Admitted to Georgetown University…not submit any supplemental essays. Completed KIRA video interview. Sort of phoned this application and KIRA interview in so I was happy with the waitlist. **GULC (A) **- Wrote both “Why Georgetown” and “Top 10” essays. Did a unique/humorous Top 10 list which I think helped me stand out. Also included brief LSAT…
…with as official scores!!!!! ««< Good luck! **Harvard Interview: ** I am one of the few people who got rejected from Harvard after getting an interview lol.

…11/22) and then UR4 on 12/4 (the day before I got the II). Interviewer was the sweetest person in the world and was just incredibly kind to me. Got the acceptence call around 7:00 am MST, and had a voicemail left (I was sleeping). Called back when I woke up :) ASU was my second A, I found out via email right as I…
…got the R in Feb when I already had 8 T15 acceptances, an interview for BLOS for $$$$ at Berk, and $$$ from Michigan). Now, I look back and I am so grateful I had the choices I did, because it made me make the most financially sound decision and I am happy where I landed- . If Harvard would have accepted me, I would…
…but not selected as finalist (such a tease) Harvard interview: The most one-sided of all my interviews. I immediately felt good about it (told some friends I probably had a 9/10 performance), but then I fell into a downward spiral of overthinking every response. In particular, I said my “greatest weakness” in terms…
…I hit on the same anecdote in every single one of my interviews, and I think it was well-received. Harvard Statement of Purpose -I opted for a different approach contrary to what many recommended. I did not use my traditional Personal Statement for this topic. Instead, I went with a much more direct 1-page statement…
…a few months of silence Chicago - nothing extra, mediocre interview, no LOCI for WL Harvard - nothing extra Columbia - nothing extra, no LOCI for WL Penn - strong Core Values, wrote essay for Dean’s Scholarship NYU - nothing extra, wrote mini LOCI after Hold UVA - nothing extra, wrote LOCI after a few months of…
…I spent $2000 in applications. It was well worth it. – Interview advice: a lot of interviews are temperature checks (are you a normal person). Come prepared with specifics about each law school (classes, professors, clinics) that excite you and make you want to attend them. Do a few practice interviews with…
…a friend. **Personal statement ** Do not use AI at all! **Interviews ** I thought most of my interviews went poorly, but I was admitted to 4/5 of schools I interviewed at. I still cringe thinking about some of my interview answers, so know that there is hope if you feel like an interview didn’t go well. Although I…

Withdrew from RTK before the interview because I knew I would take the Darrow/Mordecai/AnBryce over the RTK with its five-year…
…go there. I prepared extensively (probably too much) for interviews, so no possible question could catch me off-guard. UofC managed to still do it, though, lol. **Authenticity: **I wrote my essays more colloquially than most people, with a personal narrative style, which I believe helped me stand out in a crowd of…
