    I seem to remember you started a law school blog. I’d love to read it but I can’t find a link to it. Please help!

    Thanks Kellie. You are right. I did start a law school blog. However, I decided to stop for many reasons. But I will use this blog to talk about law school, both my experience and how it relates to finances.

  3. Wow! Your law school application costs aren’t that bad at all. I spent so much money on Kaplan LSAT prep and then I ended up applying to 20+ schools that it was more like $3k-$4K.

    Well, it helps that I only applied to 2 schools last year, and 2 this year. The two fee waivers helped too.
