Title says it all. I'm fairly new to the law school process, so any and all help is appreciated. I'm a civil engineering major who probably shouldn't have been an engineering major (no real interest in math/science). I go to a small, private engineering school in New Jersey that is known regionally, but, likely not known nationally. Wondering if it is wise to include my fraternity on my application as well?

Chances are pretty good at all but YHS. Even there you have a slight shot, so apply anyway.

Thanks, is the rigor of an engineering degree considered when looking at my application?

Not to the extent it should be but it helps somewhat. Still consider yourself a 3.6 when you look at sites like LSN.
