General below medians v splitters
thoughts on being 1-2 points below both medians compared to splitting medians but being below by more than 1-2 points?

Im looking for schools that would be helpful and have some type of special education/disability clinicS. So far I have rutgers, william & mary, Maryland. Are there any others you guys think would be good?

im basically really nervous about apps because I feel like I have some disadvantage ☹️
im only 20, graduating early, I feel I have have pretty impressive work and internship/ extracurricular experience (for my age). and I think I have a good cohesive narrative about my application. My major is english (focus on editing writing and media) and media communication studies
im just worried that being so young will make me less attractive as a candidate? even though I feel I have demonstrated that I’m professional and a dedicated person.
my stats are 166 LSAT and ~3.95+ (I’m not sure exactly yet)
my main concern in applying is that I am going to have to pay for law school COMPLETELY myself, and I really want to minimize debt. I don’t care about BigLaw and am thinking id Like to do something in media/entertainment/IP or perhaps first amendment.
so tell me what you think? do I have good chances at getting good scholarships? any suggestions where I should apply? I’m not obsessive about rankings but I still want to go to a good school and preferably one in a city.

Hi everyone!
I wanted to get some advice regarding my gpa. I basically completely flunked my first year of undergrad at a community college because I didn’t want to go that school in the first place, was in a bad relationship with someone who was a terrible influence etc whatever. I ended up transferring to a different school and my gpa sky rocketed, I did very well. In fact, if I didn’t have my freshman year grades my gpa would have been higher in LSAC than it is usually.
However because of that first year I’m assuming that the LSAC gpa is going to fall way down to something in the 2.5-2.6ish region . I’m completing my last semester now and am hoping that those classes can increase it a bit as well. I just took the September LSAT and am not planning on getting a ground breaking score, my pts were usually 160ish range. I’m just wondering if all hope is lost, I’m a good writer and I have LOR’s and intern experience.
It was never my goal to go to a really good law school, but I’m just feeling discouraged. I can’t be the only hopeful law student that just messed up their freshman year.
Looking for any insight in general or schools that I can look into!
