Product Description:
As dean of admissions at the University of Chicago Law School, Anna Ivey decided the fate of thousands of law school applicants. In this book-the first of its kind by a former law school admissions officer-she draws on her expertise to cover topics from the application and the essay to the interview and the recommendations, touching on hot-button issues like how much the LSAT, ethnicity, and age really matter. Offering an insider's advice on how to produce the very best application, this guide gives straight answers to questions such as:

• What kind of essay should I write to set me apart from the rest of the pack?
• Should I explain my low LSAT score, my D in chemistry, my attention deficit disorder, my time in rehab?
• Is law school worth the debt I'll face when I graduate?

Full of invaluable examples and anecdotes about real admissions decisions, The Ivey Guide to Law School Admissions is certain to become the new bible for would-be law students everywhere.

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Perfect for all needs
This was well done. Referred to it often and helped guide me through this process on many larger issues as well as what may seem to be minor issues.
I credit this book with my acceptance and making Law Review in my first year. Thank you.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Highly Recommended!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! Anna Ivey, former Dean of Admissions at The University of Chicago Law School, provides an insiders guide filled with practical advice for any aspiring law student. It's not too often you will come across a book written by someone from the "other side" of the application process telling you what they are looking for from you when applying to law school. I first started reading this book at the bookstore. To my surprise, I couldn't put it down and sat there reading for at least an hour! If you are planning to apply to law school read this book! You will not be disappointed!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A MUST READ!
This is a good book that gives helpful advice. It also points you into the right direction as far as the application process and what to expect. You may also want to look at Richard Montauk's most recently released guide and/ or the Princeton Review. These books offer information that you will not find it Ivey's book. However, this book is still provides quite a bit of useful information.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not so good
This book is not good. There are much better books that explain what is included in the book. I would only advise buying this book if you need help in writing a request for a recommendation letter because that is the only informative section in this book.
