Notre Dame- Okay shot, ~50%
Illinois- Good shot
Michigan- Out
Northwestern- Out
OSU- In
Indiana- In
My thoughts using LSN. Things you mentioned in your second post won't matter.

Since you seem to be targeting Midwestern schools, throw in an application to WashU. I've heard they are looking for 167+ applicants.

Indiana - In

It is damn near difficult to break into the T14 without 170+, especially if your GPA does not meet the median. I would say if you want really want a shot at Michigan & Northwestern, then plan to retake. If not, get your apps in as soon as possible. GL!

P.S. Also check out LSN; you will be able to get a good grip of how applicants with similar #s fared. :wink:

I would really like to get into Notre Dame. I am waiting right now for one of my professors letters of recommendation to reach LSAC. I have letter from a judge I interned with, the president of my school, and my basketball coach. How important is time? Should I just send out my app with those three or should I wait till it comes in?

If they do scholarships anything like last year, I bet OP gets the standard $10k/year splitter package.

I would add WUSTL and Minnesota, and remove Michigan and Northwestern. You should get into the other 4 on your list.
