Because the image most people conjure up when they think about applying to law school does not include page limits, essay prompts, or even directions. There’s an assumption that you can write whatever you want — and as much as you want — because it’s your chance to tell admissions officers what you think is important.

If you've been talking about your applications since September but are only now getting around to writing your first drafts, or you're on draft #27 of a perfectly good essay you could have submitted weeks ago, that's a sign that you're looking for excuses not to finish your essay and send it out.

In fact, my hope is it’s the flipside of dark.
