Evening mates,
So I keep getting e-Mails from USC and I also got a fee waiver. I'm not sure if this is indicative of my chances, since my numbers aren't quite there.
I have a 162 and 161 LSAT and a 3.7 GPA. i'm thinking they're incentivizing me to apply just so they can reject me. What do you all think?

Re: USC Fee Waiver?
They give fee waivers to those above their GPA medians the previous year. It's only $16 to apply, so why not?

Re: USC Fee Waiver?
True. I just wanted to know what the real probability of me getting accepted is. Nevertheless, I am only applying this cycle as a safety in case I fuck up my June 2012 LSAT... again.alevin wrote:They give fee waivers to those above their GPA medians the previous year.

I got one last year with similar numbers and got in. You never know, but your probability of getting in is extremely low. Just check out lawschoolnumbers.com.

Re: USC Fee Waiver?
Yeah. It seems that for this cycle, there aren't applicants that reported that they got waitlisted or rejected, so it's hard to tell. I guess there's a chance that they have a remarkably low number of applicants this cycle and are desperate.chimp wrote:I got one last year with similar numbers and got in.

Re: USC Fee Waiver?
Just look at cycles from other years. Also, do you bring any diversity/uniqueness to the table? That could help you. But, like I said, your chances are extremely low especially this late in the cycle.Mr.Binks wrote:Yeah.

Re: USC Fee Waiver?
Yeah, my thoughts also. Overall, I'm a pretty average applicant. No extreme softs or anything of the sort. Oh, well. I won't hold my breath for an acceptance, but I guess it'd be a nice school to go to if my June score comes back disappointingly low.chimp wrote:Just look at cycles from other years.
