3.37 / 168

I guess I have average softs. Cuban American, not URM. Just graduated December.

I'm just gonna lay out my reaches and main targets and see what you think.

Reaches:
1. UVA (ED)
2. Northwestern
3. Cornell
4. UCLA
5. UT
6. Vanderbilt

Targets:
7. U Southern California
8. WUSTL
9. GW
10. BU
11. BC


I've already checked out lsp and lsn, but wanna see what you guys think. Should I expect to get into at least one reach? Which of the targets should I expect to get WL or rejected (USC I know).

EDIT: wanted to add that I was Political Science at _______ State University.

exactly why UCLA is a reach and not a target. I feel that I have sufficiently learned my lesson to not slack off, like seriously.

thanks. If I get to choose between the four schools left, I'd be pretty happy.

Would you apply to GULC PT with my numbers? If I got in, but didn't really want to do part time even for 1L, could I use that admit to try and negotiate for a better scholarship at a lower ranked school?
