Chances at Northwestern
I'm currently at JMLS in Chicago, have been accepted to GULC, and am shooting for Northwestern. Was t-2% in the class last semester, and I think exams went well (maybe not quite as well as last semester). I am really hoping to avoid a move to D.C. Does anyone know what kind of chance I have at NW assuming consistent performance? I heard NW values professional experience. I was in consulting for 2 years and worked for McDonald's Corp. for 1. Maybe this helps? Thanks in advance.

Re: Chances at Northwestern
I'm an incoming 1L at NU, so it's not like I have a lot of expertise, but check out NU's blog post on transfer students-- it just went up, and I'd give you the URL, but I'm on a work comp and can't access it. Anyway, yes, work experience is still a virtual requirement for transfers, so that'll help you. Good luck!

Re: Chances at Northwestern
Was anyone else surprised by how poorly written that blog post is? Whoever wrote it uses "hopefully" as an adverb, uses the word "said" instead of a normal article (the), uses "lets" when it should say let's. In the second bullet point under the tips section the writer uses a comma to separate two complete sentences. It's also riddled with unnecessary commas. Lastly, the writer uses the the phrase "that said" - yuck.

Re: Chances at Northwestern
In the blog, this is listed as one of the application requirements:
Final Undergraduate Transcript (directly from your law school)
Errrr....? Do you they mean: your undergrad transcript for your undergrad school, or your final 1L transcript from your law school?
