Penn Law c/o 2020 - WAITLIST Forum

[34iplaw]

still not sure what theme to write for the 2 pg essay...
I have already wrote why penn and LOCI.
What other topics can we use for this 2 pg essay?

It seems to be entirely open-ended, so I suppose whatever. Just keep in mind it should reflect you are a strong writer and perhaps give some insight into something you find interesting. I'm far from an expert, but I'm more than willing to give you my honest feedback on your ideas for the essay as well as share what I did for mine. That said, mine fell into that why penn/loci category.

Thanks I did, actually. I sent an LOCI last week of April, I believe. It was the only LOCI I sent though, and I just updated them on what I'd been working on at my job and included a GPA addendum that I should've sent in with my original app.

That was me! PM if you have questions/I can help. Last couple of PMs I've sent have been stuck in my outbox though - anyone know what that's about? I haven't been super active on here but am happy to help. So relieved to be done with this process and pulling for everyone!

Are you a URM? And what did you do in terms of showing interest?

Is it more like an interview, or is it a chance for us to ask questions?

I am fairly certain it would be a chance for you to ask real questions, because it actually tells you to go in with prepared Qs.
I think it is similar to what I have done at Michigan. To be honest, I really don't think those interviews make a huge difference - you would have been a good candidate if they did not reject you outright, and whether you get accepted really depends on how much interest you show/what your demographic twin is doing.

Definitely agree with you, but I think it can only help, right?

I'll be having mine later in the week and will be happy to report on the experience. Also can answer questions via PM.

Yes it can only help in the sense it helps "demonstrate continued interest." So it is like sending in a longer LOCI.
