No, there are some 30+ on here and those in the teens aren't comfortable posting. I believe most of the scores....I'm sure several added a couple points. It does seem very odd to have such a high % over 30 because the folks I know that were over 30.....couldn't fathom most of them on here.

Well, throughout my whole life, my mom's always said that I have the combination of being really book-smart, but have no common sense, so that explains why I got a 30 and still am here.

Yes it is. But I've been known to make that type of dumb decision before ;)

NYU or OSU law next year

By next year do you mean next Fall? Did you get an admission deferral?

Sorry, should have made it clear. I take the LSAT this summer. I have a 3.93 GPA through my junior year

Ah, ok. So you're looking at joining in the fall of '12. I'd advise opening the options to more than just NYU and OSU. Without a schollie NYU is going to be mega expensive, not just the tuition but living in NYC, OSU might provide an attractive financial option - certainly someone in the middle will offer some aid. As FFT mentioned this is likely a topic for another thread, but do NOT go into a lot of debt for grad school, whether it is law or MBA. The employment opportunities are dwindling and the expenses are rising - it defies all economic sense. And if you make it to the top you can risk killing yourself in your career (literally) like the Skadden person in LA this past week.
