2.9 162 non-URM - this year and next Forum

[RickyRoe]

Assume I have average softs. I already have my applications sent out to a few TTT but then my February LSAT came back much higher than my previous 2 scores and I am left scrambling to find a school in my new range. I know I am at a disadvantage applying this late in the game and I know I would be better off waiting until next cycle, but what are my chances this year at these schools?

IU- Indy
Penn State
Miami
LSU

I think I am in good shape at IU-Indy, not too sure about the others.

For next year, what are my chances at these schools if I apply ED?

Florida
Florida State
UK
Tennessee
Penn State
Pitt

I think I might have a shot at the last 2 if I apply ED; would it even be worth the risk to use my only ED on any of the other 4?

I wouldn't say you're a lock at any of these schools. However, your chances are pretty good.

IU- Indy (Pretty good)
Penn State (50/50)
Miami (50/50)
LSU (50/50)

Florida
Florida State
UK
Tennessee
Penn State
Pitt

I personally don't think you're going to get UK whether you ED or not.. Florida could be possibly with early. You might be able to get in the other 4 RD.

Bump. Here is another question:
What are the chances that I get into any of the following schools applying in the next cycle- Tennessee, UF, FSU, UK
Are my chances good enough to be worth sitting out another year rather than going to IU-Indy this year?

I have similar numbs (lil higher GPA and a 161) and applied to some of the same schools in late December. I got held at FSU, WL at Penn St, accepted at Miami, accepted at LSU $, havent heard back from UF (expecting deny), and haven't heard from Pitt.

HTH

How much money did you get from LSU? Their tuition is pretty reasonable for out of state and I hear good things about the campus.

I got into Miami with a 2.98/159. Granted, I had a major upward grade trend but don't believe the naysayers on this board. I think with a good personal statement your in there with a 162

162, 2.98. I got in to LSU with a decent scholarship. I'm still waiting to hear back from tennessee, but I hope its an acceptance
