Why do you need to be IN Los Angeles?

Regardless, you need to retake to make up for your 3.1 GPA.

no where worth going to with your sub-par GPA and LSAT. You must retake, a 3.1 GPA is going to screw you over. You may be able to swing a t30 if you get a 170+, but even then, its doubtful. Seriously consider if you really want to go to law school.

You have a shot at Loyola (50/50). You are in at Southwestern.

I'm wondering why you keep posting and why your numbers keep changing.

Note she said has been scoring "175+" on pts, not on the official test. Perhaps the 160 is a previous score. Just saying.

Maybe. either way, too many posts on the topic. all details should have been disclosed in one post. how else can we give any decent advice?

I disagree with this. A 172+ will get OP into NU ED, and possibly one of MVP as well (ED).

And would be an auto admit at WUSTL, Indiana, Illinois, Minn.

Lawschool2014, you are seriously underestimating how much a 170+ LSAT will make up for a low GPA.

:roll:

Is it that hard to answer the OP's question?

(1) OP did not ask what schools she could get into if she had a better LSAT score.

(2) OP did not ask whether it would be worth attending a school in Los Angeles she could get into with those numbers.

If somebody asks "where should I eat Pizza Hut or Dominos?" I don't think there's anything wrong with suggesting different, better, pizza places.

Actually, there is. You are just being a dick. You clearly have no knowledge of the schools he would be considering.

I'm not sure you can fault someone for getting a 160 on the LSAT. It is 84th Percentile (or so).

OP, how the fuck do you go from a 175 to a 160? You're obviously bullshitting in one of these posts.

I believe you already answered that question sir. OP your chances at pepperdine and loyola are average to slim. Usc ucla.. none. Southwestern is your best bet
