Boston College
University of Boston
George Washington
Georgetown- PT

UCLA
USC

What are my chances?

sorta similar numbers with similar schools....interested in this

Visit http://www.lawschoolpredictor.com. Looks fairly unlikely for all but Arizona. Have you considered putting in extra prep time for the LSAT and retaking?

Maybe I am being too optimistic that my LSAT will balance out my GPA. What do you think my chances are part time at GW.

University of Boston - Slim chance.
George Washington - A good chance.
Georgetown- PT - Out
Notre Dame - A good chance
Cornell - Out
UCLA - 99.9% Out
USC - Out
UT - 99.9% out
UArizona - In

FWIW, I have IDENTICAL numbers as you. I have already been rejected from UT. I blanketed the 15-25 range with my apps.

Your LSAT will get you in somewhere in the t20-t30 range. You have a marginal shot at BU, BC, ND and GW -- you should get off the WL somewhere. If you want a t30-type school, your LSAT also would give you a strong shot at Indiana-Bloomington, Iowa and William and Mary.

You might also want to try WUSTL. You have a much better shot there than at UT, USC or UCLA.

Good luck!
