Chances at a top 10? top 14? I have a very strong, unusual personal statement and rec letters. I appreciate the feedback :mrgreen:

Not very strong, to be honest. Check out http://www.lawschoolnumbers.com for people with similar numbers at the top 10 schools. They were almost uniformly rejected or waitlisted.

Hmm what about Vandy? I've been to LSN and I've done the law school predictor... is there any information besides those two sites that might be helpful? personal testimonials maybe?

Law school admissions are generally 99% based on your numbers, no matter what the individual schools tell you. Personal testimonials won't tell you anything that numbers sites won't.

Granted this was 2 years ago, but a 3.9/168 (military vet) got me G-town, Duke, Michigan (attending), and wait-listed at Columbia/NYU.
