3 Weeks and Counting

Over the last year and a half I've gone through all the insanity that getting into law school requires. There were a lot of times that I wanted help or needed to ask a question or get some advice, but I found it pretty hard to actually get the assistance I needed. I figured that I could share my experience with others and hopefully answer someones questions about law school as well as the lengthy process of getting accepted to law school. I'll try not to bore everyone to death and hopefully others will feel free to ask questions or offer advice to me and others. I will be attending Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas starting 21st. While that's the first official day of class, I have two days of mandatory orientation on the 18th and 19th, so I will attempt to post everything that I did and wish I would have done since I started the process of applying. I'll discuss the LSAT, the LSAC, letters of recommendation, resumes and all that fun stuff and how I finally decided on SMU. Once the school year starts, I'll try and update as often as possible, time permitting so that everyone can feel my pain (and my wife's) as I get a quick reality check as a 1L. For those of you who aren't familiar with law school lingo (I'm one of you by the way), a 1L is a first year law student, 2L is a second and a third year is a 3L. Please feel free to post and make comments or bring up questions and suggestions, hope you enjoy.
