URM 3.6/167

So, adding myself to the flood of people reeling from December scores, trying to evaluate. 3.6 GPA, 167 on the December LSAT, queer black female. Do I have a shot at CCN? Other T14? I'm trying to decide if I should apply with those numbers (as I had been planning), or retake and wait another year and apply with a better (HOPEFULLY) score. Thanks in advance for any advice!

halfway decent shot at all 3, look at lsn for last cycle. you've got some urm's in with worse, and some out with better, might depend on your softs. blanket 4-14 in your apps and you should get some bites at the top and some $ at the bottom. but, you are late in the cycle now, so it is a bit more unpredictable. get in your apps asap, like tomorrow, since a lot of those urm spots will have already been taken. my $.02, hope it helps.

I think you should definitely try and take whichever T14 offer's you the biggest scholly.

Thanks so much for the advice, guys! I have all of my shit ready to send out tomorrow; I was just waiting on my score before I paid $900 in application fees. No sense in applying to HYS or CCN with a shitty-ass (relative to their applicant pool, of course) score.

One of HYS might bite. It's hard to know though because your numbers are solid, but it's late in the game. GOod luck tho. Also being queer probably won't affect admit decisions
