Alright.. based on value/career prospects what do you guys think? I realize that a number of them are regional schools but taking that into account who is strongest within their region etc. and what is your reasoning behind the choice.

Accepted / Total scholarship amount:

Northeastern - 30K
Tulane - Sticker
Cincinnati - 22K + GMR rate (equates to roughly 65k off)
McGeorge - 60K
LSU - 31K
NYLS - 40K + (possible other scholarship)
Seton Hall - Sticker

well that's dependent on where there is the most opportunity (of the choices listed). I have no real ties to any specific area

as for the "retake" suggestion - thanks, anyone with real input is more than welcome to post.

If you think you can bump up your score significantly and have a decent job/life to live for a year, I'd consider retake. With that said though, I'd narrow this down to Northeastern or Cincinnati, and try to negotiate for more $$ at both somehow. Both are decent schools and I know Cincinnati will give you in-state for 1L.

What are your feelings on LSU / Tulane?

I have heard that Tulane has somewhat of a national reach.

LSU is obviously strong within the south
