[quote=Anonymous]Spring of my junior year we drove from our midwestern state and visited half a dozen schools in DC, Virginia, and NC. Spring break was 2wks long so there was plenty of time. G'town, GW, American Univ, UVA, William and Mary, Duke, UNC Chapel Hill, and I think one or two others. I did a weekend on my own visiting a friend who was at Notre Dame. We also visited 3 or 4 schools in my home state. IIRC most were full tours. I was a National Merit Finalist and was contacted by lots of schools, some offering money. My parents didn't officially say no to schools that were further away but played on my own nervousness to take them off the table. Money was a big factor for us since they'd paid for private school and I knew I wanted law school. I ended up at an unimpressive state school on a full scholarship, made the most of it, and attended a Top 10 law school afterwards. Graduated HS in 1989.[/quote]
