Student activities do not seem to help as much as I would have liked. What opens doors are a strong GPA, good LSAT results, and really meaningful letters of recommendation. A letter from your senator or a senior judge won't count for much unless the
person writing the rec knows you well and can point to specifics that add substance to the letter. Student activities can enhance a strong application but will not compensate for a low GPA or unfortunate LSAT score. Concentrate on the cake and don't rely on the iceing. Getting in is not really that hard, but you do need to present credentials that Law Schools care about.
