I graduated at the top of a top law school in 2006 and, after four years of corporate law hell to repay the loans, intended to transition to the public sector. But I have always harbored some hope of ending up in academia so I took the GRE last weekend and did fine. I'd only go to a top PoliSci or MPP program, and only with funding--I'm leaving a $200k job behind. So, in what I am sure is an annoying repeat of many past threads, can I get some thoughts on my chances in applying this late?
GRE: 770V, 740Q, AW?
LSAT: 99th%
2006 JD top 5 school, top 10% class
2003 BA from good but not spectacular college, polisci major, magna
How high can I reasonably shoot?
Thanks for the time and best of luck to all!
