Chances with later LSAT
Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2018 9:53 am
Hey everyone,
I went onto the LSAC account today to check if my LORs had appeared and it says I am not registered for an LSAT. I'm fairly certain there's been a mistake because I clearly remember paying for the November LSAT after postponing the September LSAT. I will be calling LSAC this afternoon to fix it, but if I didn't register (I have to double check my credit card to confirm) I'm going to register for January 2019. Right now, I am consistently scoring 173-174 on my LSAT practices (been studying all summer). My question, If I can keep increasing my score until January and maybe bump up to the 176+ area, what would my chances be in the T14? Specifically Penn, NYU, and Columbia? How about outside the T14 such as Temple University?
Stats:
3.5 GPA
Biology Major with a bachelors in cell, molecular, and developmental biology.
2 years out of undergrad - originally was thinking medical school but changed my mind.
2 years work experience helping manage a orthopedic and pain management
By January I would have about 6 months of experience as a realtor.
I really don't want to wait another year and apply, though I know a high LSAT score and very early app next year would maximize my application. I am perfectly happy with going to Temple because my goal is to work in Philadelphia - Big Law.
