If he goes for an interview or meeting with the school, my opinion is that he should wear some Ben Franklin spectacles and bring a kite with him. When they ask why you brought a kite, you say that its a family thing.fatduck wrote:ftfymaf70 wrote:Currently a TTT.

Applying GULC EA.

UVA - If you're at Richmond or have significant ties to VA, 60%, otherwise 20%
CLS - 35-40%
NYU - 35-40%
Haha, I think UVA undergrad qualifies as significant ties to VA. From what I've heard, UVA just doesn't really take anyone who's not from VA or at a VA school. 50%.Vronsky wrote:Any idea of what I can do to boost my chances?lawloser22 wrote:GULC EA - 50% (75% RD)Vronsky wrote:T2 in the 80s.

Out of state resident, but UVA undergrad...
I've also got 2 Calis and got those professors to write my LORs.
NYC-area if that helps for CLS and NYU.
Can I get a hallelujah?

Im most interested right now in Penn and Michigan. My law school is in a neighboring state to both Penn and Michigan, so Im assuming/ hoping that this might help my chances?lawloser22 wrote:50-60% at GTmaf70 wrote:Currently a TTT.

These two seem to be particularly TTT-friendly.
where do you wanna go? Blanket T7-14 -- 90% sure you'll get one.
EDIT: forgot you were the Penn guy -- 50% if you spin your ties well.
Michigan is definitely within reach.maf70 wrote:Im most interested right now in Penn and Michigan. My law school is in a neighboring state to both Penn and Michigan, so Im assuming/ hoping that this might help my chances?lawloser22 wrote:50-60% at GTmaf70 wrote:Currently a TTT.

Im also planning on throwing a hail mary at NYU and Columbia. How abysmal are my chances there if Im still #2 at the end of the semester?
Whoops, didn't see the PT. No idea, though I'd assume your about 50% at GULC and in on down.j7108 wrote:I'll bite.
TTT - Midwest
3.67 (PT) on 2.6/2.7 Curve
#1 in class
Good softs, and significant work experience.
Planning on applying to:
GULC (EA), Emory, SMU, Vanderbilt, Duke, GW, Cornell, UH, Columbia, UM-Ann Arbor (Maybe BU, UV)
If I keep my number 1 spot, I'll even give YHS a shot.
