Will this affect my PS?

Post by Anonymous User » Thu Oct 20, 2016 3:43 pm

So at the top of my PS I put a header consisting of my name and LSAC number so it would be easy for them to reference. But instead of putting my number I used a smiley face as a place holder because I didn't know my number at the time, and forgot to replace it, like this:


John Doe
LSAC No :>)

First sentence of PS...blah blah blah blah blah


Obviously after the ":" was supposed to be "L123456" Do you think admissions people will notice this?

They definitely will lol, considering they actually read these word for word, and some schools actually prefer that you have your Name and LSAC number on there. If you're paranoid about it, maybe email them or call and see what they say.
