I am scoring a 169 on my practice LSATs, but have a low low gpa 2.25 (my transcript is 3.2), due to test anxiety, that I overcame my junior year, when I take the June LSAT:
If I score a 169 with my 2.25, is there any chance of landing a Tier 1 (20-50) acceptance? I will be applying in the Fall, and will have one more semester left before I officially graduate, so when I apply halfway through my last year, another semester of 4.0 could bring the gpa up to a 2.5 which will help a tad. So is there anyway when I apply in the Fall, in the addendum could I allude to the increase in grades that could occur, and some of the schools Tier 1 could waitlist me?
Is 169 enough to offset the gpa? Do schools waitlist you if you havent officially graduated when you apply and then if you have say a semester of A's, that can maybe tip the scales?
what are my chances? Forum

Re: what are my chances?
Test anxiety when all of your law school classes are 1 test for your whole grade is probably going to be a problem if you end up going.
You are such a super-splitter that it is impossible to predict. I'd still blanket every school from the T20 and down that you are interested in.

Come back when you have an official LSAT score. Don't waste our time with hypothetical situations.
