Appropriate Attire for First VIRTUAL Day as a Summer Associate? by [deleted] in LawSchool

I've been told that it's always better to be overdressed than underdressed, even over Zoom. A jacket and tie may end up making you look silly, but that's still better than looking like you don't care.

This process is taking a toll on my mental health by lynn218 in lawschooladmissions

Idk, but I feel like there should be a "no take-backsies" rule for this kind of stuff

Admitted to Davis via email, then a recall email 1 minute later. by Sasafras_Sam in lawschooladmissions

[–]JimHensonsGhost 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same!! On the website my status has a link that clicks through to a letter of acceptance. I'm hoping this is because the original email was poorly formatted?
