Good luck on the LSAT, a 175 and up is sexy enough for most schools, but your UG GPA is going to account for I'd say about half the battle also. A 3.6 is probably around 25th percentile for above average to excellent law schools. 3.8 is more around 75% of the accepted if I remember correctly.

BTW, who doesn't mind three Euro chicks in an 8 here? I had to look 2 to 3 times to figure out there was a car there, lol. http://www.maxpower.gr/601

Sadly Baja messed up my undergraduate GPA a bit so it's around a 3.2. I know engineering GPAs are weighted a bit more, but I'm not sure what the adjustment factor is. My Masters GPA is even worse as I was badly burned out by then. I hope to keep away that part of the transcript if I can.

Well hopefully you score above a 175 to partially cover up your GPA, but the weight factor of it I'd only use as a subconscious idea as it may or may not be weighted as much dependent on the school. I would rely on your letters of recommendation as another buffer, but of course it would have to be excellent. Anyway, have fun applying! hah

the course includes everything except the written exam, i believe. the course also includes the riding test- so upon completion it's equivalent to passing the dmv test. i need to double check the price but i think it's around $250...

Ok, sounds like Norwalk is a lot closer than Pomona. So, Cerritos College it is... Unless everyone disagrees.

Here are our 2 weekend choices for May for classes that are still open... Looks like it takes 2 weekends to complete the course. Just keep in mind that the weekend of 5/23 - 5/25 is Memorial (3-day) weekend. Weather is too difficult to predict 1 month ahead of time, unfortunately. (Yes- it would totally suck if it rains.) Any preferences? (Personally, I'd prefer the May 16th course, so we get done before June.)

http://www.cerritoscommunityed.com/i...bCategoryID=19

OPTION 1:
Saturday, 8:00 AM - 2:00 PM; Sunday, 12:30 PM - 5:30 PM; 3 sessions starting May 16, 2009, ending May 23, 2009. <<Class cost $250 , Materials Fee $ 0.00 - Available Discounts>>
Instructor: Community Education Staff Location: Cerritos College, Norwalk - Community Education Room 1. <<Important: CLASSROOM: Saturday, May 16, 8AM-2PM. ...More>>

Basic Motorcycle Training Course
CLASSROOM: Saturday, May 16, 8AM-2PM. RANGES: Sunday, May 17, and Sat., May 23 (Memorial Wknd.), 12:30-5:30pm. Please print and read this CONFIRMATION at the end of your registration transaction. THINGS TO KNOW and BRING: To the first class either a valid driver license or an instruction permit, or have proof of successfully completing a driver education program. This course is mandatory for those under 21 years old wanting a motorcycle or scooter M1 CA driver’s license. For students under 18, a parent or guardian must sign a waiver at the first class. You must be on time for all sessions and successfully complete all portions to receive a California DMV DL389 certificate that waives the riding test at the DMV. The DMV certificate will be mailed to you within 10 working days after the end of the class. This demanding course requires that you have physical stamina, motor-coordination, mental alertness, and can ride & balance a bicycle. Although students of different ability levels participate in classes together, each student’s skill level is rated on the basis of state standards. Motorcycles and helmets are provided. On the range, you must wear long-sleeved shirt/jacket, long pants, over-the-ankle footwear (padded, hi-top basketball like shoes or boots) and full finger leather or leather-like gloves. Please show up rain or shine.

I'll be the weatherman for today. The forecast for tonight is going to be clear and chilly so all you ****'s better have a sweater. For the couples regardless of orientation, cuddling may be required... and yes, I'm referring to Allen and anyone who may be in contact with him as he may come up and abruptly touch you. lol
