Hey, i have a bachelors degree in science and i was wondering if that increases my chances with acceptance since my degree is fairly hard. my gpa is a 3.4 and i havent taken my LSAT yet.

jb2028

20:37

Compared to a 3.6? No. Compared to a 3.4 in something else? Yes. Enough for admission? Depends on the school and your LSAT

jb2028

20:38

Get your LSAT above median and you'll have a fighting chance at places where your GPA is within the norm (near/over the 25th percentile)

im considering making and posting a google doc for splitters/super splitters because it seems like a lot of them have the same questions

Ijustwannagetinman

Is this the biggest usc wave we’ve seen this cycle?

Ijustwannagetinman

20:57

@GlibSedateCrow: I have a low 170s LSAT and a 3.5 and did decent this cycle you have hope!

jb2028

I think USC did an even bigger wave mid-March (50ish R/WL results, versus 27 so far today)

jb2028

21:01

Everyone's hitting the tail end of the cycle. Props to USC for at least getting decisions out to people, unlike certain other schools

21:05

I guess I'd cut Columbia the tiniest bit of slack given the university seems to be coming apart at the seams around them, but they, NYU, and Stanford need to get on with it

Ijustwannagetinman

21:06

NYU also have chaos today, police just made mass arrests

Would it be crazy to go to Iowa when I got into BC?

manifestT14acceptances

21:32

not necessarily, depending on $, if you like living in Iowa, what your post-grad goals are, etc

manifestT14acceptances

21:32

congrats btw :^)

I like the feng shui of the Iowa campus better. I need the gym and dining hall (I simply don't plan on cooking for myself) to all be in the same general location, and they just aren't on the BC campus

babybunny

i never see anyone talking about the feng shui of campuses on here and it’s so important

babybunny

thank you

@GIBiller: if you want big law in Boston yes it would be crazy, if you want mid law in the Midwest it would not be crazy

Hi. When would y’all expect waitlist movement for a school like University of Houston Law Center?

@manifestT14acceptances: How did your cycle go/is goig?

MightyUnableSphinx

Always curious for super splitters

@GIBiller: as a military person myself, I can respect the aesthetics of a good gym or mess hall but tbh, I would try and go to BC and find something else out about myself. I would try and see things in another way to be more rounded. At the end of the day a gym is a gym and you can always get memberships for different ones. Cafeteria food is cafeteria food but Boston has some great restaurants to maybe try.

never seen a terrence malick movie but his newer stuff i think i probably would hate

CanWeTalkAboutTerrenceMalick

Yeah, I really don't deserve to refer to him in my username. I've only seen Tree of Life, none of his widely lauded films, like Thin Red Line or Badlands. Hoping to watch those movies before 1L, though. I know he's very polarizing...

Please, Lakers. Please. You can do this.
