Hm what kind of job do you have that requires this? Is it art related? As long as the things you post are appropriate, I don't see whats wrong. But, I don't believe having your own personal website will help that much. Admins usually Google you to l…

Congrats on the interview!

WOW congratulations! I dont personally have experience with law school interviews. But I can give you my two cents. It seems like the school really wants you and I think you should keep things cordial yet amiable. I would say prepare to have answers…

If you are planning to sit the cycle out for sure, I would agree that it would be polite for you to withdraw your apps, so that people can move off the wait list. If i were you, I would prioritize LSAT prep because even 1 or a couple points improvem…

Wow this is great insight into the application process! @LSAT_Wrecker said: This is a summary of what Ann Levine says in "The Law School Admission Game", 3rd Ed. Applications are received and checked for "completeness" (I think I just ma…

great job! Great improvement!

Haha don't worry I'm sure they understood your anxiety. Plus, law school applicants and lawyers in general tend to be Type A, neurotic, risk averse bunch.

Although salary is important to some extent for paying down debt, I wouldn't prioritize the money over everything. In the end of the day, we want the money and the prestige for ultjmate goal of being happy and satisfied with our achievements. For th…

@smtaylor1217 said: @westcoastbestcoast thank you! This is really helpful. I only submitted on January 10, so it wasn't too long ago, but I'll at least start putting together a Why X letter/essay (I chose a different optional essay to submit …

@"surfy surf" said: It’s pretty rare for people to get in the following fall with the June test unless they have a really high gpa and LSAT score in the mid-high 170s. If you guessed the whole test I would suggest cancelling your score. Yes …

I dont see why not. Especially since it will be your second choice and you didnt gain acceptance to your first.

PT 57 Game 4 wasnt exactly a weird game but it felt slow and its a good grouping game you can work on.

Send it now! Put that nervous energy to good use and complete those apps

Postpone until 2019. Save up within that year, gain more work experience and have more time to retake.

Despite you being a Caucasian middle class male, I do see that you are a nontraditional applicant as you are applying later in life and have substantive military experience. I personally think that you can very well write a diversity statement witho…

this would be cool idea!

have you thought of waiting a cycle and perhaps taking the exam in september or december? You should be able to get the score increase that you need by that time. If you desire to get into T14, your first priority is to aim for a PT average first ra…

You should ask your recommenders which titles they prefer. If you google their curriculum vitae or their bio in the university website, you should be able to obtain information about their title as well as their phone number.

Your best bet would be to reach out to the Financial Aid office at UT. They should have the answers for you
