Right now i'm an undergrad at the university of maryland, and have only had 30 credits, because i went to a community college my first 2 years.

Hey,

I've posted a reply about this to anyother member, but I'll give you my insight about it.

If you are able to get straight A's and manage to have a 3.2 cumulative GPA, you will need about a 170 on your LSATs. During the past year, two of my closest friends who graduated college with both 3.5 GPAs and 145 and 146 LSATs were rejected by every single Law School in which they applied. Both are excellent students but were not accepted to any schools, tier 4 included. One also had a letter of recommendation from a member on the selection committee.

I'm sorry to say but, your chances of getting into Law School is very, very slim with your grades and community college doesn't help either. I would consider other career opportunities so you don't put all your eggs and hope in one basket.
