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.

Can you imagine what a cancer cell looks like?
What a cancer cell is, is blockage. A bunch of cells getting together to block up your system. If you can imagine a cell, then imagine a bunch of cells all getting together to block up your arteries, your lungs, your heart, your kidneys, your gall bladder, and everything else from doing their jobs. Give them a color, a size, a shape, a texture, a smell, and a taste. Yes, a taste. Yuck, huh?
See, the purpose behind giving them an entity, which is what you just did, is so you can get rid of them. If you can't see (imagine) them, you can't get rid of them. Give them an entity, so that entity can dissolve or whatever you choose to happen to them in the paragraphs below.
Note: Keep in mind that nothing you visualize has to be exact. A layman doesn't know what a heart really looks like unless he or she studies it. The same with the kidneys, etc. Just do your best to visualize whatever you can and know that that is where the work will be accomplished.
What does it make you feel like when you first learn you have this little problem?
(And yes, we must think of cancer, or any other debilitating disease, as a *little problem*, so that we can deal with it. If we think it is a * huge, unable to be defeated* problem, we will have trouble thinking we can handle it, right?)
So, what does it make you feel like? A victim? Does it give you a *I can't do anything about this* feeling of despair? Do you have a *I know what comes next* thought pattern as you remember and visualize what has happened to your friends or family that has gone through this? Or do you think about the horror stories you've heard about or seen on TV?
My goodness, where does that get you? Agony, right? You don't want to be a victim, do you?
OK. Time to do something about it! Time to get on with the healing.
But what can you do? You're not a doctor? You don't know anything about healing? Well, even if you are a doctor, and even if you know some things about healing, this article will give you a new lease on life. It will help get you out of the victim mentality and into an *I can handle it* attitude.
So, are you ready? Great!
Here's a regiment for you that is easy to do, and you need to remember that you have to stick with it and be very consistent. Make sure you talk it over with your doctor, however, and let's hope he's a progressive doctor who knows how visualization can help bring miracles to the body.
Every morning before you take your medication, sit or lie down and relax for fifteen minutes. Start each session out by breathing slowly and counting on each exhale: 3 3 3 -- 2 2 2 -- 1 1 1. Then, 10 9 8, then 7 6 5, then 4 3 2, then 1 1 1.
Now that you are relaxed, visualize an outline of your body with all the cancer cells inside. Now, see those cancer cells begin to dissolve.
Note: Here's were we can be flexible. You can either see them dissolve, or see them float away, or see them burn up, or see them turn into smoke and disappear. Whatever works best for you, watch this process happen for fifteen minutes.
Repeat this process every mid-day, maybe around 1 p.m. or so, when your stomach has had a chance to process your lunch, and you aren't so tired. We don't want you to go to sleep while doing this, so maybe you will say something to yourself when you start to relax, like "My body is relaxed, but my mind is alert."
Repeat this fifteen minute process again at night, just before you go to sleep.
There, now you know what to do to help your body heal. Now, I will show you some things you can do to keep your mind healthy.
Sometimes, we worry without meaning to. What does worry bring? More worry. So, learn to be happy. What can happy do for you? Nothing bad. And that's very important. When you find yourself worrying, stop right there and smile. Then, continue on with what you were doing.
If you feel the need to be active, every morning have a regiment of walking around the house, or outside if you like, for fifteen minutes. The first five minutes, practice good breathing that gives your body a chance to heal. Breathe in four short breaths through your nose without letting it out. Then, on the exhale, breathe out your nose four short breaths. Do this for five minutes.
Then next five minutes, start each sentence out with *I am so happy and so very grateful, I have (am, can . . . Whatever). And be thankful for all that you list. Then the last five minutes, start each sentence out with *I am so happy and so very grateful, I have (am, can . . . Whatever) and list everything you want. This last list is your projection of everything you want coming to you. Be creative. Be happy for lots of money, lots of good health, lots of new things.
There, have we given your mind enough to work with? So, now it won't be burdened with the old *I'm sick and I'm going to die, and I have no control over my body* thought process? I mean, all this might have been true a minute ago when you had the old thought patterns. But now you have a chance to live life with you in control.
Remember this: If any thought like that comes along, chase it away with *I now release the pattern in my consciousness that is creating resistance to my good.*
Worry causes more diseased cells that cause blockages. Worry is to be avoided at all cost!
Editor's Note: If you cannot see or don't understand what visualization is all about, please read *What If Life Doesn't Hand You A Lemon? Imagine It Anyway!* http://www.tameyourbrain.com/lemon.htm
NOTE: You must keep up with your doctor's appointments. Do not, I repeat, do NOT expect this to take the place of regular doctor's visits. Let your doctor be a gauge of how well you are doing with your visualization. Feel good about this.
Please pass this on to a friend. Help them take away the feeling of helplessness.
