Are you still very debt averse?
Then I think the correct answer is still get WE and reapply. You are a candidate for full scholarships, or nearly, at many schools in the T14. You could be leaving over 75k on the table if you took the current Duke offer. Just my 2 cents, but we have the same LSAT, and my GPA was a full .2 lower than you, and I got more than 90k at Duke. You need some leverage, and that means reapplying.

What are people's feelings on this. If anything I would have thought the numbers would continue to decline, just at a slower rate.Catherinelo365 wrote: But I heard more people are applying to law schools this year and with really really good numbers. And also the North America June test was really hard (what if LSAT is getting harder).
Will the next cycle be super competitive?

http://fortune.com/2014/06/09/northwest ... -to-waste/Last year, there was such a substantial national decline, and a lot of law school deans said, “It’s got to be the bottom of the market, right?” People assume there has to be an uptick, because there’ll be a recovery and students will see an opportunity to get into better schools. But then a year goes by and there’s an additional decline. I will say this: The preliminary data I’ve seen on the students who have taken the LSAT this year suggests that we’re not seeing a big recovery—let’s put it that way.
