Chance Me! 167 3.84 GPA AA Female - Rural Northern Idaho Forum

[ekwiatkowski208]

Please chance me for Columbia specifically and T14 in general. Wondering if I should ED @ Columbia?

167 LSAT and 3.84 GPA. AA female from rural Northern Idaho, adopted at birth. Work experience throughout college and internship for Girls Empowerment Non-Profit, Head Coach of middle school volleyball team, internships on Capitol Hill as well as Irish Parliament. Aiming for International Law. I have very strong LOR, PS and DS. I think my narrative is very strong throughout my application, but nervous about my LSAT score holding me back. Want to apply ASAP and not retake.

Chance me please! Thank you so much!!

The trouble is there's little data, so to score you for Columbia specifically is nigh on impossible. You probably (or should) already know that you have a great shot at a number of T-13 acceptances.

If, by international law, you mean you want a unicorn job at the United Nations, I'd recommend retaking to try and get more competitive for H and maybe Y. But who knows, one of those might bite on your existing numbers. Not that you can't get there from Columbia or elsewhere, but it'll be easier (though still difficult) from the likes of Harvard and if you're not already in their ballpark, it's not a great leap to get there.

If you mean you want a BigLaw job with an international bent, you can probably get there from any of the T-13. Apply broadly and look to see who throws money in your direction. If you're not seeing as much scholarship $$$$ as you would like, retake and try to get those extra points.

Would never ED unless you've taken the LSAT like 5 times and are at risk of striking out at T14 entirely. That's not you; you're in the running across the entire T10. Could get lucky and hit on Y if they love your statement.

Might retake if you think you can boost the score, but if you don't think that's in the cards, you should hit on multiple T6s with decent aid. Congrats.
