How Applying to Law School Early Could Pay Off Many law schools use a rolling admissions process, meaning they evaluate applications as they come in and release admissions decisions, one by one. Because there are typically more spots available in a law school class at the beginning of the admissions process than at the end, the ideal time for J.D. hopefuls to apply to law school is in the fall or early winter, experts say. "I tell anyone planning on applying to law school to apply early," Dineen Pashoukos Wasylik, a partner and owner of DPW Legal, an intellectual property and appellate practice boutique law firm in Florida, wrote in an email. "The class just fills up, and it gets harder and harder to get in as time goes on." Wasylik, who earned her J.D. from Georgetown University, says she knows from experience that the timing of a J.D. application is critical. The first time she applied to law school, Wasilyk was in her senior year of college, and she submitted all her application materials at the last minute because she felt unsure about whether she wanted to attend law school at the beginning of her senior year. She only realized later in her senior year that law school was the logical next step for her, and says she was disappointed by the responses she got from law schools when she eventually did apply. Evaluate How These Soft Factors Might Impact Your Law School Chances A lot of factors go into consideration when an admissions committee evaluates a law school application. Many are obvious, such as GPA, LSAT scores, personal statement, letters of recommendation and resume. Many, however, are unaware that there are other aspects of an applicant that don't necessarily appear on any one document that may grant them a positive nudge when being assessed by law schools. We call these "soft factors," and if one of them is part of your life experience, you would do well to highlight it in your application to improve your chances. Highlight military service. Schools love veterans, as they typically have the discipline, maturity, and life experience that many applicants – especially those applying from college – may lack. However, as you'll see in almost any soft factor, not all veterans are viewed the same. Any decorations – especially the rarer ones, such as a Service Crosses or a Silver Star – would give you a leg up on other veterans, so you should discuss the circumstances surrounding any decoration in a personal statement or an optional essay. Additionally, commissioned service, or serving as an officer, is viewed more favorably, as it carries with it additional training and leadership experience. Showcase outstanding co-curricular achievements. If you have had a paper published in a recognized journal in your research field, or have won awards from recognized outside groups for your research, those are fantastic achievements to highlight on your law school application. Obviously, the more widely accepted and cited your paper is, the more weight it will carry with schools. Similarly, being a recipient of a prestigious scholarship would also work in your favor, the more exclusive the better. Play up work experience and relevant expertise. Think about how exclusive your position was to determine how much weight it will be given. Scooping ice cream is unlikely to move a needle much, but being a top-tier executive at a Fortune 500 company would be quite appealing to law school. The expertise, knowledge, determination and demonstrated work ethic are exactly what law schools expect from their students and alumni. Similarly, being even somewhat-widely known in your field, perhaps by coming up with a new treatment as a doctor or a new approach to a common problem, should also be highlighted. Finally, some relevant, extensive work experience in a field relevant to legal field, for example, working as a chemist for a biotech company who is now looking to get into IP law, could also reflect favorably with the admissions committee. Demonstrate your leadership experience in school. Even in college you’ll have a chance to shine in many capacities, but here too the specifics matter too. The more people relied on your guidance and the more pressure you were under, the better your application will look.

Fear is one of the first emotions that strikes after a cancer diagnosis. And if you're diagnosed with mesothelioma, fear becomes even stronger when the doctor starts talking about prognosis and statistics. Though treatment is certainly possible, the advanced stages of cancer � when mesothelioma is often diagnosed � are more challenging to treat, and the survival rate is poor. Also, because so many people with mesothelioma developed it because they were exposed to asbestos at work, the potential of a lengthy lawsuit looms, as do huge medical bills. So, getting fear in check is most important before you can move forward. Mesothelioma: Why People Are So Afraid People with a mesothelioma diagnosis are "truly scared," says Alan D. Valentine, MD, associate psychiatrist and associate professor of medicine (psychiatry) at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. There are several reasons for this. The late diagnosis and often poor prognosis are certainly factors, says Dr. Valentine. He also notes that the many advertisements that you see on television � from law firms promoting lawsuits and settlements � also give a certain graveness to the disease. In addition, mesothelioma doesn't get the publicity � or public support � that more common cancers like breast cancer do. "There's not a whole lot out there for them," says Valentine. "Put that together with a very scary diagnosis and I think that the anxiety and depression generally would be close to the top." People also might feel more isolated with this disease, he says, which can exacerbate fear. Mesothelioma: How to Calm Down and Cope Therapy and antidepressants are an option for helping to manage emotions like fear, anxiety, and depression that are common after a cancer diagnosis, says Valentine. While he says that patients should be screened to see if those therapies would offer benefit, they shouldn't automatically be prescribed. Be honest and realistic about what you're faced with, recommends Valentine. Accept your fear, anger, and other feelings � don't feel like you have to be strong, stoic, and always positive. "Sometimes, that's asking a lot," he says. Instead, concentrate on what needs to happen, says Valentine, rather than what could happen. Focus on business obligations, taking medications, and moving forward with treatment, instead of wondering if the worst will happen. Valentine also recommends these mechanisms to cope with fear from a cancer diagnosis and to stay calm: Practicing guided imagery, in which you lead your thoughts to soothing images Trying self-hypnosis Joining a support group Getting regular, light exercise � even walking or exercising in a chair Anything you can do to distract yourself and allow yourself to refocus on the task at hand rather than getting caught up in fear, anxiety, and "what ifs," Valentine says, will help you manage your fear. Mesothelioma: Dissipating Fear Paul S. Zygielbaum, from Santa Rosa, Calif., was in a bit of denial after he was diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma (in the abdomen) in 2004. Because he knew so little about his extremely rare type of cancer, he started doing research � and what he read didn't make him feel any better. "It was very difficult. I'd wake up at night just frightened, thinking 'what's going to happen?'" Finally, "I just said, look, I've got to go on with my life during this diagnosis." And one night his fear turned into an answer. "I just had this flash that I needed to live, and needed to do what I could to make sure that other people didn't go through this," he says. Mesothelioma: Moving Forward Zygielbaum has been living with his disease for five years. While he has no need for treatment now, he knows that he probably will again. And most likely he will face the same fear. But he keeps going. Zygielbaum dedicates a lot of time volunteering with the Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization and trying to get Congress to ban asbestos use in the United States. Zygielbaum approached his cancer like any other big problem in life. "I just felt like I needed to just deal with this in a problem-solving way." His logical approach, education about his cancer and treatment options, and a little laughter all helped him deal with his fear and move forward with his treatment � and his life.
