Last year I applied with what I would now consider a half-assed effort. Mainly because I did not write an addendum for my horrible GPA during my first two years and my 4.0 for the last two years after restarting school after joining the military. I also didn't write a diversity statement. Between the two of those, I feel like I left a lot on the table. I had a lot going on last year between returning from a deployment, going right into the LSAT and preparing to ETS while deciding to go to LS or take a deployment contractor job (I guess subconsciously I wanted to go for the overseas money).

Does anyone happen to have an example of something they put together for either of those that I could use as a guide? I'm hoping for some type of a GPA addendum and an idea of what a diversity statement might look like. I don't have a clue about them as far as formatting and content is concerned.

My other question is regarding JAG and its possible affects on practicing law after the military. I guess I just don't know the full extent of what a JAG officer can do in the military but I can't help but wonder if I took that path because I enjoy the military and the retirement, that it might hinder my opportunities outside of GOV down the road. I'm curious to hear what some current JAGs have to say about it.

Thanks in advance.

Anybody..........anything?? Could really use an example or two of a GPA addendum (someone has to have one written about being a crappy student before joining and then turning things around down the road) and a diversity statement. Just need something to point me in the right direction.

I don't think a GPA addendum would be very helpful, honestly.

Yeah, tough to know whether one would help, but usually one would write it because of something very acute during school which caused a semester (or maybe a year) to go severely bad. The "I was a bad student but look at me now" isn't usually the addendum side of the house. So many people are in that boat.

I was a bad undergrad student who just stayed bad. I initially thought about writing an addendum letting them know that was 10+ years ago/look at my Masters/whatever. I didn't. I didn't even really hit it during my personal statement, other than weaving in a sentence or two that hinted at it. Not overt though.

Admissions offices have dozens or hundreds of people who were bad students--then got good. Likely many military are in the same boat. Having now worked closely with an admissions office at a T14, I just don't see an admissions officer going, "Ah ha. I see what happened here. He/she's now ready for law school."

I'd go with no addendum myself, absent circumstances (family death, crime against you, etc.) that make it more than a bad-to-good tale.

Thank you guys for your input. My situation is one of those you kinda touched on in which a death in the family around the time I started school resulted in having to take on financial responsibilities around the household to help my family out. I touched on it in my personal statement but I didn't mention the impact it had on school. I'll go through my statement and make sure they wouldn't be saying the same thing if I decided to write one.

Do you guys have an example of a diversity statement you wouldn't mind sharing??

A few questions - do many veterans apply to law school? Are veterans ranked at the admissions board against each other or looked at against other candidates (or both I guess)?

I think veterans are more likely to apply to business school than law school, from what I've seen from the guys transitioning around the same time as me, and from visiting law schools. For example, I think at NYU, the guys running the veterans' association last year said they had four members total, while their MBA counterparts had 10+.

As for veterans ranked against each other, I don't think that's the case. You'll almost certainly get looked at with all other candidates. That being said, some schools do have a veterans' committee that assists in the admissions process, at least as an extra pair of eyes to help explain things on resumes and personal statements.

It's a much bigger boost for hiring than for admissions. Vets usually outperform their grades considerably.

Oh really? What is it about military veterans that might appeal to law firm hiring? I can think of a bunch myself (discipline, teamwork, etc) but I was wondering what/how law firms think. Thankss.
Biglaw firms are hiring mostly kids who are straight through from undergrad, or maybe did TFA or worked on the hill for a year of 2 before law school. They then take them and put them in one of the most demanding professional jobs out there in terms of time commitment and 24/7 availability. Seeing military experience shows them that you know how to work hard, pay attention to detail, and tolerate not having control of your schedule (for much, much less pay). They really value any work experience, but things like banking or the military, which are high stress 24/7 jobs, look particularly attractive.

It also might be that military people know how to conduct themselves professionally, and the cupcake interview process for biglaw gives us a chance to shine when compared to many of our classmates who don't handle stress well.

All of this. There's also a not-insignificant deferential aura around military service that people attach because of "thank you for your service" combined with a mentality of "I could never do that, so it's de facto admirable." At least a partial truth is that military vets tend to carry themselves with confidence which, when combined with the resume and credentials, makes them outperform their strict academic credentials.

But seriously, are you considering military service in order to leverage your eventual Harvard degree, or are you a veteran seeking guidance?

First post here,

Appreciate all the information everyone here contributes and wanted to run a quick question by you guys. How do law schools and big firms look upon someone who only served for a year but was honorably discharged after an injury that occurred? My time in service was cut incredibly short which was a real bummer at the time. Does this short period of service weaken my status as a veteran in the eyes of an admissions committee or perhaps in a hiring aspect later down the line?

When preparing for the "cupcake" interview process:

It is important to spend lots of time on "crafting" your resume and Q/A's about your experience to tailor to your audience. I know several vets who "winged it" for OCI and struck out from T-14's. I'd spend a good amount of time developing "tiers" of answers/anecdotes. Some firms I interviewed with had a young associate, using a script, ask; "what was the worst thing you've ever been through, and how did you get through it?" I'm pretty sure they didn't really want to hear what my actual worse day was, so I went with a PG-ish anecdote that still showed using "grit, teamwork, and focus to overcome odds", or whatever. Some interviewers seemed to actually want to hear war stories, but I reconfirmed, just to be sure.

Issues I've seen come up with veterans:

1. Connecting with people who don't give a crap about military stuff, and want to talk about stuff they think is cool, like LR, UG, Torts, or whatever.

2. Explaining the "why this city".....lots of vets don't really have roots. Have a really good, well-thought out reason. I underestimated how important this was; I think I got dinged a lot because of it.

3. Drinking with partners/associates. Totally cool to have a few and let loose a bit, but, um, as the law-people relax and get PG-13, it isn't an invitation to cut-loose military-style. Army/Marine/Navy-style LOLZ can be really dark and off-color for the uninitiated.

Basically, if you do proper interview prep, target the right firms, and understand the human terrain, you'll probably kill OCI (or your school's equivalent). If not, you'll suck, and could be scrambling for a job like so many of those K/JD introverts who got median-owned.

No issue at all, how could it be? You'll just need to work hard to show lack of experience doesn't equal lack of maturity/focus/work skills.

It certainly won't be looked at negatively. But much of the veteran boost comes from the actual experience you get, so as Wipfelder said you'll have to sell that more than generic vet. Did you make it through boot camp/get commissioned? Without that, there is a bit of an asterisk on the veteran status, IMO.

Thank you for the feed back. Yes I completed boot camp, the injury occurred later on while in a selection pipeline and a number of months later was discharged.

As a member of my big law firm's hiring committee, I wouldn't hold it against you. Most likely, I would give you some sort of a boost in terms of hiring preference. It would not be the same as someone with a SOF background, for example, but it would be better than someone who went K-JD.

Has anyone found the Student Law Veterans groups at your school to be beneficial?

My school currently does not have one established, I'm debating whether it would be a good organization to start up or if it's pretty vanilla with no outcomes.

Thanks.
