losttttt

Post by Pozzy » Wed Jan 08, 2014 1:36 am

checking in. AA Female
UG GPA: 3.56
LSAC GPA: 3.48
Dec '13 LSAT: 163 (not thrilled about this)

I don't feel like this is good enough for T14. I am considering retaking in June. I'm so lost. A lot of what I am reading about my stats being good enough for T14 is from around 2008 and it seems like it has become way harder to get in.

Do I really stand a chance? I have no interesting softs. Graduated in '09 and haven't done anything of substance since. Just worked.

Obvious HYS would be a dream. Columbia and NYU would make me happy too.

Also feel like I'm so late in the application cycle ... one of my recommenders won't have his letter in until January 20th *le sigh*

It seems like all of you awesome people getting into the good schools have either high 165+ or 3.5+
what do i doooooooooooo? :?:

Get a different recommendation. June is far too late. You need one ASAP.
