I agree that your diversity statement sounds very unique. You have pretty strong numbers for most of the T-14 below CCN. I think NYU you have a shot with an ED and maybe even RD (I hope so at least, since I have a 3.61/173 
). Big splitter so early application would be very beneficial. Best of luck!

You might get CCN with an ED. Probably not otherwise. Money at some of MVP (I would guess M).

do you think I can get $$$ at USC? I'm an alumni btw

In a word, Yes. However, I don't think it is a sure thing since most west coast schools, including USC, put a greater emphasis on GPA than LSAT.dpk711 wrote:do you think I can get $$$ at USC? I'm an alumni btw

despite the weight on gpa and such, i think ur in a good position to get some serious $ at USC. i dont think CCN will happen, even w/ ED. ull prolly get in at least one of MVP, but an ED would prolly secure the one u want if thats the route u wanted to take.

How about Cornell? I already sent my app in (Early Action) I know I'm well above their median for LSATs but around the 25th percentile for GPA... what are my chances there and if I do get in do you think $$$ is possible?
An Ivy League legal education would be nice!!

I would be surprised to see you not get into Cornell with some money. That said, I'm no expert on Cornell, so maybe someone else can provide some more informed insight on this subject.

Pretty good. Probably won't get money. ED would make you close to a sure thing.dpk711 wrote:Then tears of sadnessplenipotentiary wrote:Sorry, I really meant the second C or N. Columbia is incredibly unlikely.dpk711 wrote:ED Columbia?? If I got in I might cry!!

wondering if I should apply Penn ED, thinking really hard... any opinions?
Re: 3.52/172
Posted: Wed Nov 03, 2010 5:22 pm
Without it, you run the risk of a Waitlist - but Penn is just very WL happy overall. If you would rather go to Penn than Chicago, and about the same as NYU, then I would suggest ED-ing. Otherwise, it comes down to your own personal preferences. You'll get at least one of MVP.dpk711 wrote:wondering if I should apply Penn ED, thinking really hard... any opinions?

You're probably 50/50 for each of Chicago, NYU, and Penn, so just ED to your favorite of the 3.

important for RD to show interest, not important for ED since you're committed to attenddpk711 wrote:For Penn do you think writing all 3 optional essays is important?im_blue wrote:Yeah 50/50 without ED, better than 50% with EDdpk711 wrote:50/50 without the ED??im_blue wrote:You're probably 50/50 for each of Chicago, NYU, and Penn, so just ED to your favorite of the 3.
