Chicago is tied for number one for me (I'm still vacillating between it and NYU). Very excited to apply; has TLS reached a consensus on a Why Chicago?

I have reached a dictator-style consensus. I will go into "Why Chicago" in my PS more than I will for other schools, but no separate essay.

Ah, the best sort of consensus. That sounds like a pretty good idea.

Yup! Can't wait to fill it out tomorrow.

I wish other schools gave some indication as to when they would make their applications available. Only ~10 days until Sept 1.

+1, minus the whole "tied" thing. It's a one horse race for me. What is everyone's opinion on the score I'd need WRT RD vs. ED with a 3.53 gpa?

Unfortunately, it looks like no shot at Chicago with RD: http://chicago.lawschoolnumbers.com/app ... =1&type=jd

And there aren't many data points for ED, so I'm not really sure: http://chicago.lawschoolnumbers.com/app ... =3&type=jd

I was wondering how significant a .1 GPA difference would be, all things equal (say a 3.77 vs 3.87)?

Thanks

Well, I think it depends on multiple factors, including where the 0.1 GPA difference is, i.e., is it between a 3.9 and a 4.0? a 3.3 and a 3.4? Or as you said a 3.77 and a 3.87? Assuming the latter, a 3.77 is below their median, while a 3.87 is at their 75th percentile. So, in this case, I think it would make a large difference.

Of course, it also depends on what your LSAT score is.
