Admissions Process is Hard
By Inactive User in LLMbyM on Mar 18, 2014
Hello my dear reader!
With no introduction let me dive into a topic I most eagerly wanted to share - THE admissions process (honestly, I was trying to come up with an adjective that could possibly be close enough to describe these torturous procedures, and yet I couldn't come up with one). This post is an introduction to the upcoming series of those dedicated to the peculiarities of the admissions from my personal perspective, and I will try my best to keep you interested.
At first I would like to point out, that I hadn't found any blogs regarding the process of admissions - and that's a pity! I asked a friend about it, and he said that admissions cycles make people feel the competition. to an extent where they become simply scared to share any bits of information regarding their status in order not to have it used by a third party, or worse, a fellow applicant. For example, any time I asked a specific question on LLMguide.com, it was rarely answered in a specific manner; and once another user actually provided me with completely wrong info!
What I am trying to convey, is that it is NOT an applicant-eat-applicant kind of world out there, and law school admissions is a hard process to go through without at least some support from fellow applicants. Commiserating together won’t hurt anyone, and we, fellow LLMs, have got to stick together.
When I myself was a prospective, I wanted to know everything about GPAs, essays, diploma evaluations, LSAC, and any other application elements. I believed, that if any part of your application is in any way weak, your whole application is weak. I still think that is true. So, let me share the steps of the process itself.
Stay tuned!
