NA 3.5/169 Forum

[xmrmckenziex]

Not applying until next cycle but I wanted to know what my prospects were at the immediate moment if my retake doesn't get significantly higher. I'm a mid 3.5/169 with medium softs and most likely perfectly adequate (not great) LORs. A little bit of work experience (internships) and I'm Native American. I have a tribal card and roll number; experience with small native communities but never lived on a reservation.

I'll probably apply to most of the T-14 (sans Northwestern) and also UCLA, Texas, BU and/or Vandy

Native American really depends on school. I hear at some schools it may be a bigger boost than being black while at others it doesn't help nearly as much.

But you will 100% get into most t14 schools imo!

meh, from what i've seen it isn't much of a boost. But, i'd imagine you'll have good shots at everything outside of the t6. You might be able to sneak into a t6, but i'd doubt it just from what i've seen.
