Low GPA for southern methodist?

Post by Tiny123 » Thu Dec 24, 2015 11:23 pm

My family just moved to Dallas very recently, so SMU has become my top choice of school.

My GPA is 3.0, got 2 more semester and 1 summer left.

LSAT is 162 right now, going to retake it in Jun.

I am just wondering what is the chance to get into SMU with a low GPA, this forum doesnt seem to have enough information on the school itself.

Looks fairly promising. I think (though I could be wrong) smu is one of the schools that does the score band chart (like a multiplication table) for admissions. Might try and find that online. If I run into it I'll link it

Eta link...its 2013 data, but a more complete view:
