2.3, 178 LSAT

Hey guys,




This is for the next cycle(I am currently working at my friend's photography company).

I know HYS is out of the way, but do I have any realistic shot at any t-14 schools(Georgetown or Northwestern?)

I am willing to go anywhere at this point right now.

I have zero to none soft(except a year of work experience at friend's company).

I can't say for sure, but my LOR are just average I think.

My gpa is very low, because my science major just raped the crap out of me my first two years of college(changed to poli-sci later

and was around 3.4..I am just terrible with chemistry :( ).


What do you think guys? I would appreciate any feedback or input.

Thank you!

Holyyy crap. You are quite the splitter my friend. You're probably in for an incredibly unpredictable cycle. Just blanket the T-14 (not HYS) and hope for the best I suppose.

Gotta throw some of the splitter-friendly Tier 1s an app as well. I'm thinking WUSTL, Illinois, GW, Emory. There's so little data on that big of a split so who knows how this cycle will turn out.

Chicago is notoriously splitter friendly, though their most recent full GPA range only started at 3.14...

OP:

Your syntax is slightly off. Are you a nonnative English speaker? I think if you art, this may impact your cycle favorably. It will give adcomms a reason to accept you, as your LAST does a lot for them.

Obviously a flame. When someone tries to justify a 2.3 = flame. No one is that stupid. They would have said: I just didnt give a shit in classes, and a 3.4 in poli sci haha

correct response: Northwestern with the most remote chance at GULC. Otherwise, non-T14

I've never really seen GPAs quite that low on either schools graph accompanied by LSATs that high. However, there are somewhat similar results that lead me to think you have a shot at Northwestern at least
