While you should be genuinely proud of the scholarship offers, please bear in mind that W&L is not a feeder school for any employment market -- not to mention the lack of externship offers during the school year and inability to network in the geography where you want to work upon graduation.

Retake is first choice. Second is W&M but you should spend your 3rd year as a visiting student at a school in the market where you want to work.

Looks like you were late to the negotiation. There's no way W&M will bother looking at a petty W&L offer, and I doubt they'd see it anyway trying to look around their giant USNWR boner.

Your analysis of W&M should remain the same as it was yesterday. A quick peek at LST numbers for W&L would have revealed what you found out today - they ain't all they're cracked up to be. Admittedly, I had no *idea* either.

Anyway, nothing has really changed and USNWR doesn't really matter...I honestly just wanted to use the word "boner" and it seemed to fit pretty organically into this thread considering today's news...

Does Georgetown place better into DC than GW?

If so you may want to retake and try to get a few more points on the LSAT.

Youre best option is to retake the LSAT. Especially since you want DC.

GWs LST score is inflated cause like 20% of the class is employed by the school. 9 months after graduation. GW is definitely not worth anywhere close to 200k+

I mean if they're that good maybe I should consider them more highly?
