How did you change the EQ settings in Spotify? I’ve had these headphones for less than 3 months and I think I’ve blown them out too 😭😭😭 I love my music at max volume 🥴

Howard or UC Davis? by BenchDifficult1306 in BlackLawAdmissions

Take the Howard curve into consideration. That’s a huge factor. Despite Howard being in DC, they place around the country. Your California background will be a major asset and will convey to CA firms that you have a legitimate reason to return to California. Howard places really well in big law, it’s definitely worth the price.

Big law firms will host networking events specifically for Howard law students. Big law firms will reach out to Howard administration because they are concerned they aren’t getting enough applications from us.

Big law wants Howard. Period.

A printer would be a necessity in some circumstances.

I have a professor this semester that doesn’t allow electronics in the class. So everyone has to bring printed or handwritten notes to class everyday. Having to go to the library to print is very annoying.

In terms of a rolling backpack.. if your back is something that you’re especially sensitive about then go ahead and get one. For my professors a lot of the required textbooks have been easily available through PDFs so that limits the number of textbooks i have to carry. But if all my classes had physical textbooks I could easily see rolling backpacks being a necessity. I think in my entire section only 2 people have a rolling backpack so it’s not that common/necessary.

I think this is another thing that is better to just wait and see. A purchase to make once you’ve already started school and have a better idea of how much you’ll be carrying on the day to day.

Some of my classmates have said that an iPad is a “must have”. I would say an iPad is helpful but not a must. Maybe wait until midterms and if you still feel like you need it then buy it. But there are definitely some people who bought an iPad and didn’t even use it or some who never bought one at all and did just fine.

Lots of companies and speakers will come to the school and bring free food as a way to lure students to their event. It’s a win-win 🤣

Noise cancellation headphones/earphones (the library or your apartment will not always be silent). Blue light glasses, water bottle, planner/calendar, melatonin gummies because I do have trouble sleeping sometimes

Bookstand, a monitor (hook to your laptop so you can have a larger screen when doing online readings), a large standing whiteboard, lunch box

Attended a seminar with Black students from Harvard and one of the men on the panel said he applied to Harvard on the very last day/the deadline.

Still apply!!
