International student looking to get a JD
Hey everyone, this is my 1st post here on TLS so I am extremely excited
I am an International student currently attending a non-target US college. I am double-majoring in Mathematics and Economics and have a 3.9 GPA. My question is, how much harder is it for non-us citizens/residents to get accepted into a T5 law school? Do I need to get an LSAT score that is WAY higher than the median?
Any advice would be great.
Thanks!

Re: International student looking to get a JD
Does anyone else have different experiences when it comes to the topic? It is very hard to get a feel for the type of international students that get into the top 5 law schools because TLS stats has a very small sample size.

Re: International student looking to get a JD
You don't have a 173, if you are still asking these questions.
The answer is no. You go to an american college, so you will be assessed basically in the same way as American students in the admission process.
