Chances? Also, 170 is below their 75 percentile.

Better than 60%? Are you in state by any chance?

Apply to the midwestern schools, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, WUSTL, Indiana, and other lower Tier 1 schools in regions you wish to practice. Good luck.

Hey Desert Fox, I thought Georgetown and Northwestern would probably wish for higher LSAT, or am I wrong?

Since you have no WE, NU is out too, so T-14 is shut down (unless you want to ED to Georgetown and see if they bite).

AC doesn't give a boost at all @ NU?

It will count as regular work experience. I doubt it would be any better than working in an office for 2 years. But it gets you past the W/E requirement.
