LSAT 150 Cumm GPA 3.83 URM AA Parent... Chances?!?! Forum

[Alwaysinstock86]

Hello All!

I am absolutely petrified, and I don't know what to do. I just received my LSAT score and it's, by my standards, very discouraging. I received a 150 but I didn't have too much time to prepare as I am still acquiring my undergrad and I am a single father of two (I hate using that card) but that's the real deal. I have am cumulative GPA from USC of 3.83 and I want to go to usc law school. Does anybody know my chances? What should I do. I've signed up for December, but I'm still in school so I won't have time to really dive in. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

USC isn't happening with a 150. Retake when you've had time to study seriously, even if it means you have to wait until next cycle. A 160 will give you a great shot. A 165 will probably seal the deal.

What if I do not have time to wait for the next cycle? Should I take my chances with December?

And, what do you mean, "you'll win."

Thanks guys.

It's likely you do have the time. You simply dont want to wait.

Well, because of my situation with my children, I'd either have to enter the workforce after my undergrad, or go to law school. If I go into the workforce, not sure how long I'd be there until I could revisit furthering my studies.
