Dear Chase Anderson,

Your June 12, 2006 LSAT score is 169. The percentile rank is 97.

This puts me well within range of most of the places I want to go. As always, Harvard is still a reach. UW Law, the region's top school, is almost a sure bet.

169 is AWESOME, congratulations!

your outside stuff will get you into harvard if that's where you really want to go -- community activism, volunteer work, recommendations from alumni, judges or prominent lawyers, etc. it's all about the special sauce with the ivies, so start workin' it!

you are now also qualified to apply to Pimp's Pimpin School for Pimps.. but keep in mind, we are highly selective, and you will be expected to supply your own practice ho's

AHHH!! THAT'S AWESOME. What's your UGPA?

I really want into Columbia so badly. If I continue to get straight As, I'll end up with a 3.82 - 3.88 GPA. I need to take the LSAT, but I'm going to kill myself studying first.

What preparation methods did you use?

Ack, I'm seriously inept at follow-through lately, and lj is no exception. Anyway, to answer your month-old question...

My gpa is sort of complicated -- I've done most of my work at Trinity (3.83) and a CC before that (3.86), but if the minimal college stuff I did when I was 16 (something like a 3.0 because of two 0.0's) is given much weight, it's going to suck. Hopefully not -- it's so far gone that I usually don't even remember it.

Columbia looks like a great school -- I hope you get in. What are you interested in and what makes that your #1? As for the LSAT prep, I shunned the zillion-dollar prep classes and bought two books, one on logic games and one of real tests (the main one I used).
