3.7 What are my options?

Post by Anonymous User » Wed Jun 07, 2017 9:13 pm

Hi all,

Just got final grades back. I have a 3.7x. I come from a TTT (90's ish rank).

What schools should I hit up in T14?

I already have looked at the 509's.

Was hoping for Berkeley, but a little discouraged right now.

You really need to include at least an approximate class rank for this to be at all answerable.

At some schools, 3.7 is top 10%, at some schools it's top third.

What this person said. The GPA is meaningless by itself. If your school curves to 2.7 and you got a 3.7, that's amazing. If your school curves to 3.55, then meh.

School curves to a 3.1. No rank for another week or two. Is that helpful or...

West coast, 1/4 scholarship, mid to big law or a clerkship would be ideal.

I am a bit older w/ a family (no kids) and open to moving if it makes sense. Ideally end up back on west coast (CA or WA).

Any ties to those regions?

Nevertheless, I still think CCN and down is the credited response. Maybe UCLA/USC if you really like the west coast.
