I wish I was a nepo baby

I really, really wish I were born in the lap to privillege and wealth. If I were rich, I'd be super grateful for what I had and would be in a high-profile nonprofit position, which seems to be the natural order of things in that industry. The satisfaction of having to earn my place in the world with merit and luck will never displace my secret desire to have a great life handed to me.

Hey all, I’m slightly leaning towards R and R. I hope to do impact litigation one day and unfortunately it seems fairly gate-kept which really sucks. I’m so grateful for my acceptances so far and the school I deposited at has interesting clinics, and gave me a very good scholarship. But it was a safety tbh and I’m afraid it won’t take me where I need to go which is gate kept by clerkships and is dominated by t14s.

I also don’t feel super proud about this whole process I’ve felt super stressed between loan changes, job searching, family issues, work problems etc. it’s been a tough year and I applied locally which set me back a lot.

My only problem is I would need to find a new job. My current job is working night shift as court staff and it’s been a very stressful environment with low pay and bad supervisors. I can’t even transfer units because you need informal permission to do so and management will definitely try to sabotage transferring.

I have one LSAT attempt left, my best score is a 167. I would need a 170 plus.

Does job hopping look bad to law school admissions ?

I'm going home.

Y'all, I refuse to take out private loans unless it's a T14. If grad plus loans come back, maybe I'll transfer, but I'm a New Yorker, and rent is too expensive to pay sticker. Currently working on LOCIs still, the dream is still NYU and CLS and the bigger dream is impact lit
