3.8 - 170

Post by chrisnyoder » Thu May 13, 2010 10:48 pm

Got 3.8. Practice LSAT tests have put me in about the 170ish range.

Top choices

-Columbia
-NYU
-Berkeley
(I'm a little reluctant to apply for HYS)

Next choices

-Chicago
-Mich
-Cornell
-UVA
-UNC-Chapel Hill (so ridiculously cheap for in-state students)

Thanks!

I have an identical GPA, usually score a 171 on practice tests, and also had some decent EC's throughout undergrad. Since I'm in relatively the same position, I've thought about this a lot, I really think it all depends on exactly what you score on the LSAT. For example, <170 will probably keep you out of CCN, but 172+ and you'd be in great shape. I'd just wait until you have an actual LSAT score and people will be able to give you a much better idea of your admissions prospects.
