Plain and simple...
3.43/175
-white male & Texas resident
-community service with a fraternity all my UG years
-did internship with a firm in Houston for a summer
-upward grade trend with addendum explaining 2 not so hot semesters
-WE during UG including teaching but nothing special


Reaches
-CCN
Targets
-UVA
-GULC
-Cornell
-UT
Safties (hopefully!)
-BC/BU
-UI Bloomington

I want a JD that I can move around with, but I know sometimes that's tough to get. New York is my dream school but I won't be butt hurt if I don't get into it.

Chance me!

Really? 3.4X and 175 (maybe) gets you a full ride at Michigan? :shock:

You're giving me hope again.

Probably not a full ride, but it might get you a half darrow.

edit: Maybe im being a little optimistic, you are a splitter o_O

Lolwut, 3.4-3.5/175+ doesn't even give you 50/50 odds of admission.

Thanks for all the replies!

I'm going to add Duke/UCLA to the list just to see if and $ oppertunities come up, but I feel like I'm shooting in the dark there..

But ED for NYU is what I want the most so that's what I'll shoot for.

Any other advice or chancing would be appreciated!

Is that 175 your only score? NYU has a policy of averaging multiple LSATs.

Your numbers/resume look very similar to mine (3.42/175/white male/two bad semesters/nothing special softs), so CCN is definitely not out of the question, even without applying ED. That said, you may be in for a very frustrating application experience, as along with my NYU acceptance I ended up with 8 WLs, all from schools lower ranked than NYU (except Chicago, didn't apply to Columbia). Applying early rather than in January as I did might help with some of that.
