Description

Tajira McCoy and her crew of law school admissions deans return for their most recent monthly discussion. This time, they dive into all things related to the written aspects of an application.

In your personal statement, do you have to write about why you want to be a lawyer?

Should you tailor your personal statement for every school?

When the instructions say “two pages max,” what happens if you go just a bit long?

How do you stand out on your statements (or is it even advisable to try and “stand out”)?

All that—and more!—in this month’s discussion.
