Status Check with Spivey

Critiquing AI-Generated Law School Personal Statements


Listen Later

In this episode of Status Check with Spivey, Spivey Consulting's COO Anna Hicks-Jaco gives the insider perspective on AI-generated personal statements—currently a hot topic of discussion in law school admissions offices—and critiques two personal statements written using ChatGPT. One of the AI-written essays follows a more general prompt, and one a specific prompt based on an A+ personal statement written by a real applicant a few years ago.

You can read both of the full essays (plus a full transcript of this episode) on our blog.
