Chances at the University of South Carolina Law: 2.9/163

I'm applying early to the University of South Carolina's law school in the fall. My scores are 2.9 GPA, and 163 LSAT (Only took it once).
I'm wondering what the members of this board think my chances of being accepted are. I think UNC is out of my league considering my low GPA.

Any advice would be great.

I would say if you applied early you would get in, at very minimum a waitlist. My LDAS GPA was 2.93 but my undergrad GPA is a 3.63 (bad first year) and my LSAT was 155 and I got wait listed there, but I applied late in the cycle.

Very good. UNC isn't out because of your GPA either. A few more points (3 or 4? I'm guessing...) on the LSAT would probably do it for UNC or Wake.

Do you want to work in SC? Are you from SC? Do you know how super-fucked SC's economy is?
