I'm interested in attended either Texas Tech or Thurgood Marshall School of Law.
I'm currently a senior with a 3.0 college GPA. I really messed up my first year of classes, and I ended up retaking the courses. They weren't hard classes, I just didn't show up. So, with the retakes, I have a 3.0. I decided I had an interest in law the beginning of my senior year, which doesn't help.
I still have 3 semesters left of school, which should all be 3.5-4.0 semesters.
I will graduate in December of 2014 with a major in Criminal Justice and a minor in Philosophy.
I will not being taking my LSAT until 2014, and I am currently preparing for it.
With a decent LSAT score, will I be able to get into either of the two law schools?
Thank You!

According to lawschoolpredictor.com you need like a 162 or so.CCL wrote:I'm interested in attended either Texas Tech or Thurgood Marshall school of law.

That said, you shouldn't go to either of these schools. Spend more time on this website to determine why. If you must stay in Texas, get a 170 for a shot at University of Houston or SMU.

Re: 3.0 GPA
Just to make sure: you're aware that LSAC counts both the original grade and the retake grade, right?
