Which College/University?
Favorite Answer
But, if you have to go there for some reason, the good news is that your GPA and LSAT (like the SAT, but it gets you into law school) can be much lower than what would be required at a better school.
You would be fine going to a community college or a state school no matter what law school you wanted to go to (including Yale and Harvard), the key is to keep your grades as high as possible and do as well as possible on the LSAT. Any university is fine and will get you where you want to go, but since you’re determined to go to Suffolk I would advise you to go to the cheapest school you can get into–Suffolk’s median salary for graduates is $62,000 for those in private practice/industry, and $42,000 for those in public interest work. They don’t even report how many people have jobs at graduation (which is a horrible, horrible sign.)
That said there are other colleges that are in MA that require less intelligence (but are still very good)….
– Boston College
– Boston University
– UMASS
These are all great colleges, they are labeled in order of hardest to get into (hardest on top).
