would you enroll me?

After checking out pilot applications my dad hinted on (probably to stave off any thoughts of a career in flight stewardship), I obliged my mom's wishes and mossied on to Ateneo College of Law's website and took a look at the law requirements there.

They haven't changed since last I looked before UP LAE, but my nonchalant gaze has. I look at them now calculatingly, and what I see are 9 units I lack and 2 letters of recommendation I have no idea where I'm going to pull out (of my ass?) from.

A link to the left caught me though, a quick click sent me to an online application form which could be unreliable (I'm not exactly sure where to put my 'II') but I filled it up anyway.

After the birth dates and Yes/No questions, the application surprised me with these 3 questions. I tried to answer them as consciously honest as I could:

What are your strong points?

Well, as far as my limited understanding of what it takes to be, at the least, a passing lawyer, all I can offer are:
- an expediently academic mind, willing to learn and hungry for guidance
- and, a devoted heart fiercely loyal to a justified purpose

What are your weak points?

As far as I can relevantly see
- my shabby background on accounting may impair me in negotiation and conveyancing but my experience with math should serve to ameliorate this
- also, I have put myself at a disadvantage against my fellow applicants due to the choice of course I took in college. I may not have the required units, but I will make every effort to comply with any imposition short of missing enrollment this 2007.

If admitted, how much time can you devote to your study of law?
As long as I'm awake.

How do you intend to support your studies?
My parents are willing to sponsor me as best they can through this endeavor

Please state any additional statements to support your application.

I am much aware that the opportunity to study law under Ateneo is scarce. Set against the large population of potentials drawn by its renown, I see clearly that the odds of getting in are slim.

But, I want to try. I want to apply despite that and see if I've got what it takes, maybe more. I may sound foolish and immature in saying this, but I see law as an opportunity to make a mark in the world.

It's a dream I've always had and always wondered about. Perhaps, law is the ticket I've been searching for all along.

So, would you enroll me?
