How to Get into the Top Law Schools (Paperback: 352 pages)

Each year, more than 130,000 men and women take the LSAT with hopes of making the grade for a quality program. But the odds are against them: the nation's most respected institutions typically accept only one out of five applicants.

Richard Montauk, a savvy admissions insider who is also a lawyer, demystifies the entire application process -- and provides the targeted tools to ace every step. Based on interviews with dozens of admissions officers, he offers an up-close and inside view of what leading law schools look for in an applicant. And he gives applicants solid, detailed advice on how to assess and upgrade their credentials to better match that ideal profile.

From honing in on the right school to landing a plum job upon graduation, this guide gives applicants the kind of information that is not available in other sources, including:
-- How to write high quality essays for maximum impact
-- A thorough analysis of how to maneuver through the financial aid maze
-- How to land the most desirable jobs upon graduation

Complete with a detailed timetable showing what needs to be done when, this comprehensive and reliable resource is a must for anyone serious about a future in law.
