1. Define "brown"
2. Can you improve your LSAT? If so, retake.
3. Add WUSTL and UIUC to your list.
4. Can you get your GPA up?
5. Where do you want to practice? Your list of schools is very random.

Really? You should be able to get into most, if not all those schools with your score.

I'd add Minnesota to your list as well.

These are mostly safeties. As others have said, where you want to practice should dictate what schools you apply to. ie Fordham, while a great school, is going to get you a job in NYC, not Cali. Also, unless you're gunning for money, I think your sights are aimed too low. Your targets should be schools in the T20-T30 range. It wouldn't be absurd to toss an application or two to the lower T14 either, esp if you're able to raise your GPA a bit this fall.

Hmm. Well. Ok.

I feel like I must be missing a pop culture reference here. But alright.

Keep your fingers at rest. The fail was strong in this one making his TLS life a short one. On the other hand, if you're bored and just want to mentally go through and speculate on the possible scenarios and for a 168/3.2 candidate, go right ahead. I realize how fun and exciting it can be and wouldn't want anyone to feel deprived.

what did I miss here? Checking back after a long weekend. Probably shouldn't care, but a little drunk. Was that a picture of OP?
