Law school

is my former elementary school. This place was once the center of my life, but it has now been shut down and quickly is becoming dilapidated. I cannot help but notice a somber feeling in the air as I think about the memories within those walls. My mind wanders away and I chuckle at how I considered a school of 300 kids, Kindergarten through sixth grade, to be massive. I now go to a university that has over 30,000 people; massive is a…

merge on a highway or show that we can reverse park a car. Many future lawyers probably wish they could become a lawyer without taking the Law School Admission Test or better known as the LSAT. When in reality standardized tests such as the LSAT are necessary for life. Therefore, one will see that Law School Admission Test should not be removed from the Law School application process due to the fact that _____________ Beneficial, essential, convenient, We…

Some school days were rough. My parents both immigrants, with no education, could not help me with simple school work. I was mad and embarrassed because I felt like I did not have any support. Regardless, of their background my parents instilled in me the value of an education, always wanting the best for me. I continued with my school work and my dream of becoming an attorney. Some days, that dream seemed far away and almost impossible. I would constantly think “Am I smart enough to go to law…

A law school application is about making one’s case for admission. Thus, I’ll make this addendum my closing argument. I recognize that my LSAT scores are significantly below your school’s LSAT percentiles – and I take full responsibility for my scores – but let me take the opportunity to explain why I should strongly be considered for admission nonetheless. First, despite what my LSAT scores imply, I believe my application makes a compelling argument that one can reliably predict that I have…

“Armed Educators (and trusted people who work within a school) love our students and will protect them. Very smart people. Must be firearms adept & have annual training. Should get yearly bonus. Shootings will not happen again - a big & very inexpensive deterrent. Up to States.” after the shooting in Parkland, Florida, President Trump suggested that teachers should be armed and trained every year to ensure school safety, in the event of another school shooting (Trump, 2018). Not only this tweet…

CUNY law school presents a good instance of the gap that exists in gender enrollment of the freshmen in CUNY college system and the private college system, which also is prevalent in most of the colleges in New York. The male freshmen students in the CUNY College present a percentage ratio of 35.4% against the female percent, which is overwhelmingly huge, 64.6%. Female freshmen entry is higher than male freshmen entry in CUNY College. This indicates the number of the freshmen; both, males and…

Why am I not applying for law school? When I graduated high school and on up to my third semester of college, I was a Political Science major determined to go to law school. I even created a vision board with the list of school that I was going to apply to. Now, three years and three major changes later, I find myself applying for a Masters of Arts in English at Wayne State University. English began to alter my plans during my first major specific class. Prior to my Children’s Literature class,…

Dear Georgetown Law School Admissions Council, Thank you for deferring my decision to regular decision. Georgetown University has always been my dream school for as long as I can remember, and I am beyond grateful the continued consideration. Due to low SAT scores, I attended the University of Delaware after high school. While at Delaware, I worked extremely hard to maintain a 3.96 GPA so I could attempt to transfer to Georgetown University. Once again, my scores were still a huge barrier…

John Jay School for Law is nestled on Seventh Ave, in the Park Slope neighbourhood. Through the heavy double doors the scanning machines sit, eagerly awaiting one’s approach as they gobble up your bags and other items, illuminating all the contents to the school safety officer before excreting them out the other end. Up the clammy steps to the second floor where all the classes cynically open their doors and suck you in. Forty minutes you sit, seated on the hard, coloured chairs behind trash…

Lincoln-Nebraska. I am majoring in Classics/Religious studies, Political Science, and a track in Pre-Law. I chose these majors because I want to be prepared to further my education by attending law school. Depending on my future LSAT scores, I have many different law schools in which I would want to attend. Nebraska school of Law seems amazing from my previous visits, and it would be a dream to attend an Ivy League school. Once I attain my J.D., I have a clear idea of what I would want to do…
