<p>Hello everyone,</p>
<p>I just recently graduated UCLA with a 3.54, and I transferred from PCC with a 3.72 GPA. My cumulative LSAC GPA is 3.65. To get into a top law school (UCLA or above), what type of LSAT score would I need? Specifically, UCLA, Columbia, or NYU law schools.</p>
<p>Extracurriculars: A few advocacy/activist groups, research in psychology, and one legal internship I will start this year. Additionally, a minority in the sense that I grew up in poverty. Finally, a paper I am working on with a tutor that could be published in a less-prestigious journal.</p>
<p>You can try the law school predictor to get a rough idea:</p>

<p>Oh wow, thank you so much!</p>
<p>Also, I was wondering to be under the URM status, what constitutes it? For example, I am an Asian American (which is not, I believe, underrepresented in higher education), but I come from poverty. Does URM only take into account race, or other factors as well?</p>
<p>URM only takes into account race. Law schools, like all organizations lawyers are part of, tend to be huge prestige whores, and having a diversity of economic backgrounds doesn’t really help your prestige like having a diversity of racial backgrounds.</p>
<p>Ahh okay thank you.</p>
