Chance my for T25 law schools?

Graduate School Law School
1

<p>I am a senior graduating this semester with a BS in history at public university in Arizona (I'm from California)
I'd like to go back to California for law or grad school but would make an exception for Michigan, Virginia, Chicago, Yale, or Penn (although I don't really have a chance for those schools)
I received a fee waiver for UC Hastings so I am going to apply there as well as UC Davis, Irvine, UCLA, and USC</p>

<p>Cumulative GPA is 3.67, and based on practice LSATs i can predict at least 162; I'm also a black male if that helps.</p>

<p>don’t settle for Hastings.</p>

<p>Spend the summer (or whatever time) to rock the LSAT. It could mean the difference between no jobs and attending LS for nearly free.</p>

<p>Don’t settle.</p>

<p>Is Law School Predictor reliable?</p>

<p>URM makes USC/UCLA reachable…</p>

<p>Law school predictor is fairly reliable, I’ve found. With a 3.67 and AA male, you’d be crazy to settle for a 162. Even a 165 could get you into a great school.</p>

<p>Demo and Blue have the credited response. Take the time to study and raise your score, even it it means starting next year.</p>

Answering the question that wasn’t asked (because I’m good at that): don’t tell us what you got on the LSAT while sitting at your kitchen table munching on chocolate-chip cookies; tell us what you got when you took an actual LSAT that counts for actual law school admissions. </p>

<p>That said, work your tail off to get that score up to a 165. The T14 are well within reach if you do so. </p>

<p>As an African American, you should be able to pull a few of the top 10 schools. Definitely apply to all of the schools ranked 6-14. You should also then include UCLA, USC, GW, BC, and Fordham. Then throw in two local safeties - Hastings and Davis are decent safeties for you. That would be a decent list of schools for your stats and your affirmative action bump.</p>

<p>If you’d never even consider non-Cali schools other than the T14, then drop GW, BC, and Fordham. Still a decent list but you’d have less targets.</p>
