Jamaican/Asian = Blasian
LSAT: 159
LSAC GPA: 3.44
commissioned military officer (10 years service)
Graduate degree: MPA 3.9 GPA
Emigrated to U.S. at 12, citizen now.

I ran the calculators, but now I need the human element. LSAT retake not an option; looking at left coast institutions.

P.S Carlton Tingling is the only Jamaican professional racing driver of note.

Why is retaking not an option? Many people say that, but there are only a few situations when it is so. Add 5 points to your LSAT and it's a whole new ballgame.

Also, you need to list the schools for which you want to be chanced. However, the schools you're likely to get into aren't worth the debt due to poor job prospects. If you don't believe me, read this: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/09/busin ... wanted=all

I'm not trying to be a jerk, but everyone who comes on TLS needs to hear this in some form or another.

I was thinking along the lines of Santa Clara, University of Hawaii, Hastings, San Diego. No retake because I am too busy (in another graduate program and family life).
