Hi, I’m Rachel!
Do you ever feel overwhelmed to the point that you doubt your decision to apply to law school? Have you found yourself staring at a blank page for hours, waiting for the words to come, but they never do? Does it feel like the harder you think about what to write, the less you’re able to remember about your own life experiences?
You’re not alone. In fact, I think it’s safe to say that we’ve all been there at one point or another. I certainly have.
When I applied to law school, I felt completely overwhelmed. I was trying to juggle working a full-time job, studying for the LSAT, and completing applications, while still making time for family and friends and maintaining a long-distance relationship. I ultimately managed to get through the process successfully, with minimal battle scars.
I went to Boston College Law School on a merit-based scholarship. My three years of law school were challenging, fun, exhausting, and rewarding in so many ways. Although I wouldn’t change a single aspect of my experience because it got me to where I am today, it would have been nice to have had more guidance along the way.
Looking back, I recognize that applying to law school is much more straightforward than I realized when I was in the thick of it. Now, I often think about the information I wish I knew back then, the facts I wish I had, and the reassurance I definitely needed. I understand the pressure and anxiety that comes from the law school journey, and my goal is to take that stress away from applicants from the very beginning.
What if you didn’t have to feel stuck anymore? What if there was someone who would walk you through the process and encourage you every step of the way? Law school is hard enough, but the application process doesn’t have to be.
Every applicant is different and has his or her own set of strengths and weaknesses. Thus, I offer various packages which are completely customizable and tailored to meet each applicant’s specific needs. I work directly with every applicant to come up with a personalized approach, and I am available for guidance and support at every stage of the process. Each applicant’s personal and professional success and well-being is my top priority.
A lot of people come to me with decent ideas, but no idea how to move forward. Others have great ideas, but no clue how to execute. Most of these people are able to write a good essay on their own. But “good” is simply not enough. I work directly with all applicants to make sure they excel by highlighting their strengths, shining a positive light on any perceived weaknesses, and finding the best way to tell their stories.
Every person is unique and much more than just a number. I make sure that every person I work with stands out from the crowd and feels confident about their accomplishments and excited about their future.
You will have to make many difficult decisions in your personal and professional lives, but investing in yourself from the beginning of your legal career should not be one of them.
