Reach/target/safeties?

Post by applepiecrust » Mon Jun 21, 2010 1:56 am

As a rising senior, I have a 3.6 GPA from a T25 undergrad (3.7+ except for one semester); I'm hitting around 171-172 in PTs right now (taking October LSAT).
Decent softs, non-URM but M/international/LGBT, interested in international law.

Suggestions for reach schools, targets and safety schools?

Preferably on the coasts, but open to studying elsewhere as well (provided the school is LGBT and international student-friendly).

Your reaches right now are 150-200 schools; try asking around to see if any schools will take you without an LSAT.

But seriously, you need a real LSAT. A 173 and you have a good shot at CCN. A 169 and you don't. The only thing you know now is HYS is out unless you raise that 3.6 to a 3.7+ (emphasis on the +), in which case they might be reaches with a great LSAT (higher than your PTs).

If you are interested in international law and glbt, I'd say pull out the 172 take $$ to Cornell. Tell your friends you go to an ivy.

Come back when you have an LSAT score. Your targets are T6 with a 172+, T14 with a 169-171, and T20 with a 167-168.
