Only significant soft I have is 5 years military service (6 by time I matriculate somewhere). Also have several C&F issues: 2 misdemeanor arrests between the ages of 16-18, one for underage drinking and the other for battery. The short story for the battery is that I got in a fight with some guy who was sleeping with my then-girlfriend. I'm super excited I got a 176. I never in a million years expected a score that high, and I honestly think a lot if it was luck on RC. If there's any information I left out please let me know and I'll shed some light on it.

Edit: I'm 22 now, so the C&F events were 4 years ago. Also, looking at applying next cycle instead of this one.
6 years of military service, high GPA and high LSAT?

Enjoy Cooley.

7 yrs of military experience by the age 23? Did you enlist when you were 16?

Given how long ago your arrests occurred, and your intervening military service, I'd be surprised if they had any real effect on your cycle.

Yale and Stanford, with their small classes have the luxury of declining, applicants with perfect numbers, so I suppose it's possible that they could use your arrests as an excuse to reject you. I still doubt they would give the arrests much weight. I'd be really surprised if you didn't get into HLS with those numbers.

No one will care at all about the underage drinking, by the way.
