sample law school personal statement

Plan B is part of the network of blogs of MostStronglySupported.com, a site devoted to issues, news, and other information regarding the Law School Admission Test (LSAT). Bloggers on the site are teachers of LSAT classes, but Dixie Tananbaum, who runs Plan B, has just recently stopped teaching to take up law. She calls her blog Plan B as reference to her blogging, which she calls her second career.

What makes it a fun read

Aspiring law students will definitely find Plan B an easy read. Dixie writes in a simple yet engaging manner, keeping her readers focused. Her blogs are also of reasonable length — meaning, you don?t have to scroll down forever before hitting rock bottom. She writes humorous, concise, and straight-to-the-point articles.

Most of her posts are personal, such as her memories on going back to school or her experiences as an unoccupied unemployed. There are also informative posts for newbie law school students, such as one on law school myths or a two-part post on how to defer from entering law school.

What are the glitches

What is noticeable about Plan B is that it?s a relatively young blog. Its archives only date back to July 2009, giving a grand total of nine posts. Compared to other blogs, information in Plan B is definitely not as extensive. It also lacks information on the author herself, presenting only vague information in her “About” page. The author also fails to utilize a “Categories” list, but this could be attributed to the site?s relatively few posts.

This is not to say that Plan B has nothing to offer. In fact, there is a noticeable effort from the author when it comes to updating her page. The articles are current and relevant to the author?s life, and she is always able to concentrate it on her main topic, which is law school. Plan B is certainly one blog worth keeping tabs on.
