chances at t-14 Forum

[kinglarry22]

I have a bad undergrad GPA, 3.3, but have been working for 2 years at a major firm in SF. Also worked and fundraised for a non profit immigration legal center from which i got a letter of rec from a Stanford law alum. I have 2 other good letters of rec, from an employer and from a professor. I'm a URM, Mexican, and i got a 172 on the LSAT. My reaches are HYS but I'm also looking at USC and Cornell. What do you guys think my chances are?

Cornell cause im pretty far to the left and USC cause im originally from Southern California.

I think that your chances are very excellent at Cornell & USC, and worth applying to any school of interest to you. Handicapping chances at Yale & Stanford is difficult since they are small law schools which seem to pay a great deal of attention to other factors once your numbers get you into serious consideration. And, as a URM with an LSAT of 172 and a decent GPA, you should be seriously considered for admission. In short, apply & see what develops.

Choosing schools based on ideological bent? Can't say it's the first time but it is always lolworthy.

Cornell cause im pretty far to the left and USC cause im originally from Southern California.

Then go to Berkeley. Or NYU.

You think you have a chance at HYS but no chance at NYU and Berkeley? What the fuck?
