ADDITIONAL INFO & UPDATES

Some possibly helpful information for anyone trying to learn from my cycle:

- I studied for the LSAT on my own while working full time. It can be done! I definitely neglected my social life for a few months.

- I wrote a long-ish diversity statement that was a pretty big gamble.

- I got mixed reviews on my PS, but it felt like "me" so I went with it.

- I don't have any stand-out extracurriculars or softs that are particularly impressive.

- I didn't target Stanford in any way in my application. I have no ties to CA, and I didn't send a LOCI when they left me hanging for a long time. This most likely contributed to the WL.

- I wrote a "Why X" for UVA and Penn. Penn still opted to WL me :)

- I regret not applying to Yale.

I'd never really thought about it. I guess I'm ready to just get started with law school. Any inkling where you will be in the fall?
