CHANCES T-14
Hello all. My GPA isn't a traditional 2.99... I have 89 semester credit hours of A's and B's, with 45 hours of A, and 28 hours of C's & D's. What LSAT score would I need to be considered in HYS and the t-14? I am an AA male. Pretty good softs.

You're probably not going to HYS with that GPA, sorry man.
A 167 should get you into Cornell or GULC. A 169 gives you a decent shot at pretty much everything from Chicago down.

165 MIGHT get you GULC or Cornell at Sticker. You need to gun for high 160s if you want a worthwhile t-14 scenario.

No chances in the T5? I need to focus on the bottom?

Re: CHANCES T-14
Wait are you saying it is a 2.99?
If so, anyway to bump to a 3.0?? That tenth of a difference can put NYU and even UChicago at play, so long as it's paired with at least a mid- to high 160s LSAT.
If it's 2.99, yes, you're looking at the bottom of the T14s, including Michigan.

Re: CHANCES T-14
GPA is very crucial, especially for AAs. T-14s seem to generally set the bar for AAs at around 3.5. The further you are below that bar, the harder it is to get in.alpwilliams wrote:.01 makes that much of a difference? -.-

This is why every little bit makes a difference. A 3.0+ is much better than anything south of 3.0. Even then, you're looking at an uphill battle.
With a 2.99, you'll probably need at least a 165 to have a generally solid chance at a t-14, and even then only those in the lower half. I'd call a 162/163 the absolute minimum you'd need to have a chance at Cornell or GULC, based on what I've read here and at LSN.
