Find something to take your mind off of the applications and find something that you can control. Once the applications are sent, it’s no longer in our hands. This has stressed me out so much, so I’ve started hitting the gym a lot more than usual, but it helps me keep my mind off of things.

Admitted to Samford UniversityThe application process is full of a lot of things you cannot control. Put in your best effort to control the controllable. Submit applications early, study hard for the LSAT, put effort into your essays, and the right school will find you!
