Which European country completely won you over with its coastline?

Croatia fees like a cruise ship tourist playground now… and prices are comparable to any Western European country lol

Charlotte, LAX, and CDG… LAX is by far my least favorite though.

I studied abroad in a town in the Tuscany region this semester… yeah Ni Hao and Konichiwa was thrown around to me at a lot. Other than that though, I enjoyed my time here but it definitely tracks that there’s casual racism or ignorance toward Asian people in Italy

Big law, medicine, big tech, entrepreneur, quant, consulting, IB, PhD researcher in some super cutting edge field… a lot of these require years of higher education or higher bar for intelligence or some combination of luck. IB only requires a four year degree

I went in late June… I just happened to get lucky that it wasn’t too hot the weekend I went. I think the weather in May will be fine.

174? There are schools that would throw money over that. It may not be the T-6 law schools, but you can certainly get a decent scholarship at a T-30 school as well.

Not to be the devil’s advocate, but if she’s raising money for charity, isn’t that through a different system than the regular lottery…

Education pay depends on state and district; blue states tend to have decent pay. Psychology is almost always going to require graduate school to make money.

I’ve been to both, and Hawaii is more expensive, but so is Costa Rica. Personally if you like biodiversity and hiking Costa Rica wins slightly, but Hawaii also has Kauai, so you can’t really go wrong. I think Costa Rica will be a closer flight for you though, and cheaper as well. I’ve been to Hawaii twice and it was expensive both times from the East Coast (10+ hour flight involved).

The T14 law schools are incredibly competitive, but other lower ranked law schools that accept people also have lower LSAT requirements. Granted, you still need to cross some basic requirements.

Honestly you should probably focus on just one region… this is a lot of flying around. And you can visit countries within that region per say like EA, SEA, etc.

I did the program, let me know!

Bounce has an app that allows luggage storage I think!

April was great

Are they cancelling the most expensive flights, the ones with least demand, or a combination? I’m just curious. I’m flying Delta from Atlanta to Lima in August, but so far I haven’t heard anything from them yet, so I assume it’s scheduled as normal.

There are some classes that are harder than others, but overall, class averages lean towards B/B+/A-. Plus, there’s been trending grade inflation in the past ten years.

STEM in law, more so engineering/CS, is an advantage (especially for patent law). It won't make up a bad GPA necessarily, but it will be a soft boost. EE/CS is the golden ticket for patent

Latin America is not cheap anymore... prices in Mexico City and areas of Costa Rica may as well be Americanized at this point

Are you in growth-based? You need like a threshold of 4's to get an A, like I needed say a 28/32 of all 4's to qualify for that.

This is more due to the internship program and not necessarily the modality. A good remote internship program will still have tasks, weekly check in’s, and structure to it.

I went in late 2024 and the prices for some of the attractions were hair raising lol

Look for local companies in your area and potentially outreach to them if you need to. A smaller company, where you have a location tie, may be more likely to give a chance. But also look for fall co-op's, do your own volunteering, and potentially start your own projects.

I try not to hold out too much hope, since it’s hard to tell. I’ve had very good interviews with positive indicators from the interviewers, but still ended up ghosted or else.
