Research all the schools you’re applying to ahead of time as if you’re deciding to commit, and write those optional essays!! Also, don’t rush your application. Try to plan ahead, plan thoroughly, and apply early.

and unless you have a really good reason, apply broadly! I only applied to some limited top schools because the opportunities they bring were the only way it would feel worth it to pursue a career change. but for most people trying to go to law school, it should never be T-14 or even T-20 or bust!
