Your cover letters, CVs and your applications are talking to a human being. You aren’t emailing a machine. A human is reading your application. His blood flow, heartbeat, emotions, hormonal surges and glandular secretions are being affected by your words.

These all will decide whether he rejects your application or accepts it. Make sure you take care of his internal systems through your words. He’ll take care of your application.

PS- If this is utopian; believe in utopia.

Its nice to talk of talents and god's gift when you are 15. After that it really does not matter. Thank you #5 for your lavish praise.

7, I wrote 'I know ABC'. ABC referring to a skill set. You have given it a nice twist :)

8, Truckloads of thanks. Am honoured. I wrote this after reading some poems from Mr. Kapil Sibals book cotaining his poems 'I witness'. Not necessarily inflluence by his style...maybe on a sub conscious level.

9, Hey! This was not to be funny :P Some serious advice in the end...

A view which is completely contrary to the perceived reality... hope this is true..

@ Legal Poet.. truly appreciate your contributions..I request you to come up with something on other avenues to law students (especially higher education, litigation etc.,)
