GPA: 3.8, chemical engineering, state college, would have been 3.95 except I had to drop a class after the drop date which goes on my transcript as a W but counts for LSDAS as a 0 correct? Anyway, I'm going to write an addendum for that
LSAT: 166
Dream Schools:
Berkeley
Duke
More Realistic:
Illinois
Minnesota
Boston University

Re: chances please!
No comment on your chances, but unless your school hands out punitive Ws your GPA will remain the same (unless your school also hands out the coveted A+ award).

Re: chances please!
Your school options will seriously go to the next level if you retake and get like 3 or 4 more points. If you are set with your score, then yeah, I'd aim mostly in that 20-30 range of schools.

3.95, 166 would have a good shot at Boalt, especially if you are a California resident. If not I still think you have a decent chance given their lowered medians this year.
Retake could be useful though.
