Hey. . . I would have sent you an e-mail but I can't see your e-mail addy (I probably just can't figure it out). Regarding John Marshall, I don't really want to go there, but I have sent them my $200 deposit. I'm still hoping that I'll be accepted into St John's Part-time (the only one I haven't heard from). If I get in there, I'm going. If not, I'm hoping to squeeze my way in somewhere else in Chicago or NY. I'm not too sure about U of the Pacific yet. It's definitely a lot better than JM and Northern Cali seems pretty great, but I've almost gotten to the point where I'm set on either Chicago or NY. I'm a pretty spontaneous person though, so if they call me up and say "you're accepted and you have 48 hours to tell us yes or no," I'll probably say yes. Regarding my preferred area of law. . . International and Comparative Law and/or Corporate Law. I guess I'm mostly interested in International Business/Trade/Mergers/etc. I'm sure I'll narrow it down some more as the years progress. I'm definitely interested in hearing what you know about JM though, so keep in touch. Drop me an IM or e-mail me (assuming you can figure out how to view my e-mail addy) Good luck with everything! Mark

Don't know where I'm going yet... wanna see if the waitlisted schools accept me. Otherwise, prob U of M. Good luck!

I don't remember the enevelope, but it was only 1 sheet of paper, so I'm sure it was in a small business-sized envelope. It says: "We have placed your application on our waiting list." There are abt. 200 people on it, and it is unranked. Of my (now 2) waitlists, I think I have the strongest shot at IU and would go there over Tulane. I'd really like to stay in the midwest, but we'll see. Hope this helps.

there's no doubt that schools value LSAT scores more so than GPA or extracurriculars. 4+ years of your work and preserverance were, effectively, rendered insignificant by one three hour test. Regardless of this, law firms do exactly the opposite. Your diligence over the next three years should and will pay off, especially because -- given the disparity between your GPA/ECs and LSAT -- you will likely be much more accustomed to putting in time than your future classmates at Kent (ideally!) and hopefully you can channel your current frustration with the system into some phatty t10% grades. Hopefully you realize that t25% Kent > t25% IU for chitown placement!

Hey there. I got a letter recently from Cooley as well, but no fee waiver is necessary; their application is free. Go for it! I understand your frustration that the schools you were admitted to are expensive. Maybe you should consider law school as something you can't afford not to do. Government and private loans are available, and if you work hard and excel in law school, it could pay off financially quite a bit. Good luck with your decisions, and congratulations on your acceptances!

It is obvious by Nancy's post that there are certainly idiots out there going to law school, too. She must be one of these jerks who's a high class snob who probably has a piece of crap GPA and managed to get in by the skin of her teeth by getting a good score on one test. Besides, obviously she's never heard of freedom of speech (or freedom to write in this cas). But there's always a few jerks out there, you can't escape them. Notice how she was too chicken to post her e-mail address, either. That really says something right there. And she obviously has nothing better to do with her time, which shows she's a complete loser.

Or...reasonably her user name. Not posting e-mail is no big deal, but not bothering to even post your username is pretty darn chicken.

Camden is an extremely dangerous city. 2 years ago, it was voted the most dangerous location to live in in the whole United States. There is an extremely high murder rate. And even current law students state that, although the campus and law school itself are extremely safe, the minute you get off campus, you are in "ghettoville" and it is not safe at all. That is not the type of place I want to go to school in for 3 years. The only way I will end up attending Rutgers is if I get off of the waitlist for the summer Contracts class.

you are obviously really frustrated with the law school process, as i know many of us are. instead of calling everyone a jerk and having such a negative attitude about the whole ordeal, you should put some of that energy into studying for the LSAT and getting yourself together. i applied to five schools for fall 04 and got rejected everywhere. i screamed about how my gpa sucked in college and now i'm screwed and how my lsat isn't that great, but i'm not good at taking tests, bla bla bla. none of that got me anywhere. your horrible attitude seems to be preventing you from achieving what you want to. complaining and getting angry never got anyone anywhere. try turning that anger into positive energy that actually accomplishes something worthwhile. because at present you just appear to be a 16 year old caught up in teenage angst and rebellion. perhaps you're not mentally ready for the challenge law school has to offer, and that's why haven't gotten in where you want to go. things happen for a reason. best of luck to you.

Thanks for your post! You do seem to be into numbers and know what you want. Good for you. Good luck in the application process part II...I'll look for your posts on the next application cycle.

Well...it's like all of you idiots who just think you're better than someone else just because you got a better LSAT score than I did. I have a very impressive GPA and I went to the best undergraduate institution with the best Business program in my state. Not that any of you losers care. And attitude? Well...so what? Who cares if you have an attitude? Lawyers have to have an attitude or they won't win any cases. If you're a laid back idiot, you'll lose every case. Obviously if you don't think attitude is necessary to be successful, then you're the ones who will be in the toilet and unsuccessful. And as usual, some of you are chickens, you won't even give your lsn.com username and thus, you refuse to have a response directed at you, so you're a chicken. Chickens don't succeed in life. So if you like being a chicken, go for it. But you're the one who's going to be a loser. Not everyone is a jerk. But those who think that the LSAT really measures your success are in fact jerks, yes. That's a BS test that's biased as can be. I know plenty of successful engineers who are going to become great IP lawyers someday who have LSAT's lower than mine. They had very high GPAs, just like I did, and they weren't lazy, like some idiots with the lower GPAs. Just because some people can get lucky on one test, if you had a low GPA for undergrad, you probably can't handle law school, because you couldn't even cut it as an undergraduate. Those of us with high GPAs have proven we can handle school and high courseloads, so your remarks are a bunch of BS. Besides, I don't care who you are or what you think. Write whatever you want, I don't care if you wouldn't admit me, I'm not afraid to speak up and speak my mind and you as a chicken will not succeed.

Actually, Rachelle I commend you for venting how you feel and what you think about the law school process on your site. Because after all it is YOUR site and you can say what you want. I think you should really consider rutgers, I know it sounds scary but you should really be proud of your accomplishments. You obviously worked hard in school. There is a lot people can say they dislike about the system. For example those who say.. "stop crying about your low lsat score..and do something"-may also be the same ones who feel that schools giving special attention to minorities is wrong. and to some that is not fair..and you might be inclined to say "deal with it and stop whining"-but these people can't change their race. but what you CAN change is your lsat score... if you want to. and you can use your minority status to your advantage coupled with a great GPA (which is very impressive) and a better LSAT score, you can go far.. and you probably will. You aren't afraid to say what you think or how you feel about YOUR situation. I have no idea why nancy called you a "psycho". or how your logic is "all over the place"... actually we all seem to have a lot of time on our hands.. and even particpating in the site is slightly sophmoric..right??? oh well.. good luck everyone on their endeavors.. and hopefully.. it works out for you. and everyone.

You seem to be implying that everyone with a high LSAT score is a slacker with a low GPA. This is not the case. Obviously, there are some exceptions, but if you examined the numbers before making these sweeping generalizations, you'd find that a high LSAT score and a high GPA are positively correlated. I think your anger is directed at a very small subset of people.

I, Mr. Malkin, have both a (somewhat) low GPA and a (somewhat) low LSAT. Both of these facts can be attributed to me being a slacker. I'm not a "bad test taker," I just didn't study because I was too lazy and too cocky. I also have a motivation problem and am quite highly prone to substance abuse. This explains the reasons for my relatively low GPA. So kids, the lesson here is . . a little honesty and self-deprecation never hurt anyone. Suck it up and admit it. . . you're all slackers!!

note: I'm doing nothing these days. going to graduate magna, phi beta kappa, etc...i still have one waitlist, which may or may not produce an offer of admission. if im admitted, i dont know if ill go. if im not admitted, i will probably take the lsat again and try again next year. or i will just grab a masters and blow off law as a career entirely. fyi, this summer is going to rock. going to get an awesome job, parent are building a HUGE house, so huge room for me. life offers one some twists and turns...im just rolling with the punches. take care.

i notice you told someone else that everyone has the right to go to law school, or something to that effect. huh? this is a free country- but it isnt like as americans we all have the god given right to practice law/medicine. it is something that is earned, and the only way a school can determine who is capable of earning the right is through grades and a test that judges ones ability to think fast in a stressfull situation - the LSAT i dont mean to bag but your score is just straight up LOW! WAY below most T3 25% numbers.... does that mean you cant be a good lawyer? no. but you aure as hell arnt helping your case. being a lawyer means being smart/competetive and knowing when to make good decisions. i decided before this process began that the $1000 investment in a class to help me prepare would be WELL worth it in returns when i got a good score. this seems to be somethng you are only noticing now after two trys, hmmmmmmmm

you have the worst attitude i have ever seen. add to that a pathetic lsat score and i cant believe any school let you in at all. you barely deserve the schools that decided to give you a chance. you will be a failure in life, and you are well on your way as we speak.

You are hilarious and I sincerely wish you the best of luck in the next cycle. I am sorry that you think I am a jerk because I made up for a lazy UG experience in 4 hours but that is life. And I actually worked fairly hard for two years to get that GPA up to 2.5.

Boy, those links are cute. People are too chicken to post stuff here, so they post it somewhere else. That was pretty hilarious. But then again, if you actually care what someone else thinks, you're lowering yourself to their level. So big deal.

kissntell is tboneucla at lawschooldiscussion.org

You really shouldn't disparage the schools who did let you in. After all, such schools are packed with students just like YOU: Kids who worked hard in ugrad, had outstanding soft factors, but came up a bit short on the LSAT. What makes you so superior to everyone else in your position? If you really want to take the LSAT again, don't waste your money on Kaplan/PR. Do Testmasters.

why are you so angry? what do you want them to judge you on? calm down - you got into law school, if top schools are mistaken in letting in people with high lsats, prove it by doing well in school and beating out those kids for jobs and stuff

oh, you are incredibly intelligent. business management at norther colorado university, you must gotten a 950+ on you SAT to get into such a great school

But Loyola is ranked #58, (above your school) and i wont have to pay for tuition....the school is taking care of that for me. but thanks for playing!

why you would accuse loyola (los angeles) of not even being in the top 100 is beyond me. the irony is that i am going to a school ranked higher than yours and you are spending all this energy bagging on my schools ranking! haha

hey i just wanted to tell you to keep your head up....an lsat score at the end will not dictate how much of an effective lawyer you can be...cuidate!

As I stated before, but certain people are too stupid to read or understand, in order to be an effective lawyer, you have to have an attitude. If you don't have some kind of attitude, you will never win a case in a courtroom. So unless you plan on doing some type of law that requires no litigation whatsoever, you have to have an attitude or you won't have any clients once you get a reputation for losing. Obviously certain people like kissntell do not understand this. Secondly, who is this fag to talk about someone else's "grammar" when the SOB couldn't even spell the word "grammar" correctly. Talk about a real idiot!

Wow...what's going on here.... Everyone is having a good time with this... OKAY... WE GET IT.. SOME PEOPLE DON'T AGREE WITH WHAT SHE IS SAYING....so.. on with life. it's almost ridiculous at this point. right??? i mean the outside links and forums are kind of nuts... ...i really wouldn't be suprised if some people were so fired up about 1 girl's musings... that they met up and had drinks over it..called each other up and talked about ALL night...as if it isn't already one of the most banal, inane and trivial things to talk about.... with that said... does anyone watch baseball...? i'm a huge white sox fan and good luck to them today....

Yes attitude can be an asset. But people with attitude who lack the substance/intelligence to back it up...these people become the butt of jokes. Kind of like you have here with your blind rants.

Well given the chance I certainly would, but big deal. No one cares about backing anything up around here anyway. And as was said, yeah, so some people don't agree, so what. Obviously what byelka said is true. They just have nothing better to do than make fun of people such as myself. Not a big deal, it happens everyday in life to good people. If this wasn't the Internet, they wouldn't have the guts. They can get away with it here, so they do. Byelka made some excellent points. I'll go along with them all. We should all just agree to disagree. It should be in peace, but if you must post an insult, simply remember that "attitude is everything." And if you disagree with what I've said, that's fine. But if you make such a big deal out of it as some people have, then you're basically making yourself look just as idiotic as you seem to think I am.

the irony here is that kulgirlnco HERSELF is flinging more names around here than anyone else. this is the joke you dont seem to notice. i have seen you call people nothing short of "fag" "idiot" "asshole" among others. should i go on? how can you play dirty with one face and then spin around and complain about how dirty everyone is playing with another? you are incredible! and PS, you attracted attention to yourself in the begining with your bad attitude. you started it. everyone here is just shocked by your actions. dont play victim

No need to play victim to an idiot like kissntell anyway. And as you can see, he couldn't even admit that he doesn't even know how to spell, either. Obviously, as I figured, he ignored what I said. Sure, people are getting a kick out of his stupid comments. You ask to simply stop and he goes on and on and on. Obviously he has no life and nothing better to do and that's his own problem. But there are other people on here who do have better things to do. I'm sure there's thousands of people cracking up about this thread or others that kissntell might be posting elsewhere. But so what. There are also smarter people who probably don't bother posting anything, because there's no reason to. The facts have already been stated, your opinion has already been stated and no one cares. So just leave me and the rest of us alone and keep your lame comments to yourself. I don't really appreciate you constantly putting more crud on my thread. You should learn some manners. But since you obviously won't, I'll just deal with it and continue telling it like it is. Good day to all.

i'm SOOO SORRY i put an "e" instead of an "a" in one word!!! big freakin' DEAL! is that all you have to obsess over? normally i would have my extremely intelligent secretary spell check for me, but she is out of the office right now taking a testmesters prep course for the LSAT! =) i dont even believe you are real, anyhow. it just isnt possible...

I'll say goodbye to everyone. Those of you who have sent me a decent post in the past, you more than likely have my e-mail address. I think everyone else has had enough of kissntell's stupid bullsh*t and everything else. If his secretary is that intelligent, then she should be working for someone else more decent. Obviously she can't be that intelligent working for some dipsh*t like this faggot. But that's enough. I am now closing my postings and shall no longer accept visitor comments. It's too bad one a$$hole just ruins it for everyone.

My name is Parrish. I read your #'s, stats,etc. I am curious how things are going for you? The passion that you have for being a lawyer will be rewarded. I understand your frustration. But you can do all things through Christ which strengthens you. God's got your back....
