Re: TLS c/o 2021 Applicants Thread
This ALMOST happened to me so now it's got me thinking... what would happen if we get a ticket *after* all our apps have been submitted? Do we write an addendum about it? What about the places we've been accepted to? I was pulled over this past weekend for improper lane passing but the officer just let me go because he said I seemed genuinely apologetic and I have nothing on my record, but now I'm wondering what I would have to do if I had gotten a ticket.

I hope the rumors about Y releasing their first wave is true. It would also be great to get a JS1 and/or a S decision. Pretty much an Xmas miracle.Bush v.

Y'all can hold onto your dings for 2018. 2017 doesn't need any more help being a dumpster fire.

Re: TLS c/o 2021 Applicants Thread
Do you guys know if submitting a "Why X" essay after my application is already under review would look good/bad/weird? I'm getting antsy, esp after being put on hold at Cornell and Georgetown, and want to enhance my apps if possible at this point.

Does anyone else feel a little awkward when being admitted over the phone? I want to convey how excited I am but also be professional, and it ends up a weird, strained mix of the two.

For me it's awkward because I'm at work and I don't want anyone to know I'm applying to ls...I end up using very vague descriptors and going "Wow! I'm so excited about that thing you just said!"OtisRedding24 wrote:subpoenacolada wrote:Does anyone else feel a little awkward when being admitted over the phone?

Yeah, I like jog out of my office to take calls now! This is the most I've answered calls from random numbers in my life. LOL

I don't answer my phone unless I am expecting a call (like an interview) or recognize the number (and it would have to be a relative or someone who is watching over my offspring while I am at work.) Period. End of story. They aren't going to mark down your scholarships for not picking up!subpoenacolada wrote:Does anyone else feel a little awkward when being admitted over the phone?

Nope. The largest scholarship amount I got last cycle was from the highest ranked school I got into. I also believe I got nothing from 2 of my lowest ranked schools, if I remember correctlyandysimbi wrote:Would getting no money from a school suggest you won't get any from higher ranked ones either (assuming acceptances)?

Hi all, I just received a job offer at an impressive law firm and of course I want the admissions officers where I've applied to be aware of that development. Does anyone know how to go about doing that? Should I just send them an email saying that I have this new job?

Are you planning to take the job and then leave in 8 months? Not sure how schools would look at that, perhaps someone else can chime in.of2273 wrote:Hi all, I just received a job offer at an impressive law firm and of course I want the admissions officers where I've applied to be aware of that development.

But if you take it and want to let schools know, I'd just re-work your resume and then email admissions asking them to append your updated resume to your file to reflect a change in employment.

Yes, I do plan on accepting it. The firm is aware that I intend on going to law school in the fall and that I'm only available for 8 months. Why do you think that would look a certain way to schools?Bojack93 wrote:Are you planning to take the job and then leave in 8 months?

Took my first PT in 3 months and got a better score than my reportable one.
