Windsor MIT '22, Harvard College Advisor

I am the half of LSD that didn't take the LSAT, or go to law school (Sorry about that). But I did go to MIT business school while surrounded by law students and lawyers, so I am somewhat qualified to talk about the intricacies of law school apps and finances.

Windsor (the dog) didn't write this but he WAS a Resident Tutor and career advisor at Harvard College with me, so deserves some credit.

for example, only like 4/5 duke Rs today seems like a small number compared to the WL

I think it’s still a bit early for people to be giving up on LSD considering it’s such a slow cycle. That might be impacting numbers slightly, but wouldn’t think very much, if any.
