No real chance at UVA or Texas.
Have you considered retaking the LSAT? It could give you a shot at the above schools and really improve your chances of getting money at UF/FSU. And also, go gators!

I donno what you are talking about when you say no real chance at UVA.
ED to UVA and you will get in.
Then apply to UCLA, USC, Berkeley, Vandy. You will get something. Dont go any lower than vandy. The job market is too shitty to go any lower.

This. OP, do you think you've maxed out your LSAT potential?

My bad on UVA, but I still think you should retake the LSAT!

I agree with the others. You have a decent/good chance at UVA if you apply ED relatively soon. You'll probably be waitlisted or rejected if you apply regular decision and getting in off their waitlist isn't easy.
Texas and UCLA are toss-ups-you probably won't get into either initially though maybe you will later on off a wait list. You should get into GW but likely won't get any scholarship money (not worth the insane amount of debt IMO). You'll be in at UF, FSU, and Miami with decent money unless they yield protect you but in this economy these schools are much riskier.
IMO you should ED to UVA or retake the LSAT
