I don't recall the specific context from this conversation (it was a while ago now), but you don't need to have special legal work experiences (or any particular work experience in general) to apply. I saw you posted in the LSAT Unplugged FB group as well, so I'm sure you'll get some answers there.
So should I write a why Harvard law essay unsolicited or it's gonna hurt me if I do? Other schools like Yale and Stanford has their own optional essay prompts to potentially boost a candidate's chance, Harvard doesn't. But i feel not enough just submit a PS and Diversity when I have done a 'why school' essay for every other school. Please advise.
@@pipersecretp3 Yeah, she did correct me on that - I'd been under the misconception that it was meant to be "Why Yale," but it isn't. (One of the great things about these discussions is that I learn a lot, too!) For those curious: law.yale.edu/admissions/jd-admissions/ask-asha/250-word-albatross
Requirement to have compelling reason is absurd -- what does a college kid know? It leads to a lot of "diversity" essays about how they are going to change the world blah blah blah. College kids cannot possibly have intelligently formed reasons.
He answers everything with “that makes a lot of sense” 😂
Well, that makes a lot of sense.
This makes a lot of sense! Thanks!
I checked the comments just to see how many people commented “that makes a lot of sense”
Great video though!
When you say speak of past experiences does it mean work ex? Because I don’t have legal experience.

But, did it make a lot of sense?

Great video full of nuggets
Are you implying the 250 word statement for Yale should be about why their school? Their representatives have said quite the opposite.
She said it just after I typed it. Yeah, don't do that.

New drinking game: Every time he says “that makes a lot of sense” you take a shot. 😂
I am on my 5th shot and count on "that makes a lot of sense"
