You really shouldn't be doing ED anywhere, I guess except for HYS because you lose leverage for scholarships and don't give yourself other options for the app process. TCR is also going to be for you to retake given these stats: http://mylsn.info/ziasi7/.

Two point LSAT bump gives you this instead: http://mylsn.info/masodq/.

It's not detrimental, it just doesn't seem to do much. You need to get another point or two on the LSAT and you'll be a shoo-in RD. Below both medians you aren't likely to get in via RD or ED.

Huh? ED disqualifies you from scholarships?

Or is it because if you ED you are bound to attend that school anyway so you lose bargaining power, and schools don't care about giving you scholly to save money for themselves? All schools?

Don't ED. retake the LSAT for two more points and you're a strong candidate at nyu

NYU ED does not give an admissions boost so it's pointless.

Retake and shoot for a scholarship that covers one year of tuition so you can limit your debt

This. And pretty much all schools. I think NU is the one exception. And mainly bargaining power among your options. Like School X is offering me $$, I would like to attend your school but need $$ instead of $.

Thanks for the feedback. As for the LSAT,
I scored a bit below my PT average going in, but I work 60 hours/week, so a retake will be difficult. Assuming I stick with my current LSAT score, is the answer still no ED? Do you think I have a shot RD?

ED does not provide a boost in admissions for NYU
