Application Assistance
I had the pleasure of working with Rachel at JD Advising and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Before working together, I had limited knowledge of the application process, but Rachel expertly walked me through it and helped me create a personal statement that earned me multiple full-ride offers. Her expertise and guidance made the entire process a breeze and I couldn’t be more grateful. I highly recommend JD Advising and especially working with Rachel.

Rachel is an absolute pleasure and I am incredibly lucky to have worked with her on my statements! She helped me structure my cover letter, resume, diversity statement, and other application materials so that I could best present my story and highlight my strengths to many top-ranked BigLaw firms in the nation. Rachel offered constructive feedback and provided valuable insight during the drafting process. She answered all my questions and was always very responsive and thorough, despite her busy schedule and the number of students she works with. The law firm application process is stressful enough as it is, but I felt at-ease thanks to Rachel! She had a positive attitude and was there to keep me grounded and focused on my goals. Because of her help and support, I have received several offers at national BigLaw firms!
BOTTOM LINE: Rachel goes above and beyond when working with her clients, and motivates them throughout the entire process. Reaching out to her was the best decision I made and I couldn’t be happier with my choice to work with Rachel. I STRONGLY recommend her to anyone who wants to craft an unforgettable application and invest in their legal futures! Thank you, Rachel! You are AMAZING! 10/10 recommend.

Law School Tutoring
Law school can be an isolating experience, so working with someone who has been through it helps as they can give advice beyond subject material. Unlike commercial courses, JD Advising lets you direct the sessions based on the material you want to focus on. Whether its help with class material, exam prep, or advice on how to pick class schedules or internships, your tutor is there to help you! I personally benefited from being able to talk through the information and hearing it explained differently from the professor.

I am glad that I used JD Advising for my 1L final prep. Heather was very thorough and detail-oriented. She would look over my practice exam answers and identify logical leaps in my analysis. She was also able to guide me through analogizing the exam question with or distinguishing the exam question from the precedents that I read in class. As a first-semester law student who did not really know how to answer exam questions, I certainly benefited from Heather’s tutoring sessions.

I reached out to JD Advising and I was paired with Heather, who was amazing! She provided detailed examples and walked me through each one. This service was so helpful. I would highly recommend these services to anyone in law school, and particularly to 1L’s!

Law School Prep Course
I am so glad I ran across JD Advising! The info provided in the course has helped me be a more prepared and thus a more successful law student!
I would highly recommend this class to all law students. The materials are fabulous and can serve as a reference guide for all your law school classes. The instructors were engaging and I thoroughly enjoyed watching all the videos.
Amazing! This course opened my eyes to what the 1L experience will be like and offered many practical and direct tips to do well.
A wonderful overview to boost confidence prior to law school. The LWR Section helped me understand the formatting I would be encountering and prepared me to excel.
This course was amazing and helped a lot with my nerves about starting law school!
This course made me feel so comfortable when I began law school! It provided the essential basics that make all the difference in excelling in law school.
I am so happy to say that I enrolled in and completed this course! I will be starting law school in the fall, and I believe that the tools, tips, and tricks that I learned in this course will be instrumental for my success in my 1L year!
– Law School Prep Course Student
Thank you SO much for making this prep course free. It has been incredibly helpful and I feel much more confident about starting law school in the fall. During a time of many expenses due to law school, I cannot tell you all how much I appreciate that you have made your course free. THANK YOU!
This preparatory class has put me in a much better place than I was before I was introduced to the class. Going into the class, I knew almost nothing about what law school would be like. My expectations came only from word of mouth from friends and family. However, Meagan and Ashley have eased my mind about starting law school now that I have a solid foundation to rely on going into Wayne State Law. This course provides a very comfortable environment to learn. I feel that I have gone from knowing very little about how to succeed as a student of law to gaining an advantage over others who may not have taken such a course in five sessions. These sessions cover all the bases. I learned the ins and outs of how to approach each class and how to use time efficiently to earn the best grades possible. I would recommend this course to anyone seeking an early advantage in law school and to anyone who wishes to learn more about how to be the best law student they can be.

Dear Meagan, Thank you so much for the lessons and advice you have given me. I feel so excited and well-prepared for law school thanks to you. You were patient and supportive throughout the course. It is my blessing to have a mentor like you.
– Law School Prep Course Student
The course helped me feel mentally, emotionally, and physically prepared for law school. Instead of feeling the normal sentiments of panic, I am quite calm and not in the slightest overwhelmed to begin my classes, thanks to what I learned in the pre-law classes. This was the best investment and I highly recommend that 1L law students take this course before beginning their legal journey.

Law School Application Assistance
Rachel was great– I would recommend her in a heartbeat. Her guidance has been invaluable. She is so knowledgeable about the admissions process and was able to provide me complete information that helped me make informed decisions. I really appreciated her ability to be strategic and realistic while still remaining supportive. She responded to my emails quickly (after business hours and on weekends), thoroughly, and thoughtfully. Her guidance made this intense process all the more manageable. I’m so grateful for her help.

Rachel was really professional, caring, and well aware of the requirements needed for my inquiries; even though they were for Canadian schools. She helped me with my CV and my LSAT addendum, and both times she did more than I could even expect.

– Personal Statement Review Package #1 Purchaser
My experience with JD Advising was phenomenal. I was on a time crunch to get my applications in and had my personal statement reviewed and edited within days of finding out about JD Advising. Not only was the service timely, but the comments were immensely constructive and easy to understand. I also really appreciated the personalized attention I received, with one on one phone calls that allowed me to ask questions and discuss the feedback. I wish I would have found out about you earlier so that I could have taken advantage of the other pre-law services you offer! Thank you for all your help, I feel so much more confident in my application now.”
