<p>I'm currently a student at NYU as an undergrad and I have received my LSAT scores. I got the target score which I wanted, 172. I was hoping for anything over 170. </p>
<p>However, I'm worried about my GPA which isn't exactly stellar. It's slightly over a 3.5. My major was economics and some courses were harder than others. I'm worried because I saw that even kids with 3.6 GPAs were rejected. Also, I'm not a URM. I'm Indian. </p>
<p>So, I just wanted feedback from people. I don't think being an undergrad student at the school will have many benefits. Thanks.</p>
<p>If this cycle is as uncompetitive as I think it is, you will get into some T14s… if only Georgetown or UVA. NYU is certainly doable but it’s more of a stretch than Georgetown or UVA. Maybe UPenn if you feel like it.</p>
<p>I think you have a shot. As far as going there for undergrad, yes, it could give you an (ever so slight) edge. Congrats on the 172 and good luck.</p>
<p>P.S. I agree with bluebayou; make sure your essay and recs are solid and stand out. Let us know how it goes!</p>
