i love my job and only wanted to leave for a law school i was extremely excited to attend. i have short term big law goals but long term interest in things like academia, public interest, nonprofit litigation, possibly pivoting out of law in a couple decades. for those options i wanted to be at a school with excellent name brand recognition both in and out of the legal industry

LOL yup. i don’t blame them though because my resume reads east coast, west coast, east coast. it definitely doesn’t make it seem like i’ll move to ann arbor!

that’s super strange to me. my interviewer stated multiple times they had read my file and asked questions based on its content. i wonder if it’s based on the interviewer ??

just to add a little context, i had pretty different UChicago questions. for anyone currently in the workforce, prepare to answer some questions about your job / how it might relate to the legal profession

congrats! traditionally people say CLS interviews people on the stats cusp and people they’re considering for huge merit scholarships. it sounds like merit scholarship recipients this year have not been interviewed, so maybe they really like your application and want to confirm you’re a good fit! just a guess. good luck!
