LETTER TO READERS:

Dear Reader,

If you are reading this letter, you likely have an interestâ€”nominally at leastâ€”in law school admissions. Which naturally prompts the question: Why this book? Why take up with this particular admissions guide, when others clearly aboundâ€”others of a more general variety, with an author of more traditional composure, and which include exclamation points and checklists and other accoutrement of Guidance to which you are, no doubt, accustomed?

And I will tell you why, Dear Reader. This book has pluck; it is infused with a combination of honesty and carefree humor that not only avoids undermining, but indeed enhances, the altogether dryer and more adult subject matter to which the bookâ€™s formalities are dedicated. At times, the admissions process will be long and harrowing. Trust me when I tell you that a long, harrowing admissions guide will not ease the process.

Despite contrary appearances, this book was penned for a general audience, not just for applicants to Yale Law School; indeed, not just for law school applicants. Therefore, even as I recommend the book wholly and exuberantly to law school applicants, I also recommend itâ€”just as wholly and just as exuberantlyâ€”to potential readers who have chosen a different course in life.

Finally, Dear Reader, you neednâ€™t worry: the rest of the book is written quite differently from the present letter. It is written more directly, less indulgently. In my own estimation, it is written more like a book ought to be written.

Thanksâ€”I do hope youâ€™ll give this a chance.
