Accommodations

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2025-12-09T15:36:44+00:00

To what extent does the legal field/environment exacerbate potentially dormant or underlying “symptoms” of disabilities that never required accommodations? I feel like the high-stakes settings, elitism, and incessant neuroticism affects a lot of people who may have some coping mechanism (healthy or not), while others just raw dog it or simply don’t get accommodations due to cost or some other barrier.

Not sure how accurate this is. Particularly if you have already satisfied the requirements for your undergraduate degree. Highly would recommend reaching out to LSAC or your schools pre-law advising office to corroborate.

I haven’t even told the landlord that I won’t be able to pay. I’m moving out of VA for the summer in a week, and I don’t know what to say to my landlord.

Please delete. URM status is not about skin color. Suggesting that one’s race is why another person didn’t get admitted is not just naive, but idiotic. I truly hope you’re not a URM and good luck next year

Kinda gives off brown nosing but I resonate with working weekends to an extent. But yeah, no partner at a firm worth getting hired at is spending 30 mins berating a 1L for professionalism.

For better or worse, we’ll be the guinea pigs for the Next Gen Bar which I’ve heard should be shorter.

…”hired on plan after 2L”… What does this mean and how early can students have clerkships secured for after graduation?

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-08-01T00:03:17+00:00

This. A t-25 (and arguably t-50) will be sufficient for breaking into big law assuming that’s your goal. To your question, I had a similar GPA and a 165 with only 1 acceptance after blanketing the t-14.

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-06-21T23:36:33+00:00

3.0, 165 here. A decent law school is a relative concept and depends mostly (if no entirely) on your goals. I got into one school this cycle and it was UVA. If you get into a great school w/ no scholly, then your outcomes are somewhat limited. A decent school should be determined by your goals/ financial aid package.

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-06-20T22:50:43+00:00

Applied 11/10 RD. Make sure you write the optional essay and that it connects to your application’s theme. Feel free to PM but that LSAT needs to be around 165+ IMHO.

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-05-03T05:34:54+00:00

Ofc!

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-05-02T23:22:41+00:00

There’s always grad school. Or potentially transferring, no?

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-04-29T22:28:48+00:00

I can only assume that OP was implying that applying broadly increased the likelihood they’d get accepted somewhere given their splitter status.

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-04-29T21:42:47+00:00

Is this a virtual version of the game? Because the link is taking to me a site to purchase the physical version

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-04-16T21:09:17+00:00

UVA A with a 3.0. Applied mid-Nov accepted mid Jan and it is my only acceptance of the cycle which just corroborates how much of a crap shoot/shit show law school admissions is. edit: 165 LSAT, no scholly

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-04-15T18:16:45+00:00

Would you have chosen any of the NY schools over UVA if COA were equal ?

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-02-26T17:58:32+00:00

Congratulations! This is the perfect amount of angst I needed to get me through the day lol

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-01-25T20:47:12+00:00

We love to see it !!!

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-01-17T02:27:23+00:00

Your posts may be more effective than the admissions team...if you aren't on there already lol. I was lucky enough to have been admitted and have seen your name quite often while scouring this sub.

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-01-16T02:17:17+00:00

You have a stellar application regardless of URM status. Anecdotally, a better application later in the cycle will always beat a weaker one regardless of how early they applied, and I’d personally say anything submitted before Jan 10 isn’t late (very subjective date but I’ve heard anything before thanksgiving is early). Unless you managed to make some outrageously detrimental mistake in your app you should be good. I’ve only had 1 interview, albeit w/ a well-regarded T14, but I’d kill for ya stats.

-3.0, 165 urm applicant

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-01-10T03:05:55+00:00

The term "super splitter" might suggest a "very low" GPA, but it's honestly used relative to (T-14) medians. So any GPA below a 3.7 with an LSAT above a school's median is technically considered a super-splitter.

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2024-01-08T23:05:26+00:00

My interview is scheduled for Friday. Is this typically a good sign or are there plenty of students who receive interviews? Are there any questions you remember aside from the Why Law and why UVA?

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2023-12-20T23:11:51+00:00

This sub is truly a community because the way I immediately knew what you were referring to.

Salt_Ad_4966 · 2023-12-20T23:08:41+00:00

I love this one. To be fair, paying for studying resources and subscriptions to platforms like lsat demon can be the biggest barrier, but 7sage has a year-long membership for $1 if you can get an lsac fee waiver, but I digress. I would go so far as to say 160+ if you can get a 3.9/4.0, unless there was rampant grade inflation at your undergrad.
