I did. Everything I've read tells me it's worth the time if you're borderline/really want to go to Notre Dame.
The red dot on LSN also wrote one.

Received a fee waiver today. Wasn't going to apply as it's a bit of a reach with my 168/3.06 but might as well, right? Or am I auto-ding-territory?

Wrote the Why Notre Dame essay today, and also got a CRS fee waiver today! kind of weird that I had every intention to apply yesterday but was too lazy to write that essay until today, and it saved me $$$ ! Officially submitted, so the waiting game begins for me ...

Got a letter from NDLS Office of Admissions, had a mini heart attack while I tore it open, and the first sentence read, "Dear Paraflam, I enjoyed meeting you at XXX Law School Fair..."
