I'm hanging with my little sis (she goes to FSU too) and watching Netflix movies. It is a stay in night for me.

If I do better (aka 170-172) then I'll just apply next year. If I do slightly better, I'll retake in September and apply next year.

If there is a school you'd prefer, then reapply if you do better. It could even just help for $$$.
Also, I'm SO jealous. I love GULC.

Hey now, Comm major here.

Oh, absolutely nothing wrong with comm (especially at nova, they get MacBook Pros while the rest of us got shitty Dells

). But they were expecting her to be a sports medicine doctor for Olympic gymnasts or something and this is a pretty big change salary wise haha

My current numbers are GPA: 3.9 LSAT: 169.

I was actually expecting some $$$ from them. Anything I can do to increase the chances of that?

Oh and btw I was shocked to receive it in the mail. They sent it to my school address and I rarely check my mailbox here. Also, there was no "deadline date" for my response. So how do I find that out?!

I really love GULC, don't get me wrong!

Oh they're totally fine with it. Actually encouraged it because her grades were sucking and she realized she hated most of her science classes. She chose comm herself. Now they're just constantly reminding her to declare so she can get a comm advisor and take the right classes.

They're not like super you-have-to-be-science or anything. My dad is an electrical engineer (typ), but my mom is a German professor. I was psych (got a BA) and business.

ETA: She was a gymnast (PA state champion wahoooo!) and was inspired by her injuries. Yuck

oh don't waste that GPA. You should get into a few t14s and you'll be able to negotiate. But get 170+ and you'll be looking at CCN

Doesn't a 169 with that GPA already have a good shot at CCN and even an outside shot at HYS?

Thanks! That's what I was trying to do this time around but I literally did not finish the last logic game which was so out-of-character for me but I just pulled it through and I think I did really well for the rest of the test only 2 or 3 wrong. so that brings me to like -9. so I'm hoping for a 170? I really want HYCC though.

I'm thinking med mal, personal injury, criminal, employment, or business.

I have a lot of different interests. I'm just letting my work experience dictate it's path for me.

How about you?

O ok. Fair enough. I suppose I knew little of the non-splitter world. I would need like a 180 to even have a shot at HYS!

If my GPA was 3.9 I'd be all up in Columbia's face.

How much can a GPA help you? I'm above Columbia's 75th, but I would still need a killer LSAT I'd guess...
