Hello,

I sent in an early decision application to Columbia a while ago. What do you think my chances are?

3.82 from a Top 50 school, LSAT (taken once) 164, URM (female)
Good softs (10 or so internships with law firms/law enforcement agencies)
Great recommendations

But I'm not sure whether these are enough to because of my LSAT score...

Thanks!

I'm confused...the nature of your post makes it look like you think being female makes you a URM. :wink:

What type of URM are you?

would a white female not be considered URM?

Uh, no. White females, IIRC, are actually the most represented applicants.

There is pretty much no info on URMs ED'ing to Columbia, but in 2009 someone with the same GPA and lower LSAT was accepted, as was someone with a lower GPA but higher LSAT. Looks good, but the sample size is tiny/old.

Electric type. Strong against water type, weak against ground type.
