As promised in our April 6th timeline for this year’s BoBs, today is the day we release the 2009-2010 Best of Blogging nominees! For those of you not familiar with the Clear Admit Best of Blogging competition, the goal of this annual event is two-fold. First, we want to recognize and celebrate the best law school applicant and student blogs covering the 2009-10 admissions cycle/academic year. Equally important is Clear Admit’s commitment to identifying valuable sources of information for the next round of applicants and students.
The process we used to determine BoB nominees started with considering all FFF-featured blogs. Looking at originality and relevance of content, as well as total number of posts and overall contribution to the space, we then narrowed the count down to 25 nominees. Whether new to the blog scene or seasoned veterans, focused on providing class descriptions or travel tips, straightlaced students or party animals, all members of this group have shared something unique about themselves and provided informative and relatable information about the law school experience. And so, without further ado, the nominees are….

Ballots will be available early next week, and will be due on Friday, April 30th. We’ll be emailing ballots to nominees with their contact information on their blogs; those who don’t are encouraged to get in touch by sending a note to bob@clearadmit.com.
