If you can sustain top 5%, then I recommend applying anywhere between 10-20 in the rankings. I know Georgetown has taken T3 students with similar stats.

Is there a certain region or city you'd like to work in?

Impressive snagging a Federal COA internship at a TTT.

I can't imagine you would have trouble getting into WUSTL with those credentials...i think GULC is definitely on the table if you can maintain your performance there

Wherever. Location doesn't matter to me. I've done urban/rural and warm/cold climates. A T1 with access to a good market (or several small markets) would be nice.

Don't sell yourself short. If you desire a top-10 school, apply to a couple. I don't see you getting into HYS CCN but any other school might be within reach if your LOR's are strong. Try to become #1 and see what happens. You are already in the top 10-20 students, right? How large is your class?

If you're #1 or #2 with very strong LOR's, you could probably go almost anywhere. I think top-10's will be interested. The 1L curricula are 80% the same across all ABA-accredited law schools; so any school should be glad to take #1 or #2 from ANY other school.

Any ABA-accredited law school will provide a good legal education; it's the job prospects that suck for most of them.
