My guess is that you'll get in wherever you apply. And I'm being serious; I'm not just repeating the xoxo meme. That's assuming you are legit Hispanic; not one of those white kids who had a Mexican grandmother or some third-generation child of some Argentinean dictator. But there are probably no more than a couple dozen URM's nationwide with that LSAT score, much less solid work experience on top of that. Y is iffy, but you should get in everywhere else. There were plenty of URM's at my HYS with far worse numbers than that.

Tough call. You might have to go in for an on-campus interview to assess if your Burrito farts are of a scholarly Sotomayorish caliber.

Well, try to write a good diversity statement where you explain how important your Mexican heritage is to you. Bonus points if you can tell a sob story about your grandparents working in the fields or something like that. I have been told that admissions officers are suspicious of people who just check the proverbial box if they grew up in a predominantly white area and don't have anything on their resume to suggest that they are part of the URM population in question. So try to BS your diversity statement the best you can. If you can sell yourself as a bona fide URM, you're golden.

URM w/ 173 gets in everywhere pretty much.

For what its worth, I knew a guy exactly like you in LS. Preppy, a huge asshole, and white as shit, both in complexion and demeanor. His "Mexican" father was a fucking professor. He copped a full ride.

Just remember, every non-urm around you will be objectively smarter and more qualified.

He copped a 170, he'll probably be about as smart as most of his classmates.

Schools seem to be focusing on GPA more than LSAT, but even a regular white guy with a 3.0/173 would get NU, GULC, and maybe another T14.

If you look at school charts on lawschoolnumbers, top schools didn't all decide to start admitting more low GPA splitters. IIRC, Northwestern and Georgetown admited any GPA if the LSAT score was 170+, but a lot of other schools stayed strong on GPA.

Just looked at UChicago on LSN, and they didn't admit any non-URM profile below a 3.6 except one guy with a 3.3 whose profile says he's ex-military who did a tour in afghanistan, ex-D3 football. http://chicago.lawschoolnumbers.com/stats/1314

And fwiw, 170+ LSATs actually increased 7% last cycle, while every other level of score below decreased

edit: looks like NYU was quite splitter-friendly

at this point, law schools will take a hispanic as long as he isn't in an iron lung or risks dying before the last student loan check clears in the sixth semester
