Cornell U (EA)
Georgetown U
U Texas-Austin
Vanderbilt U
U Southern California
Washington U (MO)
George Washington U
U Illinois
U Minnesota-Twin Cities
Emory U
Boston U
Boston College
William and Mary
Fordham U
Washington & Lee U
U Colorado-Boulder (Instate)

Thanks
Unfortanately, being a sub-170 splitter is not ideal.

They're probably worth the apps, just for a long shot. USC on up are not, however.
edit: you still have a shot at Fordham. It's an outside shot though. Probably gonna get WL. Check out lawschoolnumbers.com

In all fairness, I think Rad is being on the "safe side." BC and Fordham can easily be replaced with waitlists.

Waitlist should be considered a soft reject.

True, and now I see that's the approach Rad was taking.

I have similar numbers (slightly higher GPA) and am looking at a lot of the same schools, but I'm also a URM woman. Schools like Mason are good safeties, maybe pick a couple more just to be on the safe side (but maybe that's just me, the more nervous I'm get as I wait to heard, I'm PILING on extra safeties).
