Extra Curricular Information

Work Experience/Softs are not unique, but they are somewhat significant. Probably "average" to"slightly above average," or on an LSAT scale maybe a xxx*.

*Originally I had said that my softs were a 165. Upon reflection, I might change that to a 169-170 given that I earned acceptances to a lot of schools where at least one of my LSAT or GPA was at/below median. In the case of HLS, both of my numbers are below median, so even though I was initially waitlisted, I'm not sure why they accepted me at all.

Additional info & updates

Numbers are sufficiently accurate.

All scholarship offers are listed as 3-year totals. None of the amounts were negotiated except for UChicago (initially $0, then $15,000, then no change, then $75,000).

I did not apply to UVA because the culture did not seem like a good fit.

I did not apply to Yale because I did not feel that I was a sufficiently compelling applicant (neither numerically nor in terms of softs).

Wrote "why" essays for Duke, Michigan, and Northwestern.
