I have a cumulative GPA of 3.45 and 4.0 in major from San Diego State University, 3.85 cumulative GPA from NYU’s paralegal diploma program and two years work experience as a legal assistant at one of the largest corporate law firms in the country. I’m hoping to get a 600-675 on the GMAT and write pretty good essays. Also, my reccomendations will be good and from attorneys at my firm. Applications are available October 1st and I plan to submit mine a couple weeks after that, so I’ll be getting my app. in way before the 1st round deadline. This is for an early deadline for persons who have USC as their 1st choice. What kind of realistic chance do I have of getting in?
