PR Male 3.71/170

Post by cdotson2 » Sun Jul 05, 2015 10:32 pm

I made a thread in What are my chances, but thought I would ask in here specifically for chances at T3? I am a K-jd and I know the t3 is notoriously difficult for k-jds.

GPA: 3.71 (with a high upward trend if it matters)
lsat: 170
URM: Puerto Rico

softs nothing extradinary: Chief justice of student government (I oversee the student conduct board= which can expel students at my school), VP of Mock Trial, Leadership in Model UN and went to nationals, was a Junior Marshall for graduation, helped found a sports club freshman year and was president of it my sophomore year, I've also been a T/A for three semesters, and I also volunteered during summers at a special needs therapeutic horse riding ranch.

solid LOR: Know the professors very well 5 classes a piece and both really like me and know me through advising my organizations as well as in class, and maybe one from the associate dean of students who helps me with the student conduct board.

I would really like to go to Harvard.

Say "hi" to Cambridge. Maybe New Haven or Palo Alto if you'd like.

Why is T3 so difficult for K-JD? Do they really value job experience that much?
