Description

For today’s episode, we dive into the recent Supreme Court ruling on race-conscious admissions policies, often referred to as affirmative action. The ruling prohibits schools from explicitly considering race as a factor in admissions decisions, leading to potential changes in the application process. If you’re a student of color applying to law school this cycle, you might be wondering about these potential changes. Don’t worry, we have you covered in this week’s episode, and are here to help you understand the implications of it all. We delve into the arguments made by the court and examine the impact on schools and their efforts to promote diversity. We also address the potential impact on law school essays. So listen in as we provide insights on alternative factors schools may consider and offer guidance on crafting strong law school applications in light of the ruling.
