Extra Curricular Information

I Love basketball.

Nah, seriously, nothing too spectacular. I wrote an honors thesis, minored in econ, was involved in some extracurriculars, and have been working as a paralegal since I graduated in May 04.

Response to curious:

The weakest part of my app was my grades. I did have an upward trend, and i was a failed biology major, but they were still so-so.

The strong part was my emphasis on international law/relations. I wrote my honors thesis on a China/America question, studied abroad in China, and had my thesis advisors write two of my recs. I think this was probably part of what got me into Columbia. The other part was probably luck.

Additional info & updates

W and M: 14K/year

GW: 10K/year

Chicago gave me a "hold" even though I didn't apply EA or ED...they asked for more writing samples and an interview.
I didn't follow up on this because I don't really want to go there.

Virginia and NYU originally deferred me; there was no way to choose "deferred, waitlisted."

I'm very stoked about Columbia. Good luck to everyone that's reading this with the whole law school process.
