A silly question about Personal Statements, Addendums, ETC.,

A silly question about Personal Statements, Addendums, ETC., ETC., ETC., YADA, YADA, YADA….

First, thank you ALL for your support…I love this forum..

Now, for the tough questions, does ANYONE know of ANYONE who beat the statistical odds with the LSAT score, had one hell of an amazing personal statement and received scholarship dollars for their efforts on this planet?

Does this scenario exist or am I in la la land?
La la land is fine. Just need to know.

Be mean. Be nice. It’s OK.

I'm sure they exist, but no one has told me in person that their PS got them anything. Maybe check your target schools on LSN for non-URM scholarships. I have seen some applicants that got really good money, but usually they were splitters or something, and had way more than a good PS. They would have work experience, extra curriculars, great LOR's, etc.
