Top Law Schools

Are you guys writing the optional essays? Do they really expect this for transfers?

I'm not. I can't imagine they are necessary for transfer. Its pretty obvious why you want to transfer, and if its not, its likely that you are mentioning it in your main personal statement anyway.

I sure did. I want them to know just how much I want to be there.

Just start out with this: "durz, me really likey da lawlz quad, eezs purdys." That's basically the way I approached it.

What about that Michigan economy?
