Hi,

I'm a 3L at a T20 school... a little above the median, but my school doesn't rank. I have two tax courses - A- and B+ so far. I'm taking a third now.

What are my chances at NYU? Georgetown? Florida? Northwestern?

bump - sorry, I just have no idea

Anyone?

You should apply and tell us what happens. There's really no way for us to know what your chances are.

Hard to say. It depends on work experience, and your application letter does matter. I would say probably no at NYU, maybe at GT, and likely at FL and NW. You would have had a better chance applying early action.

Everyone is different

I know people with Top 20% grades that have been accepted to GT, UF, and NYU already. Then again, I know some that are being wait-listed or whatever they call it to mean they are pushing them back decision wise. My guess is because the initial Top 20% people have taken MORE tax classes and/or have some background tax experience

I have been accepted to Boston and am waiting on Northwestern, Georgetown, and Florida

Unlike others here, my grades are going to hurt me big time. I am top 40% in my class (big one though) but I have taken 6 tax classes already and done well in them all, I have worked two tax jobs already, and I am currently employed at the IRS.

So, I am hoping my experience can over-come my grades but I doubt it will

Sigh, I didn't even bother with NYU
