First, thanks to everyone for great replies on this subject. I have a few more questions though. I'm starting my applications, and have no clue what to write for my personal statement. Most of the schools have guidelines like "why you think you would make a great law student," "why you want to go to law school," "tell about yourself"....I am having the worst case of writers block EVER!
Also about the letters of recommendation, my favorite professor can't write me one because he had to leave in the middle of the semester and will not be returning. (Long story beyond that, but there is no way he can write me a letter.) So now I have no clue, other than the Director of Greek Life, whom I am close with and have worked with for 2 years on Panhellenic. Should I ask my academic advisor? Someone suggested that I ask the head of the dept. where my fave professor taught to write me one, if I explain the situation. It's just that I haven't made real close ties with any other professors at school because lectures are so impersonal. I've never taken a class with a prof more than once, because they just don't teach enough different classes. So who do you think I should ask? Advisor, or head of dept.?
