URM, two MA's in Middle eastern studies, one from an ivy league. GPA of 3.9 across schools, with phd level classes. 3 great recommendations, one associate professor from each school, one who doubles as a department head at the ivy league. Great story: kicked out for being queer, returned to school as a mature student, excelled and and looking to work in public interest law. Great personal statements working on them since summer 2025, had writing assessors review and edit. 2 concurrent university designated certificates, in history and regional studies specialization, 4 languages, 1 human rights certificate from CITI. Professional experience is lacking, primarily in hospitality management. Volunteer experience is good, youth mentor and student councils across schools and pre-academia. Working on publishing and getting internships in law firms before classes start.

Yale has accepted people with low LSAT scores. I believe the lowest score they accepted last cycle was a 155. NOT impossible, just if you're able to get it up you should. Good luck!
Up that LSAT score. No chance with anything under 170. Let's Lock in!
if u are capable of all of that, i know well that you are capable of a 170 plus, keep studying. your potential is far greater than a 152
tbh i think it's too low
