10 yr Vet/3.76 GPA...What are my chances for T14?

Post by jcf_airforce » Tue Dec 16, 2014 12:00 pm

First time poster here. I'd appreciate any advice you guys could provide.

What LSAT score would I need to be competitive at a T14 school? I'd prefer to end up in DC or California, but would be open to a variety of locations.

Undergrad GPA: 3.76 (B.A. History)
Graduate GPA: 4.0 (M.A. International Relations)

10 years active duty Air Force intelligence officer/multiple combat deployments/7+ yrs spent overseas
100% GI Bill eligible - tuition is no factor

non-URM, white male

Graduate GPA can be considered a minor positive "soft" factor but won't really factor in.

If you apply to all T14 this or next cycle, you can probably get in to a lower ranked one off the waitlist with as low as a 164.

A 169/170 will probably give you a shot at a T6 (again, maybe off the waitlist)

A 172/173 may give you a shot at a T3.

Any of the T14 will help you to some extent with placement in DC or California, but exact placement numbers are easily google-able for an S2

For the love of god, study until your brains explode. A 167 will probably get you into a T14, and you're probably a lock at CCN around 170. If you can pull off mid-low 170s, Harvard might even be in the cards.

Also, those are some solid soft factors.

I agree with the above posters. You should shoot for a 167 if you want to go to the T14. MAYBE a 165 off the waitlist. I dont know if you're hesitant to check LSN because you dont know if people will have your same softs (military background) but it is a great guide.
