Chance for HLS? 173/4.0 non-urm
Posted: Sun Oct 04, 2020 10:55 am
I really want to go to the Boston area so HLS is the dream.
I have a 173 and a 4.0 in a liberal arts major. I do have a computer science minor (which was almost as many courses as my major) and a language minor. I go to a decent top 50 school. As for extracurriculars, I am president of my schools pre-law society and have a few executive board roles in some really random clubs. I don't have any really interesting hobbies besides web development.
I wrote my statement on going into health law and my internships are related to the field of public health. I had one prestigious federal internship and 2 other small ones, all in gov. I'm a little worried cuz I'm trying to go to law school straight out of undergrad so I don't have as much work experience as other people. I do have a few other part time jobs but I know this isn't what they're looking for. So what are my chances for HLS? I feel like I have the stats but I'm nothing exceptional in terms of softs. I'm nervous that this cycle is going to be more competitive, but those are rumors I think. Thanks everyone!!
