I would say average to mediocre softs for YS, but sufficient for rest of T14.The_Steppenwolf wrote:Okay, so by solid softs I mean:
I worked at a top local law firm for six months
I helped start a business think tank
I assisted a professor with a book he's publishing
Service Trip + semi-regular community service (mentoring, fundraisers, etc.)
I'm president of pre-law for my university
I'll graduate with honors, and I'm a member of several honors organizations
I've been to a few leadership camps
Involved in other organizations as well
But I know that for Y especially this is mediocre at best.
What do you guys think? Any word on the optional essays?
Thanks!
I would still app to Y S with those softs. Softs are relative to other students applying, not an absolute.im_blue wrote:I would say average to mediocre softs for YS, but sufficient for rest of T14.The_Steppenwolf wrote:Okay, so by solid softs I mean:
