Need a final list of schools!

Post by bernadette1 » Wed Nov 10, 2010 1:03 pm

So i'm basically almost done with my apps (have all the CRS stuff done) and now i just need to finalize a list of schools. cost isn't an issue because i have fee waivers for most school from LSAC. So I want to know which school i should apply to (safety/reaches and all that)

my stats are
GPA-3.52
Lsat-160/163

Soft-URM, Ivy League grad (in 2010), 2 years academic honors, ridic amounts of extracurriculars, rec from partner at firm i work at

Based on what the lsp calc. said i was thinking of some places like

Notre Dame, GW, UC Davis, BC, BU, UNC, USC, Northwestern, American. but i want to know where i could realistically apply and have a shot.

Being a URM I'd add a few more reaches to the list, I.E. everywhere from Northwestern down in the rankings (excluding places you wouldn't want to go). Otherwise it looks like you have a reasonable list, though URMs are very hard to accurately predict.
