Application Portfolio Assistance
Posted: Wed Jan 08, 2020 7:11 pm
Hello,
I am looking for help building my application portfolio. I don’t want to apply to more than ten schools because I really want to be able to put in the energy required to develop a unique app for each. I have a very particular idea about what I want to do. Here’s relevant info without giving away too much. I plan to apply in September 2020.
3.6x (low) / 16x (middle of low 160s)
Ethnicity: Mixed White/NA/AA/Other Hispanic
Master’s degree
Multiple leadership positions, collegiate athlete (NCAA D1)
C&F issues (minor misconduct. non-academic, non-criminal)
Currently working in legal field
Here’s what I would like in an ideal world (a federal clerkship is an added bonus):
1. TX biglaw in tax practice.
2. Chicago biglaw in tax practice.
3. TX/Chicago biglaw generally.
I live in a rural part of the Rocky Mountain region and have no ties to TX or Chicago, but I cannot stand the thought of living long-term on the east coast or in a big CA city. Going to law school in one of those places would be fine though.
Thanks for your help!
