<p>SAT: 1900 </p>

<p>i went thru a really hard time during my freshman year, and that is the reasons for my grades. i know that i screwed up..and i want to go back and fix it...but i cant. i am different now. i want to major in law and make my mother proud of me.... i also heard that princeton doesn't look at freshman grades, is that true?. because i want to go to princeton the most. is there law school good? </p>

<p>are their any chances of getting into princeton? will my story help or anything? please. i need advice.</p>

<p>I would normally say yes, but your grades are not that good. BTW, you had a C sophomore year… that can mess you over. You should still give it a try if you want it.</p>

<p>Princeton doesn’t have a law school. A running gag among lawyers is to say that one studied at Princeton Law, since it doesn’t exist.</p>

<p>You can’t major in law as an undergrad. You can major in pre-law at some institutions, but it’s not really worth it since most of the stuff you learn in that major will be re-taught to you once you enter law school anyway.</p>

<p>Here’s some more general advice for you. Don’t do something for the sake of making someone else proud of you. Find something that you love and that you could see yourself enjoying doing for the rest of your life. As Steve Jobs said, “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.”</p>

<p>I do not believe your story will help much, sorry. Your test score and ECs will not make you a competitive applicant at one of most selective schools. however I’m sure you WILL be competitive at some of the other schools on your list. Best of luck.</p>
