I have a 3.45, 161 LSAT, submitted my application 2 days ago, with everything completely done.
I happen to think i have a strong personal statement as well. Chance?
How about Hastings? Same situation, but also think i applied strongly for LEOP. Chance?
Thanks.

Barring URM status, you are a likely reject from both.
I would recommend either retaking or readjusting your goals accordingly.

Damn. Also applied to Loyola Marymount, San Diego, and Santa Clara. I'm expecting to get into all of those.
Was really hoping for UCD or Hastings though. Perhaps LEOP can come through for Hastings.

I definitely tried to sell URM hard in my personal statements though. But i guess i should expect the worst and hope for the best.

Hmm. interesting that you guys think i depend solely on URM. Online predictor suggested i'd at least be considered, and i thought being a reasonably early applicant would help.
I'll admit i am none of the URM's mentioned above, but i'm hoping that my socioeconomic background coming from immigrant FOB parents and community will play some part, perhaps atleast getting me LEOP at hastings.
Like i said, i really like my personal statement! Guess we shall see though. Hopefully you guys are wrong this time!

Oh, i should also note that my cousin who comes from an almost identical upbringing as myself did get into Hastings through LEOP. He had a 3.7 and a 158 LSAT. He also got into Davis. Guess that's what gives me this bit of hope!
