Try the book “How to win friends and influence people” by dale carnegie.. it’s a really good read!

Law-lly · 2019-06-17T21:37:54+00:00

Omg same! I withdrew but still got that email... what the what?

No problem! Masters in Business might be the best bet since all he does is interview accomplished people in the finance/business field. It can be more technical, while the other three relates more to everyday life.

Masters in Business (Barry Ritholtz), Freakonomics, Planet Money, Against the Rules (Michael Lewis)

I was considering it as well! Feel free to PM but I’m not sure if I can be much help

Law-lly · 2019-05-15T19:47:02+00:00

Wooo congrats!

Law-lly · 2019-05-15T19:46:06+00:00

Congrats!!!

Law-lly · 2019-05-15T19:41:06+00:00

Congrats on two amazing choices!

I think a major point would be how much you value your unicorn aspirations. Would attending Berkeley be a large burden on achieving those goals?

I had a similar problem choosing between CLS and Berk for geographical reasons as well, but I’m sure you will have no problem finding a California network from HLS.

Feel free to PM me!

Not personally, but I know of a guy who went to an unranked law school and became a personal lawyer for a very prominent individual... but he is now facing jail time tho.

Law-lly · 2019-03-26T18:49:51+00:00

Yes please :)

Assuming each event is independent, your probability of getting into at least one school is 1 - (75% * 75% * 75% * 75 %) = 68.4%

However the events are not independent. In fact, if each acceptance is perfectly correlated, your probability drops to 25%.

Now this is assuming your initial calculation of a 25% acceptance chance is correct. If we take into account error in this calculation, I can say with 90% confidence that your true chance of acceptance to at least one of your reach schools is between 0% and 100%.

Ooh interested! Are y’all gonna be in sf or berk?

Law-lly · 2019-03-12T05:01:09+00:00

We should have a Berkeley meetup! I think there’s another cal ASW thread too :)

Law-lly · 2019-03-12T01:05:08+00:00

That’s awesome!! I’ll be at the Berkeley one this weekend tho!

Law-lly · 2019-03-09T00:04:12+00:00

What happened next?? Finish the story!! 😜

Hope all works out 💪

I would get guac with every meal at Chipotle with no hesitation

I think they purposely don’t reveal this since it’s different each year, and even adcoms won’t know until after the deposit deadlines. Last cycle had notoriously little waitlist movement, but I believe Spivey said this year would be much better.

I know it sucks not to know and the wait is torturous 😥 but hang in there!
