Hi Everyone,

Looking for some advice primarily because the past few cycles have been weird for splitters according to Reddit/LSN/etc.

GPA: 3.65
LSAT: 175
Softs: TA Business Law Course, Mock Trial, Leadership position in a club, 2 internships - 1 in legal and compliance and 1 in internal strategy.

K-JD.

Chances at CCNP? Chances at $$$ at lower T14? Chances at T14 at all?

Appreciate any advice.

Should note, Penn is my top choice - goal is BigLaw and very little tangible difference between Penn and CCN in BL outcomes I believe. I hear Penn really values GPA - is my GPA too low? Would I qualify for any merit aid because of my LSAT?

You’re pretty likely to get admitted to most of the T13, potentially with substantial aid. Apply to H on down. Unfortunately looks like Penn is going to be tough for your numbers. Since your goals are generic biglaw, go to whichever T13 has the lowest COA.
