Do I have a chance of getting in?

Post by aija345 » Wed Nov 23, 2011 5:29 am

I went to top 30 university, but screwed up in college and averaged a 2.1 GPA.
I regret it - but there's nothing I can do anymore.

Since graduating from college, I have had a successful career in the financial sector and entrepreneurial endeavors.

I got a 165 LSAT score.

Do I have a chance in getting into NY's 2nd or 3rd tier law schools?

Doesn't look good my friend. If you want any chance you are going to have to retake and boost that LSAT score.

I think you have a chance, though raising your LSAT will help you tremendously. Also, the further away in years you are from your UGPA, the better.

I have similar numbers. When I did my cycle 2 years ago, I was accepted to zero T1s, WL at a few T1s, accepted to many T2s, and accepted to very few T3s. I got into SUNY and Brooklyn.
