sounds like the general requirements for most majors at W&M...we have to do several 400 level classes, plus at least one colloquium, and generally an independent study (25-50pgs) or thesis (40-100pgs)

Yeah, we've got that for major's too.. some number of upper division in our major plus a seminar class and paper (25+pages). This is in addition to that.

It's a state school, we don't have much money and many professors, so.. we make do. :)

Studying for the LSAT / Re: Acing the LSAT (advice for people looking to score 90th percentile plus)

"I think an important thing that most testtakers fail to consider is that it is a multiple choice exam, meaning that one of the choices must be correct while the other four are clearly wrong."

Woah woah woah.  :o

I totally didn't think of that when I was taking the test!

Please, sell me something!

The sit-in-the-front-answer-all-questions, be-involoved in everything kinda person

I'd probably be vocal, but not in the I'll-answer-even-if-i'm-wrong sense. Definitely not the be involved in everything kinda thing.. most of that was sophomore/junior year. I now sit on my ass and geek out on the computer most of the day.

Most of that was just trying to make up for my obvious lack in GPA and LSAT.

If there's no record, why tell them? If there is, well, it's better than getting caught later on about trying to cover it up.

Some apps ask for charges, not just convictions.

If there's no record of the charges, how can they ever know? :)

If they're good LoR's, send them. Send them all the stuff you can.. can't hurt, right?

I don't think it costs you another $12. I think they're forwarded along.
