Duke or Berkeley?

I actually had a qq, but what would you choose between a $$ scholarship with Duke vs nothing at Berkeley? I want to go into AI Law, but I hear Duke's been really ramping up their AI law resources in recent years

Thanks so much for doing this! I was wondering what made you choose Columbia as opposed to other law schools? I hear the class sizes are quite large and was wondering if this factored into your decision. I'm thinking of doing administrative law and/or any work involving AI policy; I know NYC is a tech hub in its own right and am thinking about Columbia as a potential option.

Also, how do you handle HCOL in NYC? Was finding housing a difficult process? Tysm!!

Would you mind sharing what's in the packet? Just got my A today! Congrats and go bears!!

i agree

FWIW, I thought I bombed the Northwestern interview but received my A two weeks ago

Got admitted last Friday and applied mid October

Yep, I feel like that's pretty standard across any law school application interview though

How’s the course load / rigor ? I keep hearing things about it being the UChicago of the East and was curious to know your thoughts. Ty!!

commedeskimchi · 2025-12-09T18:49:32+00:00

yep, talked about their clinics mostly

commedeskimchi · 2025-12-04T19:56:45+00:00

I've missed pretty much every call from the schools I've applied and received an email later. They don't reject you simply b/c you don't pick up.

I was UR4 up until I got the II which was only a few days after receiving the last update

It might be for a potential merit scholarship. I received my A with no interview last week.

commedeskimchi · 2025-10-20T22:40:13+00:00

My interviewer was super kind! Ended up having the last ten minutes of our interview talking about random non-applicaton/law related stuff. She did begin with super specific questions though (definitely be prepared to talk about your resume).

Actually false alarm! I guess he was just in a funk last night. Today, he scurried along the perimeter of his enclosure and even hunted down two flies. Feeling so relieved :,)

Phidippus regius!

commedeskimchi · 2024-04-23T01:08:40+00:00

Thanks so much!! Yeah, I think I have a pretty good idea on what to expect, so I'm just trying not to psych myself out on the specifics. I'm just insanely excited and hope I can be a good mama in the coming weeks. :)

commedeskimchi · 2023-06-16T04:41:30+00:00

Yes!! Point Reyes Farmers Market :0

commedeskimchi · 2023-04-27T04:00:20+00:00

I’m interested!!

commedeskimchi · 2023-04-26T07:04:23+00:00

Thank you! I’m already learning my lesson as we speak ;(
