In this work the authors apply the self-consistency method for determining critical exponents to a model with a four fermi interaction coupled to QED and compute various gauge independent exponents in arbitrary dimensions in the large N expansion at 0(l/N). The formalism is developed to include a Chern Simons term in three dimensions and the effect such a term has on the exponents is deduced. 24 refs., 5 figs.
