Description

Continuing their admissions season coverage, Branden & Jelena demystify the process of applying to law school and walk you through all the components of a successful application.

If you’re just starting the applications process or wondering what it takes to apply to law school, this episode is for you. And if you’re staring at a nearly-complete application and just can’t crack that personal statement, this episode is also for you.

1. What “rolling admissions” really means to you
2. Whether you should consider binding early decision programs
3. The secrets of the mysterious “academic index”
4. Why your LSAT score matters more than your GPA
5. How to choose a personal statement topic
6. When to submit an addendum
7. Whether or not you should write a diversity statement
8. When you should expect to start hearing back from law schools after you apply
9. ….and the one bad habit you should NOT develop after applying (but probably will)
