Whatever it is, the way you tell your story in your personal statement and throughout your application packet can make all the difference.
It all begins with your “why”. Maybe you want to become a lawyer to help small businesses. Maybe you want to turn an adverse childhood experience into the fuel that drives you to help others experiencing similar circumstances. Or maybe you have another vision for yourself and how you will use your law degree to positively impact the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story in your personal story and through your other application materials can make all the difference. Don’t worry about sounding like a lawyer. Sound like you. There are thousands of law school applicants out there, but your story is what’s going to separate you from the rest. If you want to ensure that your personal statement is on the right track, the free resources below are a great place to start!
