163, No UGPA, MA in Phil, West Coast Only Forum

[djjf39]

Hi All,

Stats: 163 June '10 LSAT (-8 from PT avg), retaking in OCT, BA from Evergreen so no UGPA, MA in PHIL from top program (3.9 GPA), good to excellent LORs, some other marginal softs

Looking to practice in WA long-term.

Questions:

If I am looking for money, then how far into the 170s do I need to drive my LSAT to have a shot at a full ride from UW/Lewis and Clark?

Right now w/o the retake what are my chances at:

UC Hastings
UC Davis
Lewis and Clark
UW

Thanks

UW doesn't do full rides as far as I know. You probably won't get in with a 163 unless you are a WA resident. I am not sure about L&C and $$$. Hastings and Davis don't do full rides either. You should probably look at Seattle Univ or some CA T2s for west coast $$$. If WA is your target market you should probably either pay up at UW or take money at Seattle. Most CA schools don't place much in WA (other than Stanford and Berkeley, perhaps).

With no GPA, you have a chance only at schools with LSAT medians at or below 163, which include Davis, UW, and L&C.
