UNC Chapel Hill & Wake Forest Forum

[Hitbyabus21]

3.43 GPA
163 LSAT (just 1 attempt - won't retake out of laziness and probably won't do that much better, and possibly worse haha)
NC Resident
BS in Economics/Psychology Double Major Undergrad
Masters in Accounting Grad
CPA
1.5 years working for Big Four Accounting Firm


I know about LawSchoolPredictor (put me as consider for UNC - 48% and Wake - 50%) but it doesn't really take into account residency (which is huge for UNC)
Also, I have a masters degree, a CPA, and a little work experience. Softs aren't huge I know but I feel like they'll help a little which I think is important for me since I feel like I'm riding the line pretty hard numbers wise haha.

Anyway, let me know what you guys think or have heard of from other candidates
Thanks!!!

Your softs, especially the CPA, are pretty good. With an early app and good LOR's I think you have a chance to get accepted to at least one. Raising your LSAT even one or two points guarantees WF and probably gives you UNC as an in stater as well.

Awesome - thanks.

Anyone else have a good idea?


Oh, I went to UNC for both my undergrad and grad school.

too lazy to retake, too lazy to graduate top of class, no job?

haha - I'm not really that concerned about that part yet. My reasons for law school isn't to become a lawyer but I don't want to get into this right now.

FYI not something you want to mention on TLS... lol.

I'd agree with Sundance and say that you have a decent chance at UNC with NC residency.

I have my career goals in mind. I love the finance/accounting sector and there is a niche for those with legal expertise.
