Would I be considered a URM? My grandparents are both fully native, but I am only a quarter native. I also don't have a tribal card. Despite this, I do have some unique experiences related to being native that I discuss in my diversity statement, for example, staying at the Indian reservation for special events and family visits as well as witnessing racial discrimination against family members.
I have a 164 on the LSAT, I'm a URM (Native American), I have a 3.88 GPA, and I have very strong softs. What do you think my chances are at Minnesota or Notre Dame?
Hi! Just a shower thought I had but, do some URMs get a higher boost in admission chances than other URMs? For example, would a Native American get a higher boost than someone who's Hispanic, or are all URM groups given the same boost?

I keep having this issue where my energy and focus plummet after around the 2nd section of a practice test. How can I keep energized and focused while taking PTs?
Do admissions officers consider a political science major as easy/not rigorous
Cornell is currently my first choice and I am planning on applying early decision. My LSAT is at their median score, but my GPA is lower than Cornell's median (I have a 3.81). Will it be easier for an applicant like me to get accepted now that its ratings have dropped? What should I do to improve my chances?

I am currently studying for the September LSAT. My diagnostic is a 153. Currently my practice tests have ranged anywhere from 156 to a 171! Is it normal for scores to fluctuate this much? How can I start consistently scoring in the high 160s? Has anyone else experienced this and what did you do to fix it?
I had this same issue. When you take PTs, do you simulate testing conditions? If not, that could be the issue.
