I am currently a 3L at a Tier-1 Top-25 law school (But barely top 25) with a GPA that puts me somewhere near top 7%.

However, I am a transfer, and my GPA was a tad lower at my previous Tier-2 school (I was top 15% there). That's because I was working full-time during the day doing tax-related work.

I also was a summer associate a large regional law firm where I completed a few tax-related projects.

At my current law school, I have taken a number of tax classes and received an A- in them all. The rest of my classes I have earned all A's with the exception of one.

Would this qualify me for Northwestern's Tax LLM? I know Northwestern loves work experience, but I want to start an LLM immediately next year (I can't find a damn job in this market).

What are my odds of admission? How does this even work? What do they look for in LLM admissions?
