Hi All-

New to the forum. Have a couple of apps out but wanted advice on my chances/suggested targets.

-3.43 UGPA, top 25 Uni (not that it matters)
-166 LSAT
-2 yrs work experience at a V20 firm in NYC with sterling recs. from managing partner and a practice head

Open to any and all comments. Thanks!!

Check out http://www.mylsn.info for chances.

I'd swap out the lawyer recs for professor recs but probably won't make a difference

I guess you're a mild splitter, but I suspect 166 will get you in at WUSTL and below.

What do you want to do and where do you want to do it?

Would prefer to do policy work or public service longterm but big law would be nice for a few years to tackle debt

Big law (especially in DC) is a big time long shot with current numbers

Retake if you want big law
