I don’t have a whole lot to say except apply early and know most schools probably won’t give you a decision in the scheduled time they tell you. Waitlists aren’t the end of the world either!

If you get diagnosed with a life-changing medical condition during undergrad, take time off IMMEDIATELY instead letting a semester of poor health tank your otherwise stellar GPA.

I am a First-generation American and have been working as a paralegal in Big Law since right after graduation. I applied as early as I could in the cycle, which I think helped.

Although both UMN and GWU were tempting, the Iowa offer was too good to pass up. I didn’t want to sit around on waitlists and I reconciled a slightly lower ranking for $$$$

Find a balance between employment outcomes and debt. A school outside of the top 14-20 is probably not worth 150k+ in debt, no matter how much you want to go there.

Study with LSAT Demon, apply to a lot of schools, consider the total cost you’re paying not just the scholarship amount.

Take your time on your application and do all extra essays. You might be above medians, but the essays prove you are serious which can be rewarded with extra $$$$.

My two cents: Apply far and wide if you can afford to do so. I had several surprises in my application results and was grateful that I applied to many schools.

WF has a “non-binding” early decision program, and that’s what I was accepted to with a 45k scholarship. deferred myself to regular decision and was waitlisted
