3.63/167 Forum

What range should I shoot for with a 3.63 ugpa and a 160 and 167 for LSAT scores? Do I have a shot at the lower T14 with an ED? I'm not an URM and I would call my soft factors average. On LSP I get a "Consider" for much of the bottom T14 schools with percentage ratings around 40%... in the experience of the TLS community could an ED bump this to better than 50-50 odds? Thanks in advance.

You're only shot at T14 is Cornell, and they don't ED. Expect to have a decent shot at schools WUSTL on down. Dicey at 15-18.

Thanks for your advice. Do you think having the 160 on the report is a significant disadvantage? Without it, do you think I would have a 50-50 shot at Duke/Uva/Gtown applying ED? I guess that's a moot point, seeing as how it's there anyway...

I know the general rundown of schools either averaging, taking the top score, or "looking at every score to get a complete picture of a candidate's performance." Do any experienced TLS'ers out there suggest an addendum for the score increase? I just don't want to seem like I'm making excuses.

Thanks in advance everyone.

The 160 doesn't hurt, as most schools in reality take the highest LSAT; it's your GPA and LSAT being below medians that hurts.

Don't write an addendum if the only thing you did was study more.

No shot at T14, UCLA, and Vandy, but good shot at everywhere else.
