3.6/157

Post by jba1112 » Thu Jan 07, 2010 1:28 pm

My GPA at GW was 3.6, I can't get my LSAT over 157 (Kaplan course only helped me gain 1 point). I graduated in 3 years and worked internships on the Hill and at a major thinktank. Have worked as a paralegal since I graduated last May. Not a URM.

Here are the schools I was looking to apply to, not sure if they are realistic (if not any suggestions?)

Ohio State
CWRU
William & Mary
Wash U
Minnesota
Wisconsin
Indiana
UNC
Emory
Cleveland State
GWU (Does being an alum help?)

GWU (Does being an alum help?) - Out

I'd say you need more targets. You have too many reaches. Since it seems like you prefer the Midwest, I'd throw in Indiana-Indy, Missouri, Penn State, Pitt, Chicago-Kent, Marquette, & DePaul.

I can't imagine what your debt load is currently having been at GW undergrad. But tacking on more three years of law school at sticker (and at the schools that would accept a 157 LSAT) would scare the heck out of me.
