3.4 to 3.45 / 175

Hello all,

I'm a long-time lurker and currently a very stressed applicant.

I've run through myLSN, etc. but found the results unreliable because 1.) its a very small sample size and 2.) probability of acceptance with these numbers has changed significantly over the last couple of years at a number of schools.

Top-10 UG (grade-deflator), upward trend, good softs (nothing insane,) straight out of UG.

Aiming for CCNP.

Numbers indicate that I have a good chance at NYU. Columbia seems to be a coin toss, but appears to be somewhat more lenient towards splitters in this range over the last couple cycles/cycle.

Thoughts/anecdotes,etc?

Help really is very appreciated. I'd be glad to give anyone who responds some advice with their own concerns (I'm no expert but I'm an objective third-party.)

Similar number, My GPA is a bit higher (still below 25%) and my LSAT is a little lower (still above 75%). I'd say you are more or less good at NYU unless you put together a really subpar application. Chicago is probably out, Columbia you are 50/50 or so. A solid Why Penn should make you a lock there as well.

Chicago is definitely not out. I would be shocked if you didn't get at least one of CCNP (you'll probably get more than one actually).
