Extra Reaches

I am fairly comfortable with the number of schools I have already applied to, but am considering throwing out a couple applications to a few more reaches.

These are all schools that would not give me merit fee waivers, is it worth the money to send applications? What are my chances?

I am a 2.7/169 and will be a 2.8/169 once my updated transcripts get sent in.

George Washington
American
Fordham
Boston University

You will almost certainly get into American with these numbers although I'm not sure why you would go to any of these except for GW if you wanted to do IP.

Thanks for you reply. I am looking at the schools because of their locations and strong regional reps. Anyone else have an idea on these? Fordham and BU especially.

I check these things a few times a week, no stranger to percents given by LSP and LSAC. However, the reality is it is hard to find candidates on LSN with numbers similar to mine. Hoping someone might know a little more about these schools in terms of splitter friendliness.
