i graduated a few weeks ago and ill be be taking a year off from school (at least thats the plan for now... see below). without going tinto much detail, i have it on good authority that i was badmouthed to a top admissions counselor by a law school student at my university. this student and the counselor have a good friendship. the words uttered were something along the lines of "i strongly encourage you to deny any application for admission submitted by my name." i didn't do anything wrong really, we just disagreed vehemently on certain things and stabbed each other in the back quite a lot...
what should I do? my alma matar's law school is my first choice. my numbers are right in the mid 25-75% range for gpa and lsat. should i set up an appointment with the counselor to fix things and clear my name? i am extremely heartbroken. please let me know what you think i should do. i feel like giving up. should i just not bother applying to my alma matar? i worry that the counselor will spread this commentary beyond to other schools. should I seek out the help of an admissions professional???

Yes, lucky for you, I run one and I know exactly how to get you out of this. Things are going to be alright. PM for my rate.

Speak to the admission counselor, and crucify the other student.

I will beat D.H20man's rate by 10% and throw in a free pizza lunch during our sessions. The sessions will still be over the phone, as is standard practice for admissions counselors, but I'll have Papa John's meet you at your place.

How will the saga play out... this is thick with drama! I guess this is what happens when you let yourself get caught up in vengeful type shit.

You're done buddy. All the counselors at my school do is spend their time talking to other admissions counselors about which students they heard bad, vague critiques of.

I think you should concentrate on fixing your shift keys first.
