Law schools look for people who will excel at anything they take on and who will represent the school well in the community. They look for people who push themselves just a little bit harder; people who will have something different to add in the classroom setting.

i can't tell you how good it is to hear that... i get good grades (my cum. gpa is a 3.22 as of now, my soph. year) but sometimes i wonder how good it could be if i wasn't so involved with my sorority or apo, or dance marathon especially since that consumes so much of my time. but i do love being involved in these things, and i work my butt off for them, so it's good to know that in the end, it may pay off!
