"For
those whose life experiences distinguish them from the vast majority of law students,
Anthony's guide shows you how to construct an application that reflects who you
are, the adversity you have overcome, and the distinctive contribution you will
make in law school and to the world. Rather than promoting gimmicks, Anthony's
guide illustrates how to present your triumphs and how to use substantiating evidence
to build upon and contextualize your grades and LSAT scores to make a compelling
case for why you merit admission." Michaele
N. Turnage Young, J.D., Harvard Law School; Attorney at Law, Skadden, Arps,
Slate, Meagher, & Flom LLP "Anthony
Solana's guide to law school gave me the confidence I was lacking when applying
to law schools." Ivone Falk, UC-San Diego student, law school
applicant. "Thanks
to Anthony's guide, I was able to look at the application components of other
applicants of color, get an idea of how to tailor my own application and maximize
my chances at the top law schools in the country. This fall I will be attending
Stanford Law School." Marina Torres, J.D. Candidate, Stanford
Law School "When
I decided to apply to law school, I was appalled by the lack of information on
how to properly prepare a winning application packet. Commercial guides claiming
to provide information on the application process and crammed full of sample
essays proved useless as they are tailored toward an audience with a very
different perspective than mine (a first generation immigrant and first in my
family to go to graduate school), and did not provide any information not available
on the LSAC website. After several weeks of research, I felt extremely discouraged
by the lack of materials tailored toward people of color and individuals who had
overcome adversity. All that changed when I found Anthonys guide. Anthonys
guide provided me with detailed instructions on the application process, pit falls
to avoid and, most importantly, sample personal statements from current law students
who had overcome adversity. This guide not only helped me understand the process,
but the real-life, heartwarming stories contained in the sample personal statements
provided the type of encouragement no commercial outline could ever provide. I
am forever in debt to Anthony for his wonderful guide. I can honestly say that
I would not have been as successful on my application process without it."
Manfred Perera, J.D., Hastings
College of the Law; future associate at Foley & Lardner LLP "Anthony's
manual was by far the most helpful and insightful reading material I encountered
during my law school application process or since. I read and reread pages of
it at a time. I used it as the basis for my own application strategy. I definitely
don't think I would have gotten the positive responses from law schools that I
got without using the tips from this manual. I refer other applicants to it all
the time and advise them to read it cover to cover before they start the process"
Alina Ball, J.D. Candidate, UCLA School of Law "This
guide was key in my quest for admission to law school. It does a great deal for
evening the playing field for the historically disadvantaged in their quest for
a law education. If you want to get into law school, download the guide, and then
do everything in it." Stephen
Abreu, J.D., UC-Davis King Hall School of Law; associate at Morgan Lewis LLP "Your
website made me realize how much work just applying to law school is. I felt like
I began the process without much direction and your guide helped me get organized.
I wish I had found it a year earlier! Also having you personally look at my personal
statement was a big help. You cleared up some doubts and made me rethink the focus
of my statement. It felt like I had an older brother on my team."
