How do law school view certain crimes?
How do law schools view certain crimes on the character and fitness portion of the application? For example, i was cited for drinking underage twice.

I think admissions view underage drinking as a strong soft. Means you are more likely to be a bro. Bro = strong soft.Wright wrote:How do law schools view certain crimes on the character and fitness portion of the application? For example, i was cited for drinking underage twice.

i've heard of interviews where applicants were asked why they didn't have underage citations

LS admissions cares about crimes to the extent that they effect your ability to get admitted to the bar. Maybe a school like BYU is different, but otherwise they really don't care. Underage drinking citations will have zero negative impact on your application. Just be honest and write the applicable addendum.
