Can a 2.8 GPA and a 155 lsat get you into law school?

Yes it can get you into many schools. Could possible get into schools 75-100. Depends on your "soft" features of application.

Depends on undergraduate institution as well.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
