Yes, another one of these threads....
171/3.4
worked 40+ hours through undergrad while taking 18 credits a semester, no softs to speak of... I should have a 3.5 come the end of fall semester next year. Retaking in October, my PTs were in the 173-176 range. No interest in going west of the Mississippi.
My list so far is:
BC
BU
Gtown
WUSTL
Where else should I apply? I'd like to come back to Boston to work, but NY would be just as good.

Send out a ton of fee waivers and consider sending fee waiver requests to most T30 schools. Never hurts to ask and lots of schools give them out. The more apps you send out the better chance you have at getting a scholly you can use to leverage money out of other schools.

How do the fee waivers work? I have an LSAC fee waiver, does that mean some schools automatically give me a fee waiver as well? For the schools that don't do it automatically, do they just email you one to the email from your LSAC account?
