U Houston - In. Probably with some money, but I don't think they give very much.
SMU - In with money.
Tulane - Probably in, though they are kind of all over the board.
Miami? - Not a clue.

Where do you want to work? Texas? How strong are your local legal connections?

I live in Texas but want to go to the cheapest school that'll give me a chance to make money. My local legal connections are not strong. I worked at a small 10 person firm for a year and have lunch with a lawyer from a big firm once ever 2-3 months. Haha.

I'm retaking in December anyway so who knows.
