Top Law Schools

I really liked Vandy over asw, and I've got the $80k over 3 yrs scholarship (25, 25, 25, and 5 for summer or 2nd yr tuition). I haven't visited UVA yet. I'm going to, but also I haven't gotten merit aid from them. I know I'd be happy at Vanderbilt, and I love the community and southern feel, but I'm marginally afraid I'll feel like I'm "settling" or something if I don't go to UVA.
I also desperately want to practice in the northeast.
Also strongly considering Duke, Gtown, and Cornell. Nothing I can do about it now but I carpet bombed applications. Oops.

What are your career goals?

What is total CoA including interest on the loans.

This.

You want to "desperately" practice in the NE (I'm assuming this means mid-atlantic), which makes Vandy a bad choice. Although they can certainly place candidates into NYC, you'd have to be pretty high up in your class.

And I would not consider sticker at UVA, Duke, Cornell, or especially Georgetown.

What are your numbers? Can you retake?
