About & Wisdom
mireina's wisdom
For all my “top choice” schools, I wrote “Why X” school essays. I also tried to maintain point of contact with people in admissions when I could or when there were no “Zoom” admissions events (scheduled a call with an admissions officer, asked questions that I may have already known the answer to, etc.) just so that they were able to put a face to a name and file. I think it also may have served to set me apart from those who didn’t do that and further demonstrate that I was serious about attending if admitted.
For the LSAT, honestly, keep trying if you feel you can do better. I went from something like the 50th percentile to 98th percentile. It took me some time, but I kept at it because I knew what I was capable of and I needed to offset my less-than-stellar GPA. If anyone wants any more advice, feel free to reach out!
