I agree with don't lose hope. When you look at lawschoolnumbers for Duke this year vs. last year, last year there was a wall at 170 LSAT with some sporadic admission points with LSAT < 170. This year already there is a wall from 169-170, with some distributed points beneath. Which means people in the 167-169 range with high GPA are likely to have a better shot this year this year than last year.

169/3.84 and placed on the Priority Reserve list. I was thinking I had a pretty good shot at acceptance. Maybe I still do, who knows?
