Advisor ripped apart my PS
So I took my 10th draft to my law school advisor and she told me it was garbage and I have to start from scratch. Is anybody willing to give me a second opinion on that? I just have no idea if that's really the best move. Willing to swap as well!

Re: Advisor ripped apart my PS
Stop taking things to your pre-law advisor in general. I have yet to hear a story about one that describes someone who knows anything about law school admissions.

Not to bite off another's thread but i also would love if someone could take a look at my ps. It is really not coming together likely because I am a not a big storyteller. Thanks in advance

I'd be willing to look, though I don't know how much help I'd be, considering the title of this thread lolLalalsat96 wrote:Not to bite off another's thread but i also would love if someone could take a look at my ps.

Even without having read the OP's PS, I would still be curious to know if those who DID read it agree with the pre-law advisor!

Re: Advisor ripped apart my PS
I read it. I didn't think it was garbage (OP is a good writer), but I do think she needed to reframe the PS (start from scratch) such that it's clear why she wants to go to law school.CoolerHandGreg wrote:Even without having read the OP's PS, I would still be curious to know if those who DID read it agree with the pre-law advisor!

Not to toot my own horn, but I've commented on people's PSes here on TLS and they have found it helpful. Reach out if you think I can help!
