Retweet! Like my family and friends are lit every single time I get into a new school - even if it’s one I no longer care about.

Literally my life.

Although my favorite part was my weird estranged lawyer uncle who called me after years spent ignoring me to try and convince me Harvard was the better choice.

I really want to go to yale since I could live with my parents (lol sad) if it wasn't for this sweet saving on COA, I would just take the T-14 offering the most $$$ but yale is incredibly close to home so I had to apply

I certainly don't. I think that weird uncle and I are the only people back at least five generations to have attended any form of higher education. But, in my case, that makes my family members more expectant. A lot of them felt robbed of the opportunity to do "big and important things," so they want to get some of that vicarious glory. When I graduated at the top of my undergrad class with an award for that year's best thesis, my dad looked at me and said he wasn't proud and later went on to lament that I wasn't pursuing my kindergarten dream of microbiology. :/

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

My family still thinks I should get a PhD. My Yale app has been delayed because my professor writing my recommendation keeps trying to convince me to get a JD/PhD... she's convinced I'll be bored with a JD because I know math.

Her dad is a Nobel Prize winner and so is her husband, so I think she has a slightly skewed idea of normal.
