3.67/166 Forum

[ZachOda]

Just got the LSAT score back, and now that I have the actual score and not just some practice test, I figured I'd put it out there to ask all you out there on TSL where I should be setting my sights on. As a background, like the status says, I have a 3.67 UGPA as a psych major at a pretty good private college in the northeast, and the LSAT score is 166. I am a MA resident and money might be an issue. I am looking to move down south a ways, because I want to see what its like and I feel that it would be a great change of scenery. Right now, I'm interested in Texas, UNC, UGA, Wake, Vanderbilt, UWashington, and I'm throwing Cornell into the loop as well just for fun. So my question is what are my chances at these schools and is there anyplace else I should be looking?

Thanks for the help, and congratulations to all the other TSL'ers that are getting their scores back

Emory.

Also, I should add that even though I'm not entirely interested in BC, I did grow up near the area before moving to the suburbs, have had 2 family members go UG there, and another family member works there, so do you think that would get me a good scholarship if I change my mind?

Doubt it, unless the last family member is a law school higher-up. You should be auto-admit at BC regardless of connections. Don't know about $$, though.

Texas, Vandy, Woostle, and Cornell and almost definitely out.

In and UNC, UGA, Wake, NC.

Apply to Emory.

I was in at Texas with very similar stats; it's worth the application.

Sure, but don't expect much of it. Below both medians.
