I have an undergrad in Econ with 2.9 (3.55 in-major) and a Masters in Managment Information Systems with a 3.1GPA. I worked full time through both degrees, and have a ton of solid corporate and government experience for my age (25). I'm looking at some Tier 3 law schools like WVU, Akron, Syracuse, etc. Pretty much all of the average GPAs and 25%ile GPAs are higher than mine. Kinda worried b/c this is what I really want to do.

Yes, my son-in-law is in his 2nd year of law school and it was much easier in getting admitted with his Master's Degree. Good luck to you! You can do it!!! Stick with it!!!!!

HAve you taken the LSATs? Your Master's is very helpful and looks good on your transcripts. Just get a study guide for the LSAT and then take the entrance exam. Talk with a counselor at the college and ask them, that is why they are there. Good Luck!

what do you mean tons of experience?
25 years???
The most that you can get a solid 4 years experience... which is nothing...
well seeing your GPA, I would be worried...
First screening - GPA...
You should at least have a 3.3 GPA
3.1 GPA for master course/degree is just like close to failing...

You'll get in to WVU. ;-) (I did my undergrad there, wish I could afford law school.)
