Yo Guys. I need your help. I took my first lsat and got a 165, which I improved to a 173 on this last cycle.

My ug is Berkeley if that helps.

Also I run a charity that will be statewide by the time they read my application.



So

a: what are my chances at Yale and Harvard?
b: should I be considering doing ed at Columbia with my past score on the books?


Thanks guys

a) decent, especially at H (I'm skeptical that they actually average)
b) no. oh dear god, no. you should be getting $-$$ from CCN.

Lol, no to the topic question.

Y is a crapshoot, depends on the overall quality of your application.

H... likely. If anything is going to stop you from an H acceptance, it's not going to be the retake.
