Sub 3.0 Gpa for T-14? And does undergrad school matter?

Please see my chances thread, http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... 9&t=225308

New here.
didn't know there were threads just for URMs here. Does undergrad prestige even matter for law school? Since I'm a stanford grad. Or would I get any boost applying to Stanford(I know my chances w/out are ridiculously slim to none) since I went there for undergrad

Based on the available data (LSN,TLS), it does seem like UG for URM applicants matters more than it does foor their non-URM counterparts for the T14. Hwoever, with a sub 3.0, I don't think your UG pedigree will help you much, if it all. Your best bet is to score a 170+ and hope a lower T14 will throw a ton of money at you.
