2.98/159- chance me for 2010 Forum

[eagles86]

Background: - good recs, several political internships etc
- will include addendum for GPA

Academics: - 2.1 gpa freshman year (very rough start, wrong major at a school known for grade deflation- boston univ), changed major...grades got better overnight
- transferred after sophomore year to comparably ranked school 3.4 gpa sophomore- senior years.

Rutgers- Newark (in-state): good bet right now according to numbers
Rutgers- Camden (in-state)
Villanova
Miami-
Seton Hall


Surprinsingly 54% odds at Miami on lawschoolcalculator even not being a URM....clearly would be in with grades from final 3 years only, so theres hope
Will take LSAT again in June b/c im more awake in the afternoon....happy to postpone law school for a year if i raise score.

I'm running with a 3.2/159, and I'll probably be out at Villanova. I think you'll have a good shot of getting into Rutgers and Seton Hall. Not familiar with Miami.

WL at Miami. Non-URM with basically same #s (who applied really early, too) was waitlisted this cycle. Retake if you want UM.

The person who was waitlisted could have had a downward grade trend or messed up something on his app. The fact that my gpa is solid after the 1st year should help
