hoping i have half the luck you did. Congrats
Hey! I have similar stats, how were you able to get $75,000 out of Cornell? Any suggestions?
Sorry to respond to all of the questions in one comment, but hope the info is helpful: 1. I wrote Why X essays for Berkeley, Cornell (just wrote a statement in the box in the application), Duke, Penn, Michigan, UVA (submitted after I applied), and Texas. 2. I submitted the scholarship app shortly after I was accepted and that was their offer. I'm pleasantly surprised and it definitely made Cornell a stronger contender than it was at the start of the process.
I would highly imagine his (her) success is due to 2.5 years as a PC volunteer in Africa, otherwise would not have had acceptances from nearly all of those places
I would say that my PC service played an integral part in the overall narrative of why I want to attend law school and become an attorney that I articulated in my personal statement and individual school essays. However, I would argue that it wasn't the main factor or causal element that led to me getting into the schools I've been accepted to. It's possible that "soft" factors may be playing a larger factor in admissions this cycle, as there are a greater number of applicants, potentially evening out the field for high/good GPAs and LSAT scores. Best of luck to you the rest of this cycle!
I'm a little unclear on where you ended up deciding to go. I have some similar stats and softs so I also wanted to say thank you for all the detail you included!
Nevermind, I see everything was withdrawn but Penn. Good choice!
Congratulations on all the amazing acceptances! I have the exact same stats as you, so I wanted to ask you some questions :). Did you write "Why X" essays for the t13 schools? What do you think contributed most to your successful cycle? It would be awesome if you could reply to this! :D
