Stick with the green. Oh... and... we don't like your kind around here.

Unless there is something awesome you are not telling us, forget the red. GULC and Cornell might be possible, but without a high (American) GPA to make up for the low LSAT (low at least for these schools) even these are big reaches.

I'd think he'd have good shot at yellow.

With 166/3.65 he'd be able to get into the greens normally.
I mean I got scholly to UGA with 165./3.06/horrible softs. W/L at W&M.

Take a 3.65/166, throw in a phd (a soft factor that actually matters I'm guessing)
and I could easily see t10-20

If I were you, I'd go to uga.

What kind of $$ did UGA give you, if you don't mind me asking?
I currently live in FL so UF is a natural choice.
UGA could work, what is Athens like?
Is out-of-state #31 worth it over in-state #47?

If Eastern US is a factor, cut UC-Davis off the list (it really makes no sense in your situation) and reach for Cornell, or add Fordham to the list.

Phd doesn't matter. Maybe bottom three yellow.

So I am retaking one final time in October....
Mid 30's, PhD in chemistry are other factors.

bleu,
But you have a French name, no?
Now you've hurt my feelings, and the illusion has been shattered!

Only those schools on the list are under consideration.

Lol that's ad hominem maybe that's why you didn't do good on the LSAT

Only an ad hominem if you consider it an insult!

You probably won't get into any school that has a LSAT median higher than your LSAT.
