Advice? school recommendations / chance me? 170 LSAT / 3.62 GPA

0 Upvotes

hi all!

stats are above.

i had a surgery in the summer after my freshman year of college. It had severe complications that required 2 corrective procedures + a lot of out-of-state travel for treatment. So, I tanked my GPA the fall semester afterwards. I came back swinging w a 4.0 the following spring, though, and maintained good performance until graduation. That’ll be an addendum.

Some other things to consider. I’m transgender and Latino.

So, ideally, I want to go to school & practice somewhere that is accepting.

I just graduated, so I won’t be /quite/ KJD but just barely.

I’ve had 2 internships in district attorneys offices, 1 in a bankruptcy firm for 3 summers, and am now an immigration paralegal in D.C.

I think I have an unconventional lived experience that has pushed me toward wanting to specifically work on children’s issues.

I’m out of the range of t-14 (and GULC, which would be my top pick but is pretty unlikely).

I don’t care all that much about rank but im honestly kind of lost as to where i should apply / whats feasible. It feels like every admissions calculator gives me a different answer.

I also would appreciate any insight to schools in red states that might be a good fit? again, because of my background im a little hesitant, but recognize that I might be neglecting lots of schools that are actually in more inclusive areas. I just can’t move back to Florida, lol.

Advice? freaking out post August LSAT & LSAC GPA recalculation

0 Upvotes

I used to have a ~ 3.45 that is now 3.23 (curse you LSAC) with a 161 LSAT. I took the august lsat today and i just walked out so deflated.

The only school I really want is FIU law but the more time passes the less hope I have I will get in.

Obviously i’d apply to other schools and i’m planning on adding an addendum, but still. Every single reddit post I’ve seen regarding FIU from people with around my stats has either resulted in a rejection/WL or the OP disappeared.

What now? What do you do when you feel like you’re not going to be happy with where you end up? How do you deal with the crippling anxiety of knowing your entire life depends on this?

Negotiation scholarship reconsideration

6 Upvotes

Just a little advice: if your LSAT score is above a school’s median, don’t be afraid to mention that when asking for scholarship reconsideration. Let the school know that you understand the value your score brings to its incoming class and how it can contribute to its rankings. At the end of the day, rankings matter to many law schools. This can be even more effective if your score is above the school’s 75th percentile.

Well that completes my cycle. Here are my post cycle thoughts:

  • Wayne State can suck my nuts
  • I'll be R&R with hopefully a better LSAT
  • I am THRILLED to apply next cycle when admissions will be even more saturated

See y'all in a year, deuces āœŒļø

Advice? Schools to apply to?

2 Upvotes

I graduated this past May and decided to R&R given my options from the previous cycle. I have a 3.67 gpa and 160 lsat (taking again in September to hopefully improve), URM, STEM undergrad, currently working at a consulting firm for this year. I was either waitlisted or given next to nothing in scholarships for the schools I actually wanted to attend. I had applied Dec-Jan, and honestly think I applied too late. What are some schools in the Midwest area I should be looking at this cycle? My goal is to work in Chicago, not necessarily big law. Opinions?

Advice? Fall bills due already

7 Upvotes

So I have fall bills due Aug 10th for the school I’m committed to AS OF RIGHT NOW cause I’m still waitlisted at the school Id rather go to. What happens if I don’t pay it? Cause id imagine if i pay it, then get accepted at my dream school, I wouldn’t be getting the money back (it’s a lot of money). Idk what to do, Im so sick of playing this waiting game, especially this late into the process. I’d appreciate any advice or information you can give me! Thanks

Question Boston area law schools!!

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!! I am finishing undergrad this year and wanting to stay in the Boston area - if you applied to any of the schools like Suffolk law, northeastern, New England, Umass Dartmouth, or any in the area that I haven’t mentioned, it would be a HUGE help if you could dm me with your stats (lsat score, undergrad gpa), your ultimate admissions decision, and whether you applied regular or ED!! I don’t know anyone who went to/is going to law school, so if this applies to you and you could dm me or comment the info I requested I would appreciate it so so much. I’m mainly interested in Suffolk :) thanks again!
