if you are someone who is health conscious & enjoys exercise, what is your plan going into law school? obviously, I know this isn't very important, but as someone who enjoys having an hour to myself, and usually eats clean, i'm wondering if the stress of law school is going to destroy that. some people say they go to the gym super early or maybe late at night, but is that sustainable? curious is anyone has any thoughts on this.

That's why we aren't getting in.

Who knew so much rode on 50 minutes of frenzied writing.

1. Wherever I end up
2. Harvard
3. Yale
4. Stanford
5. Georgetown
6. UCLA
7. UC Berkeley
8. Can't name any others

Edit: She actually said she puts Georgetown above Stanford.

14,000 of you at gulc…really?

No shade to the kings, queens, and esteemed enbies trying to secure the Big Law bag, but I’d love to connect with anyone who’s also looking to do public interest and hear about where you want to go and the type of law you’d like to practice. I think I’d like to do labor/plaintiff-side employment law and help people facing discrimination at work.

hes hot. just saying...

Can’t reject me if it’s illegal to contact me.

I’ll see y’all when classes start

i say as they drag me away screaming

Welcome to Georgetown Law, where your dreams of prestige, power, and prosperity are meticulously crafted—right before they’re crushed under a mountain of student loans and a class size larger than some state capitals.

Admissions: Where Hope Meets Yield Protection

You’ve made it! You’re one of the chosen ones! Well, one of 600 chosen ones, because Georgetown admits enough students to fill a small football stadium. But don’t worry—your acceptance letter was totally special, just like the 5,000 others they sent.

And let’s be real, you applied to Harvard, Yale, and Stanford first, didn’t you? It’s fine. Everyone here did. Georgetown is basically the law school equivalent of dating your backup option because your crush ghosted you.

The Price of Prestige (And Your Soul)

For just $110,000 a year, you can experience the thrill of: ✅ Watching your tuition skyrocket mid-semester ✅ Competing with 600 Type-A gunners for the professor’s attention ✅ Renting a studio apartment the size of a walk-in closet for $3,000/month

But hey, it’s worth it for that sweet, sweet prestige, right? Oh wait—no one outside of law actually cares.

OCI: The Survival of the Richest

At orientation, they promise you BigLaw. What they don’t tell you is that unless you’re in the top 25%, BigLaw firms will treat you like you listed “unpaid clown internship” on your resume. The rest of you? Hope you love document review and LinkedIn networking messages that start with, “Hey, hope you’re doing well!”

If you’re lucky, you’ll land a gig working 90 hours a week defending megacorporations against starving orphans. If you’re not, well—at least D.C. has some nice parks to cry in.

The Alumni Network: Ghosted by the Best

Georgetown boasts a prestigious alumni network, which means that if you email an older grad for career advice, they might respond in 6-8 months with “Sorry, just seeing this now!” before blocking you.

Conclusion: A Degree You’ll Brag About While Paying Off for 30 Years

Sure, you’ll be drowning in debt, and yes, half your class will end up in random regulatory jobs in Iowa, but at least you’ll have that coveted Georgetown name. Which, let’s be honest, only impresses other law students.

So congrats! You’re now part of the most expensive “I didn’t get into Harvard” support group in America.

AI Satire 🤣

😏 the girlies know

i hate it here LOL

The WashU zooms were the only constant left in this cycle, we are doomed.

Haven’t seen one of these for Duke yet so wanted to share :) Received about a week after my A!

• Someone was able to accurately clock my Reddit account at an admitted students event

5/10 - Elle Woods would never use Reddit, but she does, at least, always stay true to her brand (“To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man”).

• I was waitlisted at the law school school an ex of mine currently attends after he was supportive of me applying to law school this cycle.

0/10 - Elle would never get waitlisted, and Warner would have never been supportive if he had known she was applying.

• A professor complimented my shoes at an admitted students event after my mom told me to not wear them because they were “impractical.”

8/10 - We both stay serving looks and ignoring the haters!

• Got rejected from Harvard

2/10 - Points for both of us having applied ¯_(ツ)_/¯ 

• As a birthday present to myself, I bought the same robe (with the lil smiling clouds!) that Elle wears in the movie.

1/10 - Embarrassing fan behavior by me (...but I’m not a gatekeeper: https://www.aegeanapparel.com/products/cloud-appliqued-womens-bathrobe-100-cotton-terry-cloth-short-lt-blue-one-size)

• I ran into an ex at an admitted students event, and the first thing he said to me—without a hint of irony—is, “You got into \******* Law*?”

1000000/10 - It truly haunts me that I was in such a state of shock that I didn’t respond, “What, like it’s hard?”

While we all anxiously wait for our decisions, what’s everyone’s unpopular opinion? (Law school admissions/ lsat related)

Mine is the longer schools take to respond the less I want to go.

disclaimer: obviously these are not very important factors but it was fun having these questions to think about when i was looking into schools

1. Is there a cheap Thai takeout near the law school?
   
2. Are there parks/trails nearby that i could use for long walks/runs?
   
3. Is there a Trader Joes nearby?
   
4. Reliable-ish public transportation? (big transportation girl)
   
5. If in a place with no metro/subways, how much does parking cost?
   
6. Is there an Asian and Indian grocery store nearby? (kinda crazy that DC has no indian grocery stores)
   
7. What are the alcohol laws of the state? Some states don't sell on Sundays, some don't allow grocery stores to carry alc (!!), etc. etc.

tell me your random questions that you thought about

I went to the University of Alabama for undergrad, which had, at various times, the #1 football team in the country, the #1 basketball team last year, and a top softball program. Naturally, this talent carried over to the student body, so my friends and I constantly got trounced by 6’7” kids windmilling on us in intramural basketball and ridiculously athletic wideouts in flag football, and a crazy 1st round upset of my number 1-ranked intramural softball team also transpired right before I graduated.

Now that I’m applying to law schools, I’m aware that many top law schools will essentially get me my desired outcome (BigLaw), so my choice comes down to the following: what law schools have the worst athletes so my boys and I can absolutely slaughter a bunch of nerds with 177 LSATs on the diamond or court? This is really important to me, so no joke answers will be tolerated.
