Pathway to Law participant \u201919<\/p>\n

What was your experience with the Pathway to Law Workshop?<\/strong>
I would not be where I am had I not gone to the Pathway to law school. When I first applied to law school I did it all wrong. I sent in my applications late, I have a bad resume and personal statement and I only applied to 2 schools. I didn’t know what I was doing and I did not get any acceptance letters but thankfully Kate Rosier saw something in my application to ASU. She called me and advised me that I should attend the Pathway to Law School.

During the program itself, I was able to grow my network immensely, and I made friends and mentors that I still have today. It was also at the program where I learned how to apply to law school and to give myself the best chance to get accepted with my LSAT score and GPA. Further, I learned for the first time about PLSI and just how important that would be for me.<\/p>\n\n

What information did you find most important in the Workshop (i.e. LSAT prep, personal statement building, etc) and why?<\/strong>
Not only were all the workshops extremely important to my applications down the road but to me the most important was just giving me some confidence and understanding about the process of applying to law school. As a first-generation law student, I had no idea what it would take to apply and get into law school.<\/p>\n\n

Would you recommend students interested in law to attend the Workshop?
<\/strong> Absolutely, at the minimum you will grow your network, eat great food, and make lasting memories.<\/p>\n\n

Do you have any tips for prospective students?<\/strong>
Make sure to ask for help and reach out to all those who offer help.<\/p>\n
