3.7 GPA 170

Post by Poo-T » Thu Jan 03, 2013 9:37 am

3.7 LSDAS (3.9 at Community College, but only a 3.35 at University - rising trend in grades)
159 LSAT
170 LSAT

Chances at:
Duke
UNC ($$$$)
Wake Forest ($$$$)

Thanks guys.

Also the university was UNC if that means anything.

At least tell me this, what are most law schools going to consider more: the LSDAS or the two transcripts separately?

They will only care about your LSAC GPA.

According to the law school numbers, Duke looks 50/50. But, on the other hand, some guy with similar numbers in another thread (with a slightly lower GPA) is being told that he doesn't really have a shot.

The point of rad lulz's post is that anecdotal experience means nothing outside of URM admissions. Trust the data-driven sites like lawschoolnumbers.com. Anything that anybody else tell you is just speculation.

That's a good point. I prefer what the numbers say anyways. Thanks.

You're a lock at Duke, and probably with some $$. Enjoy.

You also have good shots at the rest of the T14 from NYU on down. You should apply to them all.

For real? :D
Is anyone else of a similar opinion?

I'll probably apply to NYU and maybe another T14 that seems interesting

See: http://myLSN.info/oyc2ub
89% chance of acceptance at Duke.

You should apply to every T14 from Columbia on down. Even if you don't want to go there, if they give you scholarship $ you can use them for leverage for scholarship negotiations at the schools you would prefer to go to.

In at Duke with some small money yes. In Penn and UVA ED.
