Got 3.8. Practice LSAT tests have put me in about the 170ish range.
Top choices
-Columbia
-NYU
-Berkeley
(I'm a little reluctant to apply for HYS)
Next choices
-Chicago
-Mich
-Cornell
-UVA
-UNC-Chapel Hill (so ridiculously cheap for in-state students)
Thanks!

Re: 3.8 - 170
I have an identical GPA, usually score a 171 on practice tests, and also had some decent EC's throughout undergrad. Since I'm in relatively the same position, I've thought about this a lot, I really think it all depends on exactly what you score on the LSAT. For example, <170 will probably keep you out of CCN, but 172+ and you'd be in great shape. I'd just wait until you have an actual LSAT score and people will be able to give you a much better idea of your admissions prospects.

Wrote for student newspaper, had jobs all through college, and worked a couple of unpaid internships. Practice LSAT tests have put me in about the 170ish range.
