U of M, That sucks. I hope you get in, I'm in a similar boat as you.

LSAT importance

Looking at the graph for Minn., they definitely seem to put more weight on the LSAT than GPA. With my low GPA I figured it was a reach school so I'm glad I still have a chance. Good luck to you! It would be a great school to attend.

Hello! I too am a non-traditional student with low GPA (ex-military too, though National Guard), so was attracted to your account. Would you mind letting me know what the online status checker process/timeline was like for McKinney? I'm anxiously awaiting a decision there.
