Thanks!

To add, 1st one to graduate undergrad and first to go to grad school (provided I get admitted) and I have a very strong upward grade trend.

STRONG consideration for Top 5, apply to Top 30 to guarantee full-ride scholarships. Ask for fee waivers and watch the acceptance roll-in.

I'm also the first one to graduate from college (4 year) & the first to go to grad school. How can I use that - either as an addendum or a diversity statement - to have a better chance at law school?

Thanks in advance for all advice!

Yeah... H might be a stretch. I think you're guaranteed a few T14s, though.
