Above is a pretty cool calculator.
Are you a URM? If not… you should get at least 165 to be “considered”. If you manage to get above 170, you have a good chance (at around 50 50) with your gpa being so high.</p>

<p>A 165 isn’t going to cut it if the OP isn’t a URM. Also, law school numbers is far more useful than law school predictor. ([LSN</a> :: Welcome to LawSchoolNumbers.com](<a href=“Recently Updated J.D. Profiles | Law School Numbers”>http://www.lawschoolnumbers.com/))</p>

<p>Anyway, the OP needs a 163 or higher if he’s black (a 165 would virtually guarantee admission).</p>

<p>If the OP is Hispanic or Native American, a 167 or higher should give him an excellent shot, with a 170+ virtually guaranteeing admission.</p>

<p>If the OP is white or Asian, he needs a 170 minimum and excellent “soft factors,” such as internships, work experience, a prestigious undergraduate degree, etc. Even with a 175+, he would still need decent soft factors to stand a chance of getting in.</p>

<p>^ and this is isn’t wrong… why?</p>

<p>Not sure what you’re asking Riley john? But anyways, transfers is right, a 165 won’t cut it as a white man. OP could possibly get in with a 168-169, but this is unlikely. </p>

<p>Lawschool numbers is a much better indicator because it shows you specific people’s cycle.</p>

<p>If I have no internships, limited work experience, and mediocre EC’s, do I even have a shot at Stanford with a 170+ (3.95 gpa)? White male…</p>

<p>How much of a “soft” is the personal statement? Can a great PS overcome other poor softs?</p>

<p>It will really come down to your LSAT score. If you get a 175 or higher, you’ll have decent chances at Stanford. (Your chances will continue to improve as your score increases.)</p>

<p>However, you might be a better candidate for Harvard, as it cares far less about soft factors than do Stanford and Yale.</p>

<p>If you sell yourself as a candidate that will contribute to the “diversity” of SLS, you may increase your chances.</p>
