About & Wisdom

Wisdom

  • I applied too late (mid Feb). I have zero business getting WLed at UConn. Will give it another try next cycle. Feel disrespected.
  • Will retake LSAT for next cycle
  • Biggest thing I’ve learned – take this process professionally.
  • Withdrew from undergrad for a year because of severe personal issues. Near perfect grades after I returned. Was required to write about my withdrawal, I feel lucky to have been gifted an added space to say more.
  • About to be a young dad. I’m 22.
  • Resume is mediocre at best compared to many people I’m competing with. I’ve been working full time at an elementary school and I helped found an extremely successful club in undergrad. I worked 20 hours a week in undergrad at a restaurant.
  • My essays touched on overcoming a very dark period in my life and having a kid, and I wove in some other passions of mine creatively.
  • Good Luck.
