Sorry. But I think you are aiming too high. However, if that is your dream, then you must as well ED!

Target T15 - T35.

there's really nothing to lose here

I do not think you are aiming too high. PM sent

Quick note: searched LSN for URMs who applied to UVA with 158 - 162 LSAT and 3.5 - 3.7 GPA. None of them were accepted into UVA (some were WL and I am unsure if they used the ED or not).

However, there were some Duke, Georgetown, and UPenn acceptances in there. So, even though I still believe your best chances lie in the 15 - 35 range, it wouldn't hurt to try and get lucky with a T10 acceptance!

does law school numbers.com list everyone who was accepted or just people who have visited that site?

Just people who created accounts on the site. So it is totally self reported.

I don't think so. I know of another poster on these message boards, African-American, 160 3.0 and ED'd to Virginia and was accepted.

Might be worth it, if you don't think there is a school about it you have a decent chance at if you ED there instead.

If that's where you want to go, yes. I can tell you for certain that it's entirely feasible for you to be accepted ED to UVA with those numbers.
