So I scored 167 on my first try on the October 2015 LSAT. I'm a senior at a California state school majoring in Business Law. I've been working full time as a paralegal for the past 2 years at a firm. One of my rec letters is my professor who is a partner at one of the largest firms in the world and he attended UCLA law. I'm of Armenian descent. I'm guessing they don't care if it falls under "white". I also filed for my LLC and began conducting business in the last 6 months.
What are my chances at UCLA? Should I even bother applying to any T14 schools?

Retake is the best course of action since you have only taken the LSAT once. Otherwise, Cornell, Georgetown & Michigan are all possible--but likely very expensive with your numbers.
Outside of the T-14, you should be able to get scholarship money.

Congrats on your score, but definitely retake. Your softs sound good, but it would only benefit you to take it a second time assuming that you focus on your worst sections and perform better the second time around.

Well, UCLA is technically out of T-14...CanadianWolf wrote:Retake is the best course of action since you have only taken the LSAT once. Otherwise, Cornell, Georgetown & Michigan are all possible--but likely very expensive with your numbers.

You are likely to be admitted to UCLA. Not sure about scholarship money, however.
