Hi all!
I am an incoming 1L, who has unfortunately been waitlisted at all of the schools I applied to besides 1. I am in state for this school (T130), but was given no scholarship (way above medians) for an unknown reason. I am out of LSAT takes, so it is what it is. I don’t really love the school at all and I think it may be a hindrance to my goal practice areas (finance/tax).

So, I am hoping to transfer after 1L and was looking for some info. I am not super worried about the curve as many of my undergraduate profs taught and did tests/assignments similar to law school, so I’d say I’m decently familiar. I was wondering:

1. Do you do extra curriculars during 1L to "beef up" your application like for undergrad?

2. How would you recommend making professor connections for LORs in such a short period? About when did you ask?

3. Any other tips and tricks any of you recommend

For reference, I’m not really shooting for Harvard but would welcome it if the opportunity arose. I’m mainly aiming for KU, Mizzou, WashU, etc. I’d also welcome any school suggestions you guys have as well. I’ve also thought about doing a tax LLM after law school. I’m also aware that transfers usually don’t get much scholarship if any. I don’t have anyone to ask these things so I’d be super grateful for any advice/information! Thank you!!

Hi all!
I’m in my early 20’s, and have been on Jolessa since I was 16 (continuous most of the time). I did take ortho Tri cyclen and used patches for a short time before as well (caused severe bleeding).

When I was prescribed Jolessa originally, the doctor told me that I probably did have endometriosis but wouldn’t do surgery. I am honestly fine with this as my local healthcare is not good at all. Jolessa was great for the first 3 years, and then I would randomly start bleeding to varying degrees for months on end. When I asked my doctor about this, they essentially told me just to take multiple pills a day for essentially 3-5 days and go back to one per day whenever it went away. This helped like one time, now it has no effect whatsoever. When I let the doctor know this, they said to keep doing the same thing even though it no longer worked. So, I would randomly take weeks off and the bleeding would eventually die down but it took quite awhile.

My last bleeding "stint" lasted from thanksgiving 2025 to April 2026. I tried the multiple pill thing again and it didn’t work on several occasions. There ended up being a shipping delay so I was without any pills for 2 days, and then the bleeding died down over 3 weeks on its own.

Now, I’ve been bleeding again since May 1st. Never super heavy but enough to be annoying. I’m very tired of this (especially since healthcare is a dead end in my area) and I’m looking for something else. I don’t go to that doctor anymore, so I usually use wisp or nurx etc and just order whatever myself. I’ve been seeing that Yasmin might be a good new pill for me, and I was wondering if anyone has done this switch (or to something else) and how it worked out for them? For reference I’m only interested in pills and I have no intention of preserving fertility.

Sorry for the super long post, but thanks in advance!!

Pretty much the title. It was never in my top choices (would definitely consider with the right $$), but was really hoping to have it for scholarship reconsideration if needed. I’m above median/almost 75th LSAT and above 75th GPA. I did get an email saying my application appeared to be strong exactly two months ago but nothing since. People who applied after me have already been accepted for months now (per LSD). Anyone else?
