The most common question that I personally get asked is what you need to do to get into Harvard Law School, and I don't have a magic recipe of success for you.

But I do have a kind of general guidelines that need to be applied in your individual case.

Transition words & phrases

The key to getting into any top law school is demonstrating your individuality, your uniqueness for diversity and having that supported by concrete proof points that our work that you've done organizations you've been involved in tangible achievements, validation by of your academic and extracurricular strengths by third parties like Recommend Er's people who are very credible and can speak concrete Lee and it totally about the work that you've done in a way that they're showing your personal characteristics rather than just telling.

But in terms of Harvard Law School, specifically, you want to know the minor differences between a lot of these top schools.

So Harvard for sale, for instance, Harvard classes, you know, more than double the size of Yale's coming first year law school class on DDE.

That makes for a very different experience.

Your class sizes are smaller at Yale, and it Harvard, it's it's obviously much larger class.

If you're someone who's interested in business and networking, that might be an attraction to you.

Harvard also generally has a bigger, more scope to their academic offerings, classes that Yale Law School doesn't offer by virtue of its size and its professor's research interests.

Um, but they do simulate the small class environment by breaking their 560 so students into seven or eight sections that have, you know, 70 or 80 students each of them.

And those are the people that you take all of your first year law school classes, except for maybe one elective together with.

So you do simulate that type of tight knit group camaraderie.

So did you look for different things in different schools?

Something you might want to look at is the opportunity for interdisciplinary study.

Stanford is very open about allowing you to cross register.

It's just a little bit more bureaucratic and a little bit more difficult to align schedules between our business school, Harvard Law School or whatever other school you might want to cross register for classes that on Yale Law School, has a reputation for being much more academically inclined for people that want to go into nonprofit work or want to go on thio, the government lawyers or for a lot of clerkships, but a lot of people as well who want to get terminal terminal law degrees, S, J.

D's or other PhDs that, for instance, a PhD in statistics and law or business in law.

And we'll teach Andi have research specializations within those areas.

So a lot of people who go to Yale Law School I want to go on to become law professors on.

And that's something that you'll need to think about in terms of how you taylor your application in your candidacy to speak to that that type of audience, right?

 Your application needs to be a dialogue with the school rather than a monologue.
