Hi all, I've been wanting to practice law for awhile now, and was hoping you experts could gauge my chances of making my dream come true.

Attended West Point with electrical engineering degree.
GPA - 2.7 (not much to it, just didn't study as hard as I should have)
LSAT - 170, hoping to break into 175+
5 years in the Army, honorable discharge as Captain
I volunteer at animal shelters and will be a volunteer at big brother big sister program
I am perfectly fine with paying sticker price, as I see it as an investment to my future
I'm hoping to practice patent law, and will hopefully pass the US Patent Bar exam prior to applying

Hoping to land somewhere in T14, and I am willing to do anything to get in.

Chances of getting in, and increasing my chances would be greatly appreciated.

Will your veteran's benefits cover the cost of school?
