In before somebody sends you to http://www.lawschoolpredictor.com/
If you are not a URM probably about a 50 percent chance at wake and a 10 percent chance at Tulane

Re: Chances at Wake/Tulane
Dude, you know it's all going to come down to how you do on LSAT. The fact you started w/ a 157 won't matter -- the schools will take your highest score. Make sure you get a 161 and with your GPA you'll be safe at either. 160 might get you in. Below is unlikely. 162 will probably get you a little money and 163 will get you big money. I think the stats for both schools are about the same.

Re: Chances at Wake/Tulane
You have a shot at both, but if you get in, they are both going to be WL>Accept and you will have to pay sticker. And neither school is worth sticker. Shoot for 163+ and you should get lots of $. Good luck.m2092800 wrote:GPA 3.8

Re: Chances at Wake/Tulane
This gave me something to do during my break instead of checking out the Red Sox injury report (depressing, if you're interested in knowing).
Checked LSN
this cycle at Wake, two apps with your numbers - one waitlisted, one accepted off the waitlist, neither got any $
this cycle at Tulane, two apps with your numbers - both waitlisted, no word if they got accepted afterwards but they didn't wait around to find out either
Hope this helps

Re: Chances at Wake/Tulane
Make sure you dominate your lSATS in October. both are truly bad schools with horrible career opportunities. Def do not go without $$$ and you wont get $$ without a higher lsat score. Good luck

Re: Chances at Wake/Tulane
Let us say that I pull up my LSAT to 160 or 161band my GPA remains at 3.8. Any ideas on where that could get me? I am trying to figure out some target schools. Thanks in advance.

Re: Chances at Wake/Tulane
Are you interested in the South? (based on interest in Wake/Tulane)? With a 160-162 I'd say you're pretty much limited to Wake, Tulane, and your local state school. However, that's not necessarily a bad thing. Your local state school probably places great in its state. I would recommend against going to another state school just because it's ranked higher. Firms at your home market will be like "whey didn't you go to State," and forms in that market will be like "well, your grades are pretty good and its cool you came here for law school but we really prefer to higher our own."
Maybe with a 162 or 163 you could get Washington and Lee which is well respected throughout South.

Thanks for your help. I am interested in the staying in the South. However, I would be willing to go elsewhere pending the caliber of the school. good luck to you.vanburen81 wrote:Are you interested in the South? (based on interest in Wake/Tulane)?
