170/3.75 Coming Straight from Middlebury Undergrad (merit?)

I have a 170 (1 take), applied first week of December, new to the forum. I have a 3.75 from Williams. Good softs (well as good as they can be without work experience) - Student Senate, committee involvement, debate VP, etc. TX residency.

I am curious about admissions chances and possibility of merit aid.

Harvard - don't even bother chancing me...I'm hopeless
Stanford
Columbia
Chicago
NYU
Berkeley
Penn
Michigan
UVA
Duke
Northwestern
Cornell
Georgetown
UCLA
Texas
Vanderbilt
WashU
Minnesota
William and Mary

Would like to do biglaw, but I'm not really sure. I just want a good quality of life and the ability to pay back my loans (which is why I want biglaw)

Thanks!

What's a Middleberry? Are they good dipped in chocolate?

You're likely in good shape outside of the T6. You may have a shot at CCN but I kinda doubt it.

Chops is right with your acceptances/rejections, although I think you're looking at full ride or close to it from the schools outside the T-14.
