got a disappointing 169 on the latest LSAT, will be retaking in Oct and hoping to score a 172+ but still have to move forward with applications at this point.

2.7uGPA, strong upward trend in final semester but overall gutter fire in this area

wrapping up a masters degree in a top 5 ranked program (policy/administration field), great gpa here although it doesn't count for law school

will have 5 years full-time WE by time of application, average office job nothing spectacular, 1 promotion recently

very strong LORs from work and grad school

goal: depending on how much loans i will have to take out but probably big law for a bit and PI/gov't work after 3-4 years

What are you asking? T14 chances? I'd say pretty damn slim with a 2.7.

completely agree, any t-14 is a super reach for me. i am looking at t-25, specifically GW, WUSTL and Vandy.
