3.96/168 - ED to Chicago?

Do I have a shot? Would I have a chance in hell without ED??

And I guess more generally, do you think ED is a good idea? I'm a little worried about possibly having a BINDING debt of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Is this worth it for Chicago over any money I could possibly get? I feel like my numbers are so borderline, I just don't know what the smart move is! Are Chicago's employment prospects that much better than anywhere else I might get $ from that an acceptance from an ED would be worth it??

eek I'm just nervous!

Search on LSN.
Here's last year's cycle:

As you can see, there are two 168s and one 169 with lower GPA than you that got in ED

yes, yes, and yes (even if you get a lower T14, your low LSAT won't get much money)
go for it, your chances are about 40%
