Going To A School and Practicing In The Southeast

Post by Dlee954 » Fri Sep 04, 2015 7:45 pm

I can take constructive criticism.

I want to practice in the Southeast. The farthest north would be DC (Howard Law).

My ug gpa thru lsac is 3.05 (economics).
My practice tests have been sucky (143) but once I get faster and stop guessing then mid 150s with a goal of 160+.

My top choices if I score accordingly are UG Law, UF Law, Carolina Law or Howard Law?

Personally, I don't mind Midlaw, I just want to practice. Idk my specialty but business/corporate would mesh well with my economics background.

So, assuming I score within my desired range, are those feasible goals?

This is premature without an actual LSAT. Devote your mental energy to that.

That said, "mid law" isn't really a thing for entry level. You mentioned Howard: are you African-American?

Do you have ties? They tend to matter a lot for the type of places you'd want to work at.
