GPA

A 158 is an awesome score on the LSAT, but it looks like your GPA is going to be the tough obstacle to overcome. Do law schools have a minimum GPA for admission like other grad schools?

I'm pretty sure they don't have a strict minimum like grad schools. But then again, I've never even researched grad schools, so I don't know how 'strict' their strict minimums are. I'm pretty sure you could have basement level GPA and LSAT and law schools would still give your app fair consideration.

Good luck to you brother!

I am similarly situated with numbers. I have a slightly worse LSAT and a slightly better GPA. There is hope for us, I know it. If you got into Widener, I hope to HECK that Capital takes us, or Dayton, but really if it's me or you, Dayton is my number one and you already have Widener ;)

Good luck!

I keep checking on you since we are close on numbers. I hope I see you getting lots of acceptances soon!

thanks

thanks for the advice =) wishing you the best of luck with everything!

thanks

Thanks for the kind words. I got my first reply Sat, Feb. 23. Acceptance from Washburn!

Good Luck

Best of luck man, I really hope your LSAT scores get you in several schools.

congrats

on your acceptances so far, we have simillar numbers/ I am finding the low GPA can be forgiven, especially for non trads like us that have put some solid work exp in! Best of luck to you!

Congrats!! Have you decided where you are going? I know what you mean about not finding message boards for the 'others' like us. I would have liked to talk to some folks like me during the process...but I couldn't find any. :(

CAMI - I actually have no idea where I'm going yet. Everything is hinging on IU-Indy, Ohio Northern, and Dayton. Of course, if by some miracle Catholic lets me in, I'll drop everything. But I seriously doubt that - LOL

I got it!

I'm still holding out hope for Indy. I'll likely withdraw by the 9th if they give me no love. Good luck!

I just got the call from Indy! Put me in coach, i'm ready to play!

Accept?
Tuesday, July 24 2007 at 08:00 PM

Stop pressuring me!!! I'm just kidding. I haven't yet, they said they would send paperwork. I may accept though if UOP doesn't come through for me. Indiana is a great school. Do you live around there? What is rent like?

Congrats!

Look who finally got into Indy! Good job. You\'re welcome for my spot! Best of luck to you.
