LSAT 162/GPA 3.5
I'm a junior in college majoring in accounting (CPA track) with an LSAT score of 162 and a GPA of 3.5. I am from Nebraska, and go to college in Wisconsin.
Money will be a big factor in my decision to go to law school...what kind of money do you think that this could get me? I don't have my heart set on any particular school or city, but am just wondering in general if law school is something I'll be able to afford with these scores.
Thanks so much!

Re: LSAT 162/GPA 3.5
Why do you want to go to law school? I'd recommend working for a few years first. This would allow you to save up some money and spend more time making the decision. Plus, a few years experience as a CPA would make you more desirable for certain positions.

Just get higher grades and a higher LSAT and you will get plenty of scholarship money from schools. You've got plenty of time to do both.
Also I'm locking your other thread since this one seems to be getting responses.

RETAKE!!!!!!!!! You should be ashamed of yourself!
JK.....I have the same LSAT score ha ha
Oh and to actually answer your question it depends on where you apply and where you want to go. If you're above their 50-75 % gpa/lsat median you should be getting decent money.

Re: LSAT 162/GPA 3.5
Why are you taking the LSAT?
I was walking down this road and about faced for an Accounting job while going back to school to take Accounting classes. Law school is a 3 year commitment+ 200k+ in debt for a chance at a 150k job. Why not just pound out the CPA, go into Tax, and make 70k straight out with no debt or opportunity cost?
Note- I am risk averse which is the primary reason I followed this path.
