Extra Curricular Information

I thought I wanted to be a teacher and pretty much my entire resume is built upon education/social justice/working with kids. I have extensive, consistent work in these areas, so when I wrote my essays I could easily back up the claim that I was interested in public interest law. I took a Blueprint Prep course, and my second LSAT was in December - I applied pretty late in the game despite my original plan to apply by Thanksgiving haha.

Additional info & updates

I realized my last year in school that I wanted to become a lawyer, so I have spent this year substitute teaching and doing the application process. Looking at other profiles I feel like I applied to a tiny number of schools, but I also really worked to find schools that would be a good fit and where I would have a good chance of getting in.

I am really happy with Loyola and will probably end up there as I am thinking I want to stay in the LA area.
