Sent in the app to GULC EA about a week ago, thought I would try to get this going.
For me:
School Tier: TTT
GPA: 4.00
Class Rank: 1
CALI(s): 1
Summer: Not sure yet
Also, Duke/Columbia/Dartmouth/Penn/UChicago/Brown undergrad (not sure if that matters)
Where else are you going to apply? Did you Chicago ED?
I’ve applied to Vandy, Georgetown, and GW so far, and am planning to do Chicago ED.
Good luck!
Y’all started early.
Last year’s thread: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=261707
Checking in. EA applicant.
School Tier: T1
GPA: 3.9
Good luck to us all.
Did you wind up at GULC, Encyclopedia? How was the transition in as a transfer?
I ended up at NYU after spending too much money on various transfer deposits. So far transferring has definitely been the right decision for me. Feel free to ask me questions here or PM.
School Tier: T1
GPA: 3.2
Class Rank: Top 30%
CALI(s): 1
Summer: Interning for Senate member in D.C.
Someone went to Brown for UG.
Aren’t you a 0L?
tis a joke.
Nothing wrong with Brown at all. It’s a fantastic school, but those are not the institutions that people would jump to place it as peers with.
Granted, the post was made a bit too hastily without close enough reading. The thread was bumped immediately after this whole GULC debacle, so I thought the above poster was putting down GULC (obviously wrong with the date the top post was made). Mistakes were made.
School Tier: TTT
GPA: 4.0
Class Rank: 1
CALI(s): my school doesn’t do these, but had the highest grade in two courses in the fall
Summer: waiting to hear back, hopefully a federal judicial externship
Checking in!
School Tier: Mid-TT
GPA: 3.70
Class Rank: Top 5-6%
CALI(s): 1
Summer: DOJ in DC
Strong softs and recs, for what it’s worth
You guys think the ratings bump will open some new spots? Or cause GULC to actually restrict the class size?
You should be good to go. I had almost identical stats but my school was TTTT, and I got in.
IDK why anyone would want to transfer to a non-t13 law school anymore
Because s/he wants to work in Biglaw and can’t get into one of the top 13 schools…
People on this thread are clearly putting in the work to put themselves in a position to advance their careers as far as they can. No need to dump on their successes with your sarcastic, douchey comments.
Submitted today. Good luck!
Don’t feed the trolls. This guy has 50+ posts in the past week trying to make “T13” happen. The rankings are based on 2015 figures. The class of 2016 at GULC crowd-sourced their firm placement and found that over 50% went to the biggest firms on the East Coast and CA. Doesn’t include Art III FC’s and those who opted out of Biglaw. The whole ranking adjustment is clearly political, and will likely revert based on recent figures. Maybe GULC will actually lower its class size now.
