What are my chances?
Hi, I have 3.65 from UChicago in Econ and 170 on LSAT. What could I shoot for? Thanks in advance.

Out at HYSCCN and Berkeley (and Northwestern if no work experience), good shot at the rest of the T14

Re: What are my chances?
Hmmm...I really want to go to Chicago. How definite of an out would that be? I have a very strong upward trend in grades, and I can get awesome academic recs. My other option is to just go to the UNC for cheap, but Chicago was one school I was willing to pay the extra money (well, NYU too, but I figured it was well out of my reach). Thanks a lot.

Re: What are my chances?
Chicago and NYU are both out of reach because you're just below both LSAT and GPA medians of 3.76/171 and 3.72/171, respectively. So unless you're a URM, those schools are definite outs with greater than 99% certainty. Berkeley loves high GPAs and Northwestern practically requires work experience. The rest of the T14 has LSAT medians of 167-170, so you have good to excellent chances at any of them.
