C/O 2017 Age Range

Post by itachiuchiha » Wed Mar 12, 2014 9:40 pm

I'm curious to see what the age range looks like of those who are applying this cycle.

I turn 21 as of midnight tonight.

so far from the 12 votes, I am surprised to see only 1 person at 22. That is around the standard age for a k-jd right now.

You're going to get some skewed results because each of your categories aren't distributed the same.

I have a friend at HLS who turned 21 during her 1L year. I could not even imagine what it must be like to be that young in law school.

One of the last places in the world I'd want to spend my 21st birthday is at law school.

I could be mistaken but wouldn't one be quite socially excluded? There is a BIG difference between a 21 year old and a 24 year old.

The 25-30 category is too broad. 25 is a normal age to start, 30 is non traditional territory.

I can't imagine what. A 20 year old might be somewhat excluded because they can't go anywhere to drink which is a big law school event.

My 1L class had a girl that turned 21, as well. That seemed to be the only time it was an issue.

And 24 people have selected 25-30. I'm most interested in the early 20s v. mid 20s v. 30+ breakdown.

Full disclosure: 25 and happy about it

Just turned 26. But I still have all of my NCAA eligibility, so I've got that going for me.
