@westcoastbestcoast, This is a shot in the dark and I'd need to see the reports, but I'd want to know how often they survey the graduates, how many people responded, how long they stay in the jobs (if this is available), an…

Thanks! That's the goal.
What about being an ADA? Does it logically follow that a state prosecutor can become a federal prosecutor after a good amount of experience?
I did hear some anecdotes about ADA's eventually…
Hey to be realistic, your biggest chance of being able to work for those Big Fed agencies would be to maximize your LSAT score and gain acceptance to a T14 school. BigFed jobs depend heavily on the pedigree of your law school and not where you inter…
Ask him law school prepared him amply for legal practice. Ask him about his job satisfaction. Ask him the best parts of his job and the worst. And if he could redo the law admissions and law school process what would he do differently.

I believe later this spring. They take forever to release them and the schools seem to release them individually (please correct me if I'm wrong haha).
Thanks for the response!
From my understanding yes. You could get the Hamilton in Columbia Law. According to law school numbers, people who got this scholarship or close to full scholarship had a 175 plus score.

ED is something you do if you think you will not get into any other school. You lose all of your bargaining power if you ED and will have to accept whatever merit scholarship they offer. Most people say do not ED. If you ge…
@Christina-5 your posts really illustrates how no law school is truly resistant to unemployment. It seems like schools like Columbia and Stanford fare better for corporate law than Yale. Perhaps your friend's career interests would've been better se…
Good luck! and congrats to having gone to Chicago. Great school!

Keep them. Or you can sell them. Or show your kids how hard you studied and perhaps give them your prep books to continue your glorious JD dynasty, if they desire to become lawyers
Yes! haha. at least in case you need to ask about your law school prospects, you have a comprehensive post and you dont need to go through the hassle of re-writing it.

Sending your Personal Statement and your Resume should be good enough. However, I would remind my recommenders to emphasize writing, critical thinking skills as well as attention to detail. If they can show that you are conscientious about your work…

My dream is be a district attorney and go after criminals to prosecute them. I don't plan on ever retiring. My journey is worth it. I would make the criminals afraid to face me in court. I would work tirelessly put the bad gu…
It is good that you are settinng your goals high. I agree with @FixedDice .You should spend most of your time on LSAT prep. Nothing is guranteed and you will have ample time to think about law school rankings, employment prospects and all the other …
I agree with @"surfy surf" . Especially because of the racial elements, this would make a good diversity essay and an unique one at that. While alot of law schools don't require it, there are schools like Boston University that ask for a Why Law com…

Don't stress so much. I had one major which it took me 5 years to get. I was accepted at a T15 school despite my GPA being below the 25th percentile.
@10000019 Good work!
There are so many explanations in Ultimate plus that make it well worth it. After reviewing exams numerous times, I heard JY voice in my head when i took the test
@"Seeking Perfection" Wow! Thanks for the details haha. Your family's game of critiquing advertisements sounds ingenious and is definitely something I will have to do when I have kids.
