Only one LSAT. I graduated at 20, currently a Peace Corps Volunteer. During college I had some decent ECs like directing an after school program for at risk youth.

What do you think I can realistically expect in terms of the T14s? Also... possibility of $?

Appreciate the appraisals!

Edit: Male, Non-URM

HYS? Well... HS because I feel like Yale is unpredictable/impossible.

Very unlikely, only chance would be stanford.

Most with your numbers seem to be looking at waitlists -> rejections. That said, I'd still apply and hope because peace corps helps a bit :)

Looking at LSN, you have a better shot at stanford than CCN. This is because Stanford is more gpa oriented and CCN are more LSAT oriented. If I had to predict, I would say you are shut out of the top6 but are in at most of 7-14 with a little money at a couple of them.

just checked hourumd. how much do you think the self-selecting nature of the data effects the following numbers that it gave me...

on hourumd 81% of non-URM applicants with my numbers got into NYU (144:33), 52% into Columbia (82:77), and 60% into Chicago (67:44)

I can't really comment, but i'd put it this way, from anecdotal evidence of people I know, people on TLS, and looking at LSN, I'd be shocked if had anywhere near those types of chances.

Apply HYS-T14. Solid chance of scholarship money at some T10s, potential for substantial money lower than that. I can't comment on other schools personally, but Michigan will likely love your softs and numbers - outside shot at Darrow consideration if you apply early enough.
