an LOCI now. If you need to send an LOCI in the future, you won't have to worry about having exhausted your sucking up to the school ideas in your Why X. The LOCI could include half the things that you like about the sch…
Did you check off interest in a center field of law or write about a center field in your PS/Why X and does that professor teach a class in that field? One school I was accepted to, a student from a club I mentioned an interest in reached out to me …
Definitely put yourself on the waiting list. I think they typically establish a test center for the people on the waiting list. I signed up for the waiting list last June and ended up in a test center a few miles away from the center I originally si…
