Extra Curricular Information

I would say moderately strong softs: Scholarships, fellowship, honors thesis, lots of extracurriculars and leadership on campus, Phi Beta Kappa and a few other honors societies.

3 Solid rec letters from professors that have all known me for 3 years.

Oct. LSAT: 164
Dec. LSAT: 165

Scholarship = 3 year total

Additional info & updates

4/30/11: My cycle has officially ended. I ended up with 6 acceptances, 9 wait lists, and 1 rejection. After considering my options, I will be attending Northwestern. Since I fully intend on pursuing a public interest career, their LRAP will make the debt level not as bad.

As you can see, my cycle didn't quite go as I predicted. I never thought I would get into Northwestern with minimal W/E and an LSAT 5 points below median. I was held and interviewed on campus during Spring Break and sent into two supplemental essays.

I think my cycle demonstrates the unpredictability of reverse splitters.
