| "I have been extremely pleased
with the level of service Ms. Mancusi has provided me. Despite the
fact that I consider myself fairly knowledgeable regarding law
school admissions, Ms. Mancusi has been able to supply me with a
considerable bit of insider knowledge that simply can't be found in
law school reference books or on the Princeton Review Law Discussion
site (of which I am a frequent visitor). While I haven't heard back
regarding the results of our efforts quite yet, I am confident that
Ms. Mancusi helped me put together the best package possible." --

| "Thank you for all the help you
have provided me. I believe that were it not for your help in
preparing my personal statement and application package, I would not
have been offered the significant scholarship to "School X" or the
full scholarship to "School Y". I would be glad to serve as a
reference to potential clients." -- S.S. |

| "The Strengths and Weaknesses Review with Donna was just the thing I
needed before sending out my applications. I didn't have the time or resources for a longer consultation, but desperately
needed general guidance regarding my personal statement and resume, as well as the overall personality of my application.
Donna was able to provide for me invaluable advice and encouragement, and answered every question I had in a succinct
and assured manner. She's not only experienced in the field, she genuinely cares about those she helps. After taking
her advice, I definitely felt more confident about my application package and was less stressed because I knew exactly
where I stood. It's only been two weeks since I've sent out my applications and the acceptances have started to come
in. I'd like to thank Donna for being a sane voice amidst the maddening process of my law school
applications." -- L.C. |

| "Donna provides thoughtful
advice from a perspective not usually available. I had her review my
application (which is fairly long, with lots of addenda) and am
pleased with the result. She replied with a point-by-point
discussion of strengths and weaknesses. Her experience as a
recruiter at an ivy league school, coupled with her personal
experience with the application process gives her a good deal of
insight and credibility. This is not an easy to find resource. I am
not aware of any law school that allows you to bring in your
application for a preliminary review and commentary. Anyone who
really wants to improve his/her application, please feel free to
contact me via email to ask about the service. You get what you pay
for. I think it is worth it for candidates who want to maximize
their chances of admission." -- C.R. |

| "I recommend Law School Connections to anybody applying to law school. Before I began working with Donna, I was confused and stressed out over how to handle my applications. Not only did Donna ease my nerves by answering all of my questions, she also provided excellent advice for my personal statement and resume. For a very reasonable price, I received top-notch advising that undoubtedly improved my application.

| "Donna provides real and helpful
advice. Immediately, I could tell that she knew her stuff and also
was aware of what would work and what would not work in the
admissions game today. Furthermore, Donna provides very fair prices
for her services and possesses a lot of integrity. I am very
satisfied to have retained her services." -- T.C. |

|
| "I found Donna's input on my
resume & personal statement to be invaluable. I had reached an
impasse on the closing paragraph of my personal statement & my
resume was in need of a major overhaul. My interactions with Donna
were extremely helpful. I got accepted at almost every 'Tier One'
School to which I applied & I got loads of scholarships, too." -- C. |

|
| "Law School Connections is an
invaluable service to anyone wishing to get into law school. The
help that I received was very VALUABLE. Working with Law School
Connections saved a lot of headaches and stress!!!" -- E.P. |

| "I heard about Donna at the PR
board. Although I never take any of the advice too seriously at that
site, I decided to check out Donna's site. I had a few important
issues and really needed some serious guidance. Thus, I e-mailed
Donna with my questions and received prompt and insightful
information. She didn't even charge me. Donna was more interested in
helping me than charging a fee for a small piece of advice. This
indicates a real committment to people. My only regret is that I did
not contact Donna before the application process." -- S.C.

| "I met Donna during my senior
year. She represented the University of Pennsylvania at the
University of Arizona's annual law school fair. The fair was
scheduled the day before my LSAT and needless to say I was anxious
as hell. Donna stood out among the other law school reps. in
enthusiasm and candor. She made a very good impression on me, so
much so that I wrote about our meeting in the extra essay Penn
required. When I talked to her during the law school fair she made
sure to get my name and then called me after I was admitted to Penn
to talk about the school and to answer any questions that I had.
Ultimately I chose Harvard, but even so, we have kept in touch and I
have appreciated her advice about first year work load and job
searches (especially her experiences with Big Law). I can't give a
testimonial about the effectiveness of her services in getting
people into law school since that wasn't the basis of our
relationship. All I can say is that she is a good person. She is
unique in that she gave me honest and candid information about my
chances at Penn (prior to taking the LSAT) that no other admissions
rep. was giving. Not to mention she has continued to give me great
advice this past year and a half even though I turned down her
efforts to recruit me." -- Aaron P. Harvard Law '03 |
