Law School Interviews & Beyond: Prep for the Questions T14 Schools Ask

T14 interviews rarely stick to the questions you prepared for. Interviewers often start with something ordinary, like a resume walk-through, then follow up on whatever doesn't quite add up: a gap year, a career switch, a line in your personal statement that invites a harder question. This session looks at how those follow-ups actually work and how to answer them without sounding rehearsed or defensive. Kevin Paul has sat on the admissions side at Chicago Booth and has coached applicants into law, MBA, and undergraduate programs for fifteen years, so he has seen both how interviewers build their questions and how candidates talk themselves into trouble. That combination of perspectives is the point of this session, not a script to memorize.
