Looking to do Health Law. I think BU and GW are realistic options, but would ideally love to go to Georgetown. Do I stand a chance with my current stats? Any/all thoughts appreciated!

I think you definitely have a chance. Do you have any work experience or other strong softs? If so I would really expect you to get in. Just make sure you have a strong PS.

3.67 / 170 were their medians last year.

I'd say you have pretty solid shot. Worth an app at least.

Thanks for your quick responses.

I've worked in healthcare/research for 4 years (with a number of publications) and did a varsity sport and student government VP in college. I've also been taking additional courses since graduation, including grad-level course currently (don't know how much law schools care about that, but its a health law course - which is my area of interest - and i'm doing really well in it).

Have been working a lot on my PS as I figured that would potentially make or break my applications...
