Is that your UG GPA or your LSDAS GPA?

Hmm even HY? I thought Stanford was enough of a reach, but Yale just sent an email inviting me to an on campus visit/event at my UG (an Ivy) -- said they got my info from CRS (...which I'm assuming would include my LSAT?). Do you think this is a blanket thing or should I take this as an exceedingly hopeful indication that Yale is actually interested in me and I should consider shelling out the $$ for an app?

If I'm being delusional, please smack some sense into me.

Yale does not have to blanket. They are interested.

Yes all of HYS is worth it. It's not a lock or even a good shot but it is definitely worth it considering you have a shot.
