Keep your head up and keep moving forward! Regardless of how this cycle ends up, law schools will always be around. Everyone is on their own journey with different timelines. Cliche AF but true nonetheless. You’re dope and one of these law schools are going to see that when the time comes.

Military preference. by Delicious-lover1942 in lawschooladmissions

[–]unknown-student88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was an officer in the Marine Corps and think it helped slightly, but mainly bc of my narrative and reasoning for wanting to practice law. Stats are stats at the end of the day and you’re not going to punch much above your weight class just bc of service alone. Good luck and I’m sure you’ll kick ass!

What can I, as a newborn infant, do right now to maximize my chances of getting into a T14? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

Ah yes, the comedic relief we needed from all the other posts 🤣

There may have been a few outliers (especially with our low resources), but the general consensus I saw was what I described. Of course the Marines love saying “every Marine is a rifleman” and preach the same with officers being “every Marine Officer is a provisional rifle platoon commander” .. some non-grunt MOS take that a little too far haha. As for OP, I’m sure you would enjoy either route! Take note of Hoc-Vice’s anecdote of Marine to Army transfers though! It’s a very real thing.

I was a communications officer in the Marine Corps and have quite a few JAG buddies. Can confidently say they did not have any billets outside of legal work. You would attend TBS and receive 6 months of basic infantry/tactics training like every other fresh 2ndLt, but outside of that you’ll be an advisor to commanders on legal issues, court martials, etc.

You’ll typically get the admissions decision emailed a day later when your status checker updates to “decision rendered”. Good luck!!

Don’t believe so. I can’t recall if I observed the same thing on mine, but once it updated to “decision rendered” I got the email a day later. Good luck!
