I am just starting this application process. I see that with most schools, you can apply either via the LSAC web site, or send in the paper application. For various reasons I think I prefer paper, but I want to check: Are there any specific advantages or disadvantages to either approach? Do the law schools have a preference as to which they receive?
If you apply via the LSAC site, how do you send in your essays? Are those separately anyway, by snail-mail, to each school? Or do you scan them and upload them to the LSAC site?
Thanks,
Steve

Re: Electronic (LSAC) vs. Paper Application?
For the site, it is very easy to upload essays to the LSAC site directly.
Schools as a whole prefer the online apps just for the sake of ease, but I really doubt any admission committee will consider a paper application any differently in review than an online one.
Just do it online. It saves a TON of time and hassle as a good deal of the applications are filled in automatically, and this will make things a lot easier on your end.
