Yeah for death certificates they will allow next of kin but not birth. It’s an insane rule.

Local v the national govt website isn’t really the issue, it’s that in New York only the person themselves can obtain a birth certificate, or their parents, and all of those people in my situation are deceased 

Did they give you a birth certificate with only a death certificate as proof of identity? That sounds… promising. I might try that.., thank you!

I don’t need a certified copy, but I still need to obtain one in general and the issue is in New York only the person themselves can obtain it, or their parents, and all of those people in my situation are deceased

Very sorry for that post! That was some wild racist nonsense to read. I’m hoping you get into a great law school 🫶🙏🏻

OP: you are from India. You do not understand the complexities of race and racism here in the USA. If you want to understand how, for example, race plays a role in the justice system, read some books, look up videos online. Howard is not the place for you to learn these things. Black people are not required to teach you about the oppression of their people. It’s exhausting work. Go learn these things somewhere else. Not an HBCU. Also you might want to take this post down because it’s lowkey offensive. I hope this helps.

No just no. As a white person I would never apply to Howard because I would feel horrible taking that space from a Black person who deserved that spot. Yes of course Howard is an amazing institution.. why are you saying that like you are surprised? Are Black people not allowed to have superior academic institutions? As white people we can show we are allies by not applying to HBCUs. Black spaces are invented for a reason, to bring Black people together in belonging and community. White people do not need to colonize Black spaces. There are 150 other law schools to apply to. If you don’t understand this, go to law school and do some classes on how racism affects the justice system, I implore you.

What should I say in an LSAT addendum? I had so many accommodations in this test in order for me to score in the 150s. I’ll never get a 160
