165, 3.35, Softs...Chances and $?

Post by Sean Bateman » Tue Jan 05, 2010 4:11 pm

Why not? I've always been curious where the TLS community would rate my chances. Obviously we never know for sure but I'd love some input from you guys as to whether or not you think i will be accepted/ receive scholarship offers. are my sights too high? too low? thanks

LSDAS GPA: 3.35 (4.0 for the last two years)
LSAT: 154/165
Softs: Founded a large student organization, a campaign manager for SGA campaign.
Unfortunately I also have a possession of marijuana charge and was charged by the school with Disruptive Conduct/Alcoholic Beverages Violation for a party at my house. so heres the schools....

Reach
Boston College
Minnesota
UNC-Chapel Hill
William and Mary

Target
Univ. Of Florida
Florida State
Indiana- Bloomington
Kentucky
Northeastern
Tennessee
Tulane
Wake Forest

Safety
Drexel
LSU
Louisville
Ole Miss

*-A word about "safetys". I like these schools a lot. They are only under the "safety" category because I am almost certain I will be in

update: after factoring in last semesters grades, I am now a 3.39/165
As a sophmore who took a diagnostic LSAT cold with a 155 and a 2.9 at the time, I feel as i've come a long way and a lot of doors are opening that I never expected to see before.
