very true, but luckily the PTO is footing my bill (minus the taxes). I'm taking the LSAT on September 30th and will probably follow that order: 1) gtown, 2) gwu, 3) gmu. This is all assuming that i do well enough on the LSAT to be competitive. I'm an older candidate and my application will be very unique so i hope that scores some points with the admissions people, but hopefully i do well on the LSAT to bolster my app.

I always root for the "older candidates". Good luck with your endeavor.

The good news is they are planning to hire about 1000 examiners a year for next few years. The first day is orientation, then they split you up in a group of 12-14 according to your expertise. The first 2 weeks are very basic, intro stuff. then they get into more technical detail. Overall its a good job. The dress code is business casual, like khakis and a collared shirt. Lemme know if you have any other questions. |
| Any hind how many new hires will be in the biotech/Pharma area ? Thanks.
