Do I have what it takes to be a good lawyer? -

I am applying at Pace Law School and trying to get in the joint program for JD/MAwomen s history with Sarah Lawrence. What does it take to be a good lawyer? How do you address that in a personal statement?

i d talk about integrity a lot. also, nonjudgmental, fair. analytical would be a big one. hardworking, congenial and professional.... talk about the qualities that come to mind to you when considering being a (good) lawyer and then give examples of how you exemplified those very qualities in the past/present. good luck!

Meticulous attention to detail who can think and act in a dynamic environment. Demonstrate that and you will be competitive Some might say you shouldn t have a conscious but I think they are joking.

LOL no no no i do not like watermelon..but hey thanx for askn
