I have a BA and took a gap year to work and figure things out, which probably made things worse from a personal standpoint.

@ said:

Sorry about this. If you don't mind, could you disclose your stats and what schools rejected you? I feel like there might be a lesson here for me. If not, that's okay. Thanks

I had a 3.1 GPA and 145 LSAT. Low GPA came because of a lot of extracurriculars, and low LSAT came from a lot of personal hardship over the last 3 years.

I applied to about ten 147-193 ranked schools and received five rejections and one waitlist from the schools I was intent on attending. Still waiting on other decisions obviously, but am not counting on good news (which is fine).

Among my rejections: New England Boston (Waitlist), Stetson, St. Thomas Miami, Loyola NOLA, NSU, Univ. of Memphis.

Obviously have also received rejections from all reach and super reach schools that have provided decisions thus far.

So I got rejected from... all my target schools.

I still am waiting on decisions from other schools, but nearly all of my target schools have rejected me with one waitlist. I've also been rejected from two safety schools. While I expected mostly rejections mostly because of how late I applied, I wasn't expecting purely rejections.

I work at a firm now and am content staying here for the short-term, but I would prefer not to be here another year waiting to reapply. I would also rather bolster my GPA and LSAT than my experience, as my experience is good but my GPA and scores are definitely what are severely lacking on my transcript.

So... what now?
