Took a gap year, suggestions about LOR and Resume?
Posted: Fri Mar 05, 2021 1:37 am
Hi,
I graduated in May 2020 and decided to re-apply for the next cycle. Since graduation, I worked part-time at a local firm while preparing for the June LSAT. Yet I feel this experience might not add a lot of value to my current resume. Yet I am afraid that finding a second job or another activity might risk my current exam prep. I am also quite worried if those three recommendation letters I obtained from my professors would still be helpful when I apply in September (since they would be from 2 years ago by then and I used two of them when I applied to three law schools before). Could I still use those recommendation letters written from 2 years ago? Maybe I should consider doing volunteer/other jobs after my LSAT exam in June to enrich my resume a little? It would be great to hear some advice.
Many thanks!
