I know EVERYONE is posting asking their chances right now, but I am devastated. I was consistently scoring above 165 on my practice tests and when I got my score back I received a 159. I have already looked on the LSAT/GPA calculator websites, but I would like opinions too. I am applying to the U of Missouri. 159 LSAT and 3.90 GPA. Caucasian female, great resume. Chances?

What did the calculator say? For the U. of Missouri Law School Website: "The median LSAT score usually falls between a 156-161 and the median GPA between a 3.3 - 3.7."

You have a mid-median LSAT and above median GPA. I would say your chances are very good.

Thanks for the reply! I think I just needed an actual person to reassure me after the shock I received today.
