Hey guys!Im a black female at a state university.I take my LSAT in October.I was wondering if I had any chance at all at a decent scholarship in the top 70 or so if I was able to get it around a 165 by October?Money is really important to me because I'm not wealthy and was raised by a single parent.

You absolutely have a good chance at getting good money at a top 70 school with a 165, but you'd probably be selling yourself short. You could get decent money at top 20 schools with that score. Check out http://mylsn.info/r/pre-law/admissions/search/ and look at your options with different scores. Right now, though, you need to buckle down and get a good score on your lsat, search through this website (top law schools) for good resources to help you study.

If you are able to score a 165 as a female URM, then you shouldn't be looking at anything outside the top 25! Study hard and you will get in to a lot of places with a lot of scholarship money. Good luck!

+1 on this one. Study hard, the financial rewards are real and out there for you.
