Harvard/Cornell/UNC

Post by NoWay » Tue Apr 24, 2012 11:49 pm

I applied to three law schools (Harvard, Cornell, and North Carolina) and was accepted to all three. My LSAT score is 176 but my UGPA is 2.81 so I cannot understand getting accepted to Harvard or Cornell, but I did! Now I have to be honest with myself (I have always been a slacker), I have not always been the best student as indicated by my 2.81 UGPA. I am not a minority (I am a white male with blue eyes and I am straight) so it doesn't make sense. However, sense I did get in to Harvard that's where I am going!

Why did they accept me, my essay wasn't that great and I have no Harvard or Cornell grads in my family.

I know this is a flame but the school choices seem odd, but maybe just because I'm seriously considering 2 of the 3 schools in OP's post. I applied to the 3rd but got rejected, you can probably figure out which I'm talking about.
