I need some quick advice. I'm a Canadian student in an undergrad business program ( one of the top 3 in the country). My GPA sucks (3.11) but it is because I've been working full time to run a small business while attending school. I scored 171 on the LSAT (99th percentile). I'm sure my recommendations will be great, and my GPA from 1st semester of the coming year should be 4.0 (not working this semester). Any thoughts on my chances at a top 14 school?
Thanks alot!

You definitely won't have a problem getting into a top 15 school, and you'll be very competitive for some of the top 10. I'm a Canadian (undergrad @ Queen's), now at NYU Law. But think seriously about going South - UofT is outstanding - I'd say it's in the same league as NYU, Columbia, Chicago, Boalt, etc... You take on a lot less debt, and many NYC firms hire UofT, Osgoode and McGill grads directly. Any other questions about studying stateside?
