Even with a perfect diploma for Russia I can not get a job due to disability.
What about Chapman Law school or California Western school of Law
with 147?
Privet tovarisch,

Your only sensible choice here is to study like hell, and retake. TTT law schools will only put you into debt without decent job prospects. The hardest part may be overcoming English but you should still be able to score in the 160s.

Retake. Most schools in CA want you to have a score in the 150s, not 140s. (forget about the Russian law degree)

What kinds of things would be on that graph? Cowboys? George Bush?

Yes, Rednecks, gun-nuts, school (and congresswoman) shooters, stolen elections, Dubya, Lewinsky scandal, laws that everyone follows, as well as this:

Anecdotal evidence supports the statement that EU women are better looking and less picky in general.

Otherwise, America is heaven compared to most other countries.

Not equivalent. Russia has a Civil Law system. And Russian universities are notoriously corrupt.
Louisiana still has/teaches civil law. You may feel more comfortable at a place like Tulane or LSU, however you're not gonna make it to either w/ a 147. If you really just don't want to retake, FAMU in Orlando would take you.

Southern University in Baton Rouge is probably a good bet as well. Plus tuition is like 8k a year.
