I am approximately a year and a half away from graduating and I feel as though it is time for me to start getting my law school admission statement together. Are there any places I can visit on the web that can instruct me how to do this? I have looked at a lot of places yet when I arrive the site only contains general information. Is anyone working on their law degree currently or have already obtained their law degree?

I went to law school. It was a while ago, so I can't give you any specific essay resources, but from what I can recall, I wrote a personal narrative-type essay about a specific on-the-job experience that I felt highlighted my critical thinking skills, interest in the legal field, and ability to handle high-pressure work environments.

I recommend that keep you writing clear and simple. Lawyers hate flowery, creative writing, so nix the adjectives and keep it simple. Law is also a very conservative profession, so choose your topic wisely. Anything that makes you look quirky or rebellious would probably be frowned upon.

My sister just got her law degree a little over a year ago. I can ask her for some resources.

This helps me out some I am completely nervous. May I ask which school you attended?

Thanks that would be appreciated.

I went to University of Baltimore. The admissions process is definitely intense and nerve-wracking, but you're starting early, so you'll have a chance to figure it all out. Have you started any LSAT prep yet? That was, by far, the most stressful part for me.

If you have any questions as you get further along in the process, feel free to send me a PM.

I have not started the prepping for the LSAT yet but I plan to start this month. I have seen mixed reviews, some say its easy others say its hard, so I am a wreck over here.

I found the reading comprehension and logical reasoning sections were easy, but the analytic reasoning section was extremely difficult for me at first. I took a professional prep course, but feel like I got just as much out of the books I bought. Basically, I just practiced the analytic reasoning puzzles for a half hour every day. That was enough to get me a good score.

Which books did you purchase to study? I want to purchase the books this month. I am hoping to be prepared to take the test by December.

I used actual sample tests from the LSAC (these: https://os.lsac.org/Release/Shop/Publications.aspx), as well as the Princeton Review general LSAT guide.
