3.1/170 - Where to ED? Forum

[JD4Me]

I am a 3 time LSAT taker (154-156 sep '09, 160-162 jun '09 and 170 jun '10) with 2 years of WE (a third before matriculating). In terms of ED'ing, I am leaning towards Northwestern as my top choice. I was wondering if I would be better served with using my ED on UVA or Michigan or somewhere like UCLA for my reaches? I would love to go to any of them but NW is my top choice. Thank you.

NU, UVA, and Mich are all good choices. NU is probably especially solid for you since you have 2 years of WE.

UCLA tends to strongly disfavor low GPAs compared to other schools. You have a better chance at any of the three above schools than at UCLA, IMO.

If NU is your top choice, then ED to NU. They'll love your 170 LSAT and 2 years of WE.

isn't Penn ED also a possibility?

Considered it but I like it as a choice a lot less than UVA, Mich and NW.
