Great personal statement - but risky subject matter

Good LORs

***What I learned: Don't assume that you'll get higher on a second lsat. I waited to apply so that they'd consider the Feb lsat (Michigan won't hold apps), and my score actually went down. Had I not waited, I think I could have clawed my way onto a waitlist (this could just be a special snowflake delusion)

*Included Why Michigan(when applied), and a Letter of Interest(early March)
*Sent a Why Georgetown(early March)

Will be retaking and reapplying next cycle
