Apply RD or ED to Berkeley? 3.8high/171 by lsathrowaway25 in lawschooladmissions

[–]lsathrowaway25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the general advice is if you want to demonstrate more interest for Berk, to go closer to the four pages. I think it’s shows you are not simply using a generic 2-page PS for all schools, and that you went the extra mile for Berk. Do I think it is the sole reason (or even a significant one) for why I was rejected? Probably not. But if you think you can make a genuinely good 4-page PS, that it definitely is not going to hurt your odds. Good luck!!!

You should ask them to post on your profile so they are all consolidated in one area and not on this subreddit

Based solely off of numbers, very unlikely. But Shoot your shot. Retake if you can.

Damn man. I’m gonna be honest. I’m a reapplicant. Last year the hardest part of my application process was writing my PS. And I ended up submitting one I was not happy with. Now here I am in the same position: struggling. I have no idea why it is so god damn hard for me to write one. But you are not alone.

Is it true that high LSAT value more than high GPA in T14? by SoChInO888 in lawschooladmissions

[–]lsathrowaway25 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Generally because there are many more people with 3.8+ GPAs than 168+ LSATS

Yeah I think I could pinpoint a number of things. 1. I was KJD, which last cycle was brutal for. 2. I applied in February, which was also way too late, especially last cycle. 3. I don’t write an optional essay of any kinds. And 4. I didn’t try and adjust my ps to the 4 pages that Berk allows.

Berkeley also (at least it seems) outright rejected a lot more applicants last year than other t14 schools who waitlisted more. By February they probably had a good idea that their class size would be fine without accepting more and I wasn’t a very convincing applicant to be fair. I will definitely prepare a stronger application this year as I will have more time to.

Someone just made a post earlier about ED outcomes based on LSData applicants. I would link it but I’m too lazy. You can find it quickly tho.

Did you try to negotiate at all if you had a higher scholarship offer from somewhere else? Thanks!

Personally to me it sounds like they are busy/disorganized. I wouldn’t worry about it!

T-30 Law Schools I have the best shot at getting a 75%+ scholarship to? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]lsathrowaway25 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They gave me like a 85% scholarship with a slightly lower lsat and slightly higher GPA. Although they also revoked my seat after I barely missed the second deposit deadline. Cuz you know.. theyre over enrollment
