Can’t believe I get to write this, but I am going to Northwestern on an early decision acceptance! I was a little worried when my Nov LSAT came in around their 25th percentile, but it goes to show that if you have a holistic application that tells a narrative, an excellent personal statement, and a decent Kira interview (I talked until I got cut off in one of the Q’s lol), anything is possible!
I was not very confident in my ED acceptance likelihood, so I kept studying for the LSAT and planned on retaking it in January if I did not get accepted. I am so glad to put the studying to rest and celebrate over the holidays! Message me with questions as I’ll continue to visit the site and chat with other NU admits.
Books I recommend: The LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim. The Loophole in LR by Ellen Cassidy. Law School Confidential by Richard H Miller. Reading Comp Hero.
Here’s a link to my reddit post that has my personal statement and resume linked as well:

email me with questions, even if it’s years from now.
