<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I did my B.A. (English Hons.) from University of Delhi with 57%. The University topper got a 64% score.
In college, I was an active member of theater society and acted in a number of plays. I was a part of the college basketball team. I also accompanied a local band as a lead guitarist (and still do).</p>
<p>I studied for my LL.B. at University of Delhi and graduated with a low 49% score. The University topper got a 63% score.
I was basically dormant and did not participate in extra-curricular activities during the law school years. Although I studied very hard to get a better score but failed. Although I did 3 good internships and also got published in a prestigious journal. I also represented my college at some National level Moot Court competitions. I also did a clerkship under a Judge of the High Court, Delhi.</p>
<p>Post law school, I worked in a lawyers chamber for a year and have worked on various constitutional law, taxation law, corporate law, etc. matters.</p>
<p>I wish to get admitted to a J.D. program in one of the top 10 law schools in the U.S. because I wish to study for the J.D. more sincerely and thoroughly. My long term goal is to go for a masters and a doctorate. And eventually join the academia. </p>
<p>So hypothetically, with a very good LSAT score, do I stand a chance to get into a top 10 U.S. law school, even though the aggregate score of my first degree in Law is really bad?</p>
<p>Also, is it a good idea to go for a J.D.?</p>
<p>I need your support and best advice because this can make or break a lot of things for me.</p>
<p>Please help.</p>
<p>Thanking you.</p>
<p>Regards.</p>
