DullInTheHead's wisdom

Here’s some advice other people told me that I’ve found to be true as the cycle went on:

  1. Studying for the LSAT always pays off. Invest time into it daily, no matter what, and it will never be wasted. If you consider the fact that a higher LSAT score invariably results in higher scholarship offers, you’re basically being paid to study for a test that has an inordinately high impact on admissions. It’s the most important but most controllable part of your application.

  2. Write why statements, and “optional statements.” You know if you’re not diverse enough for a diversity statement.

  3. Do everything way, way before you think you need to and you’ll be able to apply early, hear back early, and save yourself a world of stress.
