A quick definition of heretofore:

Term: HERETOFORE

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Heretofore is an adverb that means "up to now" or "before this time". Example: The company had heretofore been successful, but now they are facing financial difficulties. Explanation: This example shows that up until now, the company had been doing well, but something has changed and they are now struggling. The use of "heretofore" emphasizes the contrast between the past success and the current difficulties.

@NemoPropheta: lmfao we got law schools sending out typos and this bitch is over here thinking an informal blog post is indicative of the writing ability of one of the top admissions consulting services with a track record proven over years, with many customers getting what they want, ie t14

@seventensplit: did you read RFelixFinch's reddit review of Spivey pro bono? He didn't mention race at all in his app to the program, and they accepted him based on unusual life/background/history

Don't hate me but I start law school in the fall and I'm realizing I would happily do the LSAT for three years instead

Any idea when Spivey will actually make selections? The deadline is June 29th to apply, so I'm betting they won't make any decisions before that point. Will they email you if you've been rejected or only if they accept you?

I've been out of school for a long time and I'm scared I won't remember how to be a student, or that I'm too used to sleeping full 8-hour nights

I've never been a study group guy in my whole life. Seems like that's the default in law school, though. Idk it's more than a year away for me so I shouldn't even be thinking about this sort of minutia, but like I wonder if study groups are actually tangibly helpful in law school? I bet that majorly depends on who is in your study group, but then they form at the beginning of the year before anybody knows eachother, and momentum just keeps them going even if they aren't great

I haven’t been much of a group study person either in my educational career. If you’re living on campus it won’t be too bad ; I think it mainly becomes an issue for those who live off campus or commute far
