Chance me for T14s

Post by katheroute » Sun Jan 05, 2020 11:20 pm

Hi. First time poster.
Here are my stats:
3.6 GPA
180 LSAT
I'm a woman, an URM, and I am still in undergrad.
I've interned for congressional offices, I've done teen court, and I am going to intern for the SCOTUS next year.
Chance me?

You're live everywhere. That GPA is maybe too soft for named full-rides but URM/180 makes you one of the strongest applicants in any given year.

Agree with the above. OP, you have a great shot at every T13, up to and including Yale and Stanford. And I'd be absolutely shocked if you didn't get into every T13 from Harvard on down. A 3.6/180 is a very strong applicant profile even for a straight white male applicant - in the URM applicant pool, it's extraordinary. I'd expect significant merit aid at multiple T13s. As LSAT Airbender says, it's harder to predict whether you'd get full rides at CCN, but if you don't, you are still almost certainly going to get multiple full-rides elsewhere in the T13.

Apply to every single T13. You'll do great.
