Is it a good idea to include a picture of yourself with your application?
Do people do this?
I think it puts a face on the application which is nice.
It may be difficult to do through lsac though
Absolutely not. No no no no no no no no no no no no.
Just say no.
This is a terrible idea.
gonna go with “no”
unless you send a video too
Make sure it’s a nude pic.
I don’t know about admissions, but in hiring a lot of places will ding you immediately if you have a pic. They don’t want to have the appearance of bias based on the pic.
What would compel you to include a picture?
The ONLY way anything of this sort would be acceptable is if you’re doing the GULC optional video essay.
Otherwise . . . save yourself the embarrassment.
I’ve read in interviews that trying to do anything “original” is a BAD idea.
If you can send a video/picture like this, then do it. Otherwise, probably not the best idea.
In other words: You are not Elle Woods.
Picture? L-O-L. If you’re going to show your face, at least be fabulous about it. My sorority sisters helped me film a video that explained why I would be a good fit for Harvard, and I totally got a KB1. My ex-boyfriend is going to be so excited when we attend HLS together. It’s the perfect way to win him back!!!
Precisely. Law schools want future lawyers. Lawyers aren’t original or interesting. They’re logical, pragmatic, and have good judgment. Pictures show none of those things.
I don’t understand, why are you outing me? Where did you find that picture? This is inappropriate, one of the mods should ban you!!!
You got in to Harvard Law? What? Like it’s hard?
It’s easy. Just insert the picture into a word document - your CV would be best.
The other posters are just reacting negatively because they don’t want to be judged on their looks.
I would include a selection of photos - you don’t want them to think that you only look good from one angle, et cetera.
Perhaps dress in a suit and have your photo taken outside the local courthouse?
Would you like to see my resume guys? It’s pink and scented! I think it gives it a little something extra! 
Make sure you’re holding a gavel and wearing your nicest thick-framed glasses to look extra smart and lawyerly.
I think it’s hilarious how familiar TLS is with that movie considering it came out when most TLSers were like 12. Could this be everyone’s REAL motivation for law school?
