Application Recommendations -- Please Help!

Post by Common » Thu Aug 09, 2018 5:46 pm

Info:

29-years-old
Male
White

Undergrad GPA (Tier 1 school): 2.35 (Primarily attributed to familial issues)
Grad GPA (Tier 1 school): 3.75
LSAT: 177

Seven years of work experience in software engineering/information security demonstrating career progression, with the most recent 3 years in a leadership position.

I have a unique story — I was a persecuted, starving refugee coming from a war-torn country in the Balkans in the '90s, grew up in poverty, etc.

I also have three misdemeanor convictions at 18 and 19 years of age which are in the process of being sealed (not expunged).

What are your suggestions? My goal is a top 50. However, I'd like to transfer after 1L to a higher ranked school.
