Re: Retake with 173/3.94 for HYS and $$?

you'll almost certainly get into Harvard and Columbia, and you have a sizeable chance even at Stanford and a better than many chance at Yale. You have an outside shot at the Ruby, Hamilton, Levy, etc., but otherwise like many the predictable big money will be at Michigan down if you avoid YP.

One point higher and you'll have only slightly better odds of getting into schools, but the Hamilton and Vanderbilt will really come into range

Sooo shameless bump. I think chargers pretty much hit it on the head, but curious as to what others think.
It's a surprisingly low chance at a full scholly at CCN with those stats from my research. It goes up exponentially with a 174. Like a crazy amount. Odds at getting into places, #8 and down fulls, acceptances, etc. stay relatively flat

The Hamilton is the only outcome with a 174 threshold. Rubies and Vandies (and other t14 named fulls) go to 173s quite frequently.

Genuinely curious as to where you found this data. I had a hard time finding anything on here or google.
Look around on LSN and sort by $$ amount (or gpa/LSAT). Can all be copied into excel sheets easily if you want to analyze it further. Could be wrong but from a cursory glance it doesn't look like your odds at Rubies go up dramatically at 174 with that GPA.

Eta: Rubies from last cycle - 173, 3.9+: 3/9. 174, 3.9+: 4/10; 176+, 3.9+: 4/10. So it looks like your odds increase a bit but not much.

Yeah, that was my gut feeling too. I realistically won't be able to put in the appropriate effort for a September retake due to upcoming work obligations, so I'm thinking I may just have to ride it out and let the chips fall where they may.
You're good, fellow TLSer. You'll have killer options either way, and you aren't completely shut out from any possibility. Hell, you might even catch a Yale-Mary

Thanks, much appreciated
As plato's twin I appreciate it as well :) I wonder if there is any material difference between 3.9x and my almighty 4.0 (yay grade inflation!!!)
