Greetings! As y'll know, I am applying to YLS this cycle. I need your halp! I need to write the YLS 250 essay, but don't know where to start. This thread is intended for AutoAdmit posters—some of the most creative people I know—to get the juices flowing, so that I can submit the YLS 250 essay before January. Information about the YLS 250 essay can be found here: http://blogs.law.yale.edu/blogs/admissions/archive/2008/01/23/the-250-word-albatross.aspx

Thank

But the samples also tell something about the readers. "I had one essay that said how awful Twilight was"--the essay was about damaging themes of female submissiveness in the series--"and I was like, 'Admit her!' " says Melissa Faulner, a 2006 grad on the committee.

Ferguson is too recent. I think many YLS lib applicants will talk about it and how it "influenced them to become a lawyer" so that they can "reform" the injustices in ARE legal system.

Write about literature.

Nick Caraway's doucebaggy and unreliable narration in the Great Gatsby is a good topic, if slightly cliche.

Bonus points: discuss his gay scene in GG.
