Do you think submitting a LOCI and a Why Cornell would be overkill?

Is there much of a difference between the two?

I'm almost identical to this minus the decision part. What makes you recommend the why Cornell essay?

Essentially I'd say that, given my credentials (AKA numbers), aspirations, and expected COA (if I get in, I should get a solid scholarship relative to what I'd get at other t14s going by LSN), Cornell would make the most sense for me out of any school I've applied to. Would Cornell appreciate the sincerity or would it be considered too mechanical and/or robotic? I wouldn't want to bullshit them too much about their clinics as if someone is going for biglaw first and foremost, it comes off as disingenuous, and frankly it appears the clinics don't differentiate from themselves much in the t14 anyway. I've read people saying to look into 2L and 3L classes or professor research and talk up that. While research does interest me, I think they know that one isn't choosing a LS based on professors they'd really like to work with, as LS isn't a Masters/PhD program.

If I were a law school, I would appreciate it if applicants expressed interest in my clinics, classes, and faculty. As this would be written by 0Ls, it's bound to sound a little naive (and, dare I say it, insincere) but at the same time those characteristics are what make law schools unique. I don't think going into academic interests (even if you're biglaw or bust) would be bullshit.
Just my .02
Yea All Right wrote:I agree with retaking23's assessment. Regarding your LOCI, it sounds good except for the part about Cornell making the most sense for you; for some reason the phrase "makes the most sense" sounds like Cornell is your top choice just because it is the logical one, not because you actually have a strong desire to attend (just my opinion).
