3.89/159.5. What Schools? How Fucked?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: October 22nd, 2004 9:30 PM Author: clear indian lodge Last October I got a 161. I took Testmasters, studied hard, and was rewarded with a 158 this October. That gives me the great average of 159.5.
I went to a top private university and majored in economics. (In other words, nothing special about me.)
What schools should I shoot for? I'd like to get into a top 20 school. If I can't do that, I'd like to practice in the upper midwest (perhaps Chicago or Minneapolis) or on the west coast.
Yes, I know I'm a TTT. Yes, I know I'm retarded. Yes, I know I'm not prestigious. Yes, I know I'm a failure. Yes, I know baby Jesus is laughing at me. |

Date: October 22nd, 2004 9:46 PM Author: Painfully Honest Jet Locus Death Wish I'd guess around 15-20% but I don't really know. PT admissions are somewhat random.

Date: January 27th, 2005 4:34 PM Author: adventurous yapping trailer park pervert Subject: An Idea If you bust your chops to get an internship with a Senator/Congressman in DC and make some connections there, it is very possible that you could get a full-time staff position. Once aquired, getting into GULC PT may not be that difficult.
To get into GULC with the low LSAT (which will be rounded up to a 160 I think), you will really have to sell them on your future in politics or something else that you can only do in DC.
Good luck bro. |

Date: October 22nd, 2004 9:35 PM Author: Disrespectful box office love of her life A top 20 school seems highly unlikely unless there is something very special about you (i.e. you're native American, there is a building on campus named after your family, you won a Nobel prize). If you're in-state, you might have a shot at a top school that makes it easier for in-state people to get in- maybe Iowa, MN or UIUC. If you really like Chicago, Kent and Loyola are both well-respected and you will get a good job from either of these schools. Also, if you like Wisconsin, if you go to school in Wisconsin (UW or Marquette) you don't have to take the Wisconsin bar exam. Indiana U- Bloomington might be a good choice, or Ohio State. But if you really like Chicago, you should consider Loyola or Kent.
edit- you should apply to the midwestern top publics even if you're not in state, and I don't know if it actually is easier if you are in state, you'd need to research that. |

The bonus to Wisconsin and Marquette is that you don't need to take the bar exam to be admitted to the WI bar, so you can take the bar exam for another state and then you're admitted in 2 states and have extra marketability. If you like CA, maybe Santa Clara or Pepperdine would be good safeties.
ND might be worth a shot. I know a white girl with a 161 and a significantly lower GPA. |

your best hope in the top 20 range are the UC's, but they're not in the midwest.
try Minn, Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, and some T2's and T3's where you want to practice. you'll probably pull one of the midwest schools, though maybe not Minn or Iowa. |

is it worth $70? your prerogative. i don't think you have an awesome shot there, but if you really want to go to a top 20ish school you'd have to cast a wide net even though you can probably pull a very strong midwest T1. you'd probably be best off in the best school where you want to practice, Minnesota or another strong school in the region.
if it's a choice i'd spend the money on the rest of the T1 state schools in the midwest. |

I have a low GPA and a fairly high (maybe not compared to this message board...but compared to the rest of the country) LSAT score. Most schools I had applied to I had below their 25 percentile GPA and right about at their 75% LSAT. I didn't get in everywhere...but i wasn't an auto-ding anywhere. I haven't been rejected anywhere yet, either...but i've been deferred and put on hold at WashU, Minnesota, and I have yet to hear back from Emory. I am going to Iowa next year though...which is a top 20-25 school (depends on the year and which rankings you look at). Plus, Iowa gave me tons of money...which means I probably wasn't even borderline...
IMHO, you'd probably got a great shot at Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, UIUC. Less so at the other top-tier schools at BU (i've been told they are an LSAT whore), BC, etc. But, let them reject you...don't reject yourself by not applying! |

Date: February 8th, 2005 12:19 AM Author: clear indian lodge The difference between us is that you have a high LSAT and a low GPA, and I have a high GPA and a low LSAT. The LSAT is weighted more than GPA.
I was deferred at Minnesota and WUSTL, which is probably their way of rejecting me. So far, I have been accepted to Loyola University of Chicago, Chicago-Kent (+$10k/year), and Arizona State. |

Date: May 14th, 2005 8:02 PM Author: clear indian lodge The results are in --
In: Arizona State, IIT($$), Loyola-Chicago($$), Hastings
Out: USC, Boston College, Boston University, Berkeley, Illinois.
Waitlisted: Minnesota, Georgetown PT, SMU, Arizona, Washington and Lee, WUSTL.
Biggest surprise: SMU. Chiasu's calculator gave me an 80+% change of getting in. |

He was the biggest lazy ass ever, so obviously they do not judge student quality particularly well. I'd say Hastings or Loyola...or push the people at Georgetown...I had scores like yours (higher grades, but test was basically the same)...I go to GMU now, but know the feeling about the LSAT screwing you.

Date: May 14th, 2005 8:29 PM Author: flickering pit toaster Hey man, that is surprising about SMU. I may be opening up a spot for you next week though. I think I'm going to either A) go to GULC or B) defer a year. B is looking more and more likely. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=97906&forum_id=2#2784705) |

This is obviously tongue-in-cheek in the context of XOXOHTH. And no, he didn't come across as a clueless prestige-whore-- being clueless would have meant saying, "I only want to go to T14."
"I feel that if people apply to a reach school they should do so because they absolutley love the school and feel they belong there."
Where did he say that he didn't love Boalt etc.? He said that he preferred the Midwest. Yeah, well, so do I. I love the Midwest yet I would go to other schools for substantive, unrelated, reasons. |

I think you misread my first post. That was a preemptive strike against this board's predictable comments. |

Date: June 28th, 2005 4:55 PM Author: Marvelous Center To OP: most likely not getting into Minn - as posted on this site last week, estimated 25th/75th LSATs for incoming 1Ls are 163/167. Not female, not URM - not such a great chance. If you want to work in Minneapolis, Wisc or Iowa would be your best bet. Minneapolis firms are - in general - somewhat snobbish about hiring grads from schools not in the area. A friend of mine has a buddy who went to Yale, did well, came back to Msp, and was unemployed for 9 mos. I heard this throughout the second semester as I looked at firms for next fall, as well.
There are 3 others LS in the Cities - but all are T4 and you would have a really tough time if you ever wanted to work outside of MN. |
