4.04 GPA. LSAT score needed?

Post by dts150 » Mon Nov 27, 2017 10:18 pm

I am prepping for the LSAT currently and have a few questions on what LSAT score I should target for various schools given my profile. I graduated a year early from a top 10 public in the top 3 percent of my class. By the time I would attend law school, I will have 2 years WE in a commercial role for a large company (f500/large private). I have had held roles as a writer for my college newspaper, research assistant (co-authorship), and two internships while in UG. I have other softs, but I will avoid the specifics as they are not as important. What LSAT score would I need to secure a reasonable shot at admission to HYS, CCN, and the rest of the T-14? Thank you for your help. I am just trying to gauge on where my sights should realistically be set.

Shoot for 180, study like you want a 180, and see what you get. There aren't strict LSAT score gates for given tiers of schools per se. 173+ will help for HYS, but that will also net awesome scholarships below that. 170+ may get HYS, will get CCN, and will get some awesome scholarships below that. etc. etc.

Play with http://mylsn.info if you're curious how the LSAT will affect you. It's not perfect, but it's the best we have.
