Top Law Schools

I only applied to one school - Uconn Law. I would get in-state tuition and live at home (saving myself lots of money), they have a strong IP program, and it's the only place I see myself at.

LSAT - 162
GPA - 3.9

I feel good about my "Why Law?" essay and my optional essay. Resume is solid (research assistantship in college, will have one year as an administrative assistant at a law firm under my belt by the fall). They give 'special consideration' to CT residents like myself. Haven't seen the recs, but I trust my endorsers.

So, what are my chances?

Enjoy Hartford.

I'd be positively shocked if you didn't get in. Unless you committed serious crimes recently, I'd say you are in, and possibly a little scholarship.

Thanks guys! Any more opinions?

Please!?

You're absolutely in.

Unless you're a felon you should relax...you're going to get in, def.

I was accepted FT with a 162/3.05 last year. You're good.

According to this you have more than a 50% chance. I say youre definitely in. And this data is accurate. Might even get some money. Enjoy Hartford broski.

Also if any consolation I personally know someone there who applied in late jan/feb 2 years ago with a 3.3/161 and is a 2L now.

Accepted last year with a 3.8/161.

Although they take a while to render decisions, I think I got mine in early Feb.

I'm also wondering chances at Uconn...

160/3.29, CT Resident

I feel like it's a tossup.

If you look at the link I provided 3 posts up and scroll to bottom to applicant profile you can see you have a little less than 30% when just looking at numbers. Put together your best app and get it in. I'd say 50/50 at that point.

Applied in October... Uconn reviews applications late so I'm just waiting.

Thanks for all the responses! I hope you're all right!
