when did you apply, are you a resident of VA, and did you ED to any... regardless, Stanford may be out of the question for you...

I would GUESS it's hit or miss at UVA (unless you're a resident or ED- but with those numbers I wouldn't bc you can get money in the T14), good chance at Chicago (in if you ED), and almost none at Stanford because of the GPA but worth the app fee if you're not particularly tight for money.

(We have similar numbers- good luck!)

ETA: In at UT with $$

you will likely get in at Chicago, UVA is a 50/50 especially since ur not a EDer nor a resident of Virginia, UT should be close to certainty... almost no chance at Stanford...

No chance at Stanford. Good chance at Chicago RD, near lock ED. For UVA, lock ED, shot RD.

So why don't you explain how your GPA dipped .25 and your LSAT dipped a point since this:

Agree with everyone else you're not getting into Stanford but Chicago and UVa is a real possibility.

Sure... at that time I posted that I was doing an estimate of my LSAT based on a projection of my practice tests I took the actual LSAT this past october.... but for this semester I didn't do to well which explains the drop in my GPA.....

Numbers twin here, and I'm going to echo what everyone else is saying:
UChicago - good chance (I hope!)
Stanford - not really any chance
But UVA - by the numbers a good shot, but who knows? They're known to WL a lot of OOS RD non-URMs.
