He doesn't really know who I am, but I don't see how this fact is germane to my living with him tbh.

You guys should sign a lease on an apartment and then send that signed lease to the HLS Admissions Office. To show them you are serious.

Also, I like this living arrangement.

Can we have a new poll now?

I have a suggestion:

How did you feel after your JS1?

1. Nailed it.
2. It was pretty good, but there were a few things I wish I would have said or not said.
3. Meh, I don't know. Not too good but not too bad.
4. I felt awkward and tense throughout what was a pretty bad interview, but managed to pull through.
5. Longest 15 minutes of my life.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

Thus leaving out all of us who haven't gotten a JS1 yet...

And thus informing us what to expect. I'm cool with it.
