AA Female KJD, reverse spitter, chances at Columbia?

Post by aerier » Wed Oct 19, 2016 5:16 pm

Haven't gotten the reformulated number, but my UGPA is a 3.75. I took the LSAT twice, got a 158 the first time and the 156 this September. I studied, but extreme test anxiety got to me. I'm trying to decide whether to try this admissions cycle. (I'd rather not go through studying and taking the test again.) What are my chances for Columbia? I'm hoping for somewhere in the T14 or a strong Southern regional, like Emory, but Columbia's at the top of the list.

You might have a shot at Cornell, but even UT and Vandy are probably reaches. I'm not sure about Emory. Unfortunately, it looks like you might need to retake to have a shot at your target schools.

Columbia is likely going to be strict with LSATs, seeing as they now share a 172 median with HLS. Retake?
