Can I get into UCLA/USC?

Post by seb15 » Tue Oct 25, 2011 3:14 am

Hi All,

I leave myself to the mercy of TLS. Be kind:

Undergrad GPA: 3.3 in IR. Strong upward trajectory in my GPA. Finished my final year with a 3.9. Had a shaky start to things. Also, have some community college scores that are very low, but classes were taken whilst I was still a high schooler.

LSAT: 164-165-169

Strong softs. Two Masters (in IR and Economics) from international universities (one is from a top 20 worldwide university).

Interned for an NGO in DC.

Run my own editing firm. Currently emily 3 people (management skills).

Probably not. Softs are nice but not gonna overcome your GPA.

LSN shows me as waitlisted for both UCLA and SC... You don't think my softs + a powerful statement and addendum will help me get over the hump?

Looks like no one who posted on LSN got over the hump. So probably not. Your softs are nice, just not enough to overcome the 3.3. Still worth the apps though. Hope for a miracle.
