Hello guys,

I just graduated from Cornell with 3.98 GPA and got 170 on my december LSAT.

However, I took LSAT three times (1st: Cancel, 2nd: 163) Will my 163 hurt my chances at top-tier schools?

Moreover, I still didn't apply to schools, but is it too late to apply to them now?

Btw, my softs are just okay(2 years of military service(non-US military), internship at a finance company, TA in the accounting course etc.)

Lastly, do I have a chance at Harvard and Stanford?

Thanks for your help guys!

McDonalds is currently accepting applications at its Jackson, Mississippi location on Forrest Avenue. It is a nice location with growth potential. Did you consider applying to work in Jackson?

We're not really sure what HYS do with multiple LSAT scores, though the rest of the schools don't really care much anymore, if at all. I think you have a shot at S, depending on whether they treat foreign service similarly to how they treat US service. H will be a tough one to crack given your 25%ile LSAT score and the fact that they more likely do care about multiple scores.

Very strong shot at Columbia on down though

163 will be ignored. I don't know if your non-US military will help you nearly as much as US military would.

Edit to say I don't think you'll get into HYS but you should apply as per the list that website will spit out for you.
