how to increase chances of getting into top 15 law schools

Graduate School Law School

<p>I am currently a junior at UC Berkeley Haas and majoring in business administration. I am entering my senior year this fall. I plan on applying to law school after graduation. I am aiming to get into top 15 law schools. My grades slipped this year a little bit, but if I receive A's in my two classes this summer I will have a 3.3 GPA entering my fall semester. </p>

<p>I have been doing my research on applying to law school, but I figured I would gather some opinions on here too. I understand that LSAT and GPA are very important when applying to law school. Does it help that I go to Haas, it is ranked as one of the top 15 business schools in the country...or do law schools not care what undergrad you go to? </p>

<p>What else can i do to increase my chances of getting into top law schools?</p>

<p>Getting into a T14 law school with a 3.3 will be very tough. You’ll need either a very high LSAT score or a major hook (such as being a URM).</p>

<p>Since you have one year of college remaining, you can salvage your GPA by earning as high a GPA as possible next year. Beyond that, your LSAT score will be critical, so you should spend at least six months studying for it. Also, law schools won’t care that you went to Haas.</p>
