So jealous of your dual monitors! Will definitely be getting that setup for law school.

Welcome to my life for the last 3 months.
I think I'm constantly on the verge of getting fired for a lack of productivity these days.
My workload has been super varied these days - some days I'm slammed and others not so much. So now I'm lurking around to fill the time. Glad I'm not the only degenerate.

Same here. I tend to have small, low-priority projects during the summer, which results in me lurkin' instead of workin'.

Do you guys have jobs in the legal field, or not so much?

Not so much. KJD who works over the summers.

Checking in! Excited about NYC but scared of COL. We'll have to see how the money plays out

I keep seeing the $85,964 figure on the OP and dying a little inside. NYU is probably my top choice, but that's twice the starting salary for a PI attorney (which is what I want to be). Oof.

Same. Are you applying for RTK? I am, though not terribly optimistic.

Also - slippin_jimmy and BenWyatt's avatars in the same thread make me irrationally happy

I'm applying AnBryce and I think I have a pretty good shot at it. (Of course, I say this with no idea what the other applicants are like, I just know that I've overcome some insane adversity in my life.)

I remember reading your PS when you posted it, I definitely think you have a shot! AnBryce is mostly for people who have experienced adversity, right? I wasn't planning on applying - I'm the second person/first woman in my family to go to grad school, but I've still had a pretty cushy life..

Good luck! I think it'd be awesome if you got it.
