Is being admitted to Yale a possibility?

I agree with AA, you did administrative work for both the law and doctor’s offices. One suggestion, when describing these volunteer positions (they should not be called work unless you were paid), do not be overbearing in your description. In my opinion, telling the AOs at Yale that you gave opinions to lawyers on cases while an unpaid intern (for how long?), sounds a little pretenitous. I don’t doubt that they asked you for your opinion, but that may have been more out of courtesy than for your legal expertise. You have enough going for you, that you don’t want to come off being too naive or too full of yourself.
