Why Law School?
While more and more young people attend college and go on to higher education, law school is one of the many graduate school choices. Law school is expensive and time-consuming and therefore a substantial commitment. Prospective law school applicants must do some significant soul searching in order to make the right choices. Our one-on-one consultation will provide a thorough examination of WHY law school. Most can imagine how important the Law School Personal Statement portion of the application is. We’ll attempt to minimize some of the stress with expert recommendations and assistance in writing your personal statement.
How we help with Law School Applications
Guidance and Consultation for the Essay – Law school applications require essays but these are quite different from those you wrote for your undergrad college applications. Law schools are interested in knowing what leads you to apply, what relevant experience you have, and what you plan to do with your law degree. Law schools will also be interested in knowing what you can add to the student body. And here’s a little tip: being an excellent writer is key to a successful essay.
Which Law Schools are Right for You? – While you are more than your GPA or LSAT score, these factors are very important in deciding which law schools are your targets. We help you consider which law schools are best for you. With mindful analysis, we will examine your undergraduate background, your experiences since your college days, areas of academic interest, and career goals. By doing so, you’ll gain a list of law schools which best suit you.
Special Programs – Some law schools offer more than three years on their campus. If you have a special interest beyond the norm, let us know and we will discuss the appropriate programs to fit your needs.
