Advising Events for October 2012

PreLaw Program October Roundtable: Personal Statement Workshop

The Personal Statement is a very important part of the law school application. However, many students have a difficult time knowing how to compose it properly. Since the Personal Statement is a law school's only opportunity to see more of you than test scores and transcripts, it is important to make a good impression. Come learn from the experts about how to make your personal statement the best it can be. Invited panel members will include:

Aperna Sherman, Former Law School Admissions Council member, TTU School of Law Librarian
Kathleen Gillis, Director of TTU Writing Center
Jay Killough, Director of University Career Services
Vickie Sutton, Professor, TTU School of Law, Former Law School Admissions Council member

This roundtable will be different from past roundtables in that it will be a very hands on workshop. If you have a draft of your personal statement, this would be a great opportunity to bring a copy (or 2 or 3) and get feedback from the pros. If you haven't started your personal statement yet, don't worry, this will be a great first step in the right direction for you as well!
