2.7/165 Army Ranger chances at W&L

I had to change the subject, no one responded.
I should hear back from W&L on Thursday and the anticipation is killing me. Here are my stats
165
2.7
Left school my junior year in 2001 with a horrible GPA and enlisted in the Army. When I returned to finish school, I completed my last 33 semester hours with a 3.9 GPA
For what it's worth I had a 30 minute phone interview with Mr Twitty, the admissions director.
I spent 8 years as an Army Ranger with 6 combat deployments.
Do I have a shot with my low GPA?

You should considering the fact you made a 165 on your Lsat.

My guess is unscientific, but I'd have to say yes. Your LSAT certainly gives you a fighting chance and having served is a good soft. Also, your country thanks you.

Your GPA is no longer a factor; the 30 minute phone interview with the admissions director will be the deciding factor.

It will be interesting to read of your decision this Thursday. In my opinion, you are in unless you did not interview well. OP: What is your impression of the interview ?

I think it went well. We talked about Ranger School and other random topics. We'll see tomorrow. I was accepted to Baylor today, which was a "deny" school by law school predictor and other various websites.

I've looked at lawschoolnumbers for hours on end and yes I understand that I'll most likely be waitlisted. That being said, I cannot find one applicant with my life experiences. I hope that makes a difference.

It's a good soft. Jah'kral trolls, but he does a pretty shitty job of it in that no one falls for it, and it's not funny.
