Search different LSATs there, although you should be looking at what score gets you a full ride at these schools

My guess is the 166+ range to have a decent shot. Probably slightly higher for UCLA/USC; a little lower for UCI.

My best friend got into UCI with a 3.3/165, and that was a couple years ago. You should get a solid scholarship at UCI with a score in the mid 160's.

For UCLA and USC, a score 166+ will give you a coin flip chance, if I had to guess.

the biggest difference maker will be whether or not you hit their medians.

hey! thank you!, so with a 3.5, 165 will be put me in a good spot for UCI right? and would you say 163 should be the bare minimum that i should get? And once again, thankyou!
Have you played around on lawschoolpredictor.com? They have you at "consider" for UCI with a 3.5/163, with 42% of the admitted class of 2015 with numbers at or below those numbers. There is a chance that medians fell again last year, so your chances might be even better.

I figured you might need higher than a 163, but it looks like you would have a chance. Do you have an lsat score now?

As Nova said, hitting their medians is important. However, if I had to guess, due to declining law school applications, those schools will have lower medians than the ones that are currently listed on their websites.

I could be wrong, but I'm guessing the median LSAT for UCLA for this cycle will be around a 167, and for USC 166/165.
