Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
I am considering applying to an LLM program, and would like to know if anyone can shed some light on my chances at the following schools.
STATS:
Top 20 school - 3.4 GPA
Great Letters of Recc. from Proffs and Partner at firm I summered for.
Sort of compelling PS but nothing really special.
1. GULC
2. GW
3. BU
4. Cornell
5. Penn
6. NYU
7. Columbia
8. Duke
9. NW
10. Chicago
11. UVA
12. UMich
Thanks!

Hello --
Fellow domestic applicant here (from last year). It's tough to speak in generalities, especially as I suspect we are in a different world of admissions due to the economy. Your class rank will be important (not just GPA). A year or two of post-JD work experience would go a long way. Bottom line, based on my own experience, I think you'd probably get in to at least some of the schools you listed. I'm not sure exactly where I'd draw the line, though - a lot of factors at play.
Best of luck to you.
