Where should I go next fall? / Re: Tier 3 and 4 Acceptances and Rejections« on: July 11, 2006, 02:21:04 PM »
Is anyone on this thread on 1+ waitlists & willing to drop their current school if they get off any of their WL? I'm currently going to Chapman but if Loyola or USD calls my name, I'll go there in a heartbeat. Anyone else in a similar position?

Black Law Student Discussion Board / Re: Rap Music« on: July 11, 2006, 02:13:08 PM »I love gangsta rap from the 90s. Tupac did rap about money, cars and women but I think his music also had a lot of important messages about racism & the struggle(s) of black people in america. Changes was an amazing song as was Brenda had a baby. Other than Kanye West, I find all rap music that is played on the radio to be the same & boring. I'm sick of hearing rap consist of the same subject matter over & over again. The most creative rappers today (in my opinion) would have to be Nas, Jay-z, Eminem, Jay-z,& Common. All the rest are rapping about rims, women & money - that's all old news. Be creative. Agreed. I do think that the radio stations are partly to blame. However, many rappers (and musicians in general) tend to make music that will make them the most $$$. They make the desicion to make the music that will get the most air play and therefore the most money. Radio stations control what's being played on the radio so they are partly to blame but musicians shouldn't always be chasing the money. 84

Where should I go next fall? / Re: Should people with multiple LSAT scores re-apply due to new ABA policy?« on: July 11, 2006, 11:59:02 AM »What do you guys think about re-applying next year solely because of the new policy? Good idea/bad idea? Is it something that those of you with multiple LSAT scores would consider doing? Why or why not? I haven't emailed them directly but some people on this board have & some of my preferred schools said they would take the highest score according to the ABA's new suggestion. Of course, I would email the schools directly to find out for sure before making such a serious decision. At this time I am just contemplating re-applying & wondering if anyone else is in the same boat. 87

Where should I go next fall? / Should people with multiple LSAT scores re-apply due to new ABA policy?« on: July 10, 2006, 06:57:07 PM »
I have 2 LSAT scores that most law schools which I applied to averaged into one pretty average LSAT score. However, due to the ABA's "suggestion" that law schools take the highest LSAT score (& the fact that many law schools appear willing to do so), I am now seriously considering waiting a year & re-applying. I think that I'd have a much better chance of getting into a Southern CA tier 2 of my choice if those schools took my highest LSAT score.
What do you guys think about re-applying next year solely because of the new policy? Good idea/bad idea? Is it something that those of you with multiple LSAT scores would consider doing? Why or why not? Thanks!

What did San Diego say? 90
Wait List / Re: Waitlist & Housing« on: July 10, 2006, 06:45:53 PM »I actually signed a lease. But it seems unreasonable to pay for the entire year when I don't even stay there for one night If you signed a lease, my experience is that most places make you find someone to replace you. If you can't find someone to replace you, then you have to pay the rent until you do. |
