Tell us what's important to you
how cooked is a 3.65 and 174 from an ivy for t14

you are fine....

Assuming decent softs/essays/recs, a 3.65/174 will get you into whichever T14s (maybe even T6s) need to defend their LSAT median
19:47
Most schools can't fill their class with people above both medians (by definition) and high LSATs are scarcer so they get you more leeway
you get more gpa leeway the better ranked your school is too
Do I got a decent shot at a school like fordham with a 164 3.95? I see the predictor gives a high percentage but was told not to trust those numbers

i plugged those numbers into LSData and about 4 out of 43 applicants with those stats reported being accepted. however this data is all self-reported and not exhaustive of the entire applicant pool. it looks like most LSData users with those stats reported being waitlisted, and people who are admitted from a waitlist often don't report it
I see I was doing it wrong
What percentage of applicants actually do report to LSD?

it looks like this past cycle about 1300 people reported applying to fordham on LSD out of the ~6300 applications total that fordham received
you should really try to get your lsat score up if you’ve got a 3.95 gpa. you spent 4 years doing very well in school you should get an lsat to match that

Hi everybody, I am applying to schools this August. I could use some brief help with optics for my personal statement, as I am a first-gen student in every regard--even at the high school graduate level.

Hey Everyone, I am also applying this cycle and have a question about my personal statement. I want to become a lawyer because of a personal trauma I experienced in the past. Is this too sensitive of a topic to mention in a PS? I won't go into detail and only mention it as it relates to my inspiration to be a lawyer.
