Stanford and Yale are most likely out, but stranger things have happened I guess.

Unless you're a VA resident or applied ED, UVA is really tough because they allot a significant portion of their incoming class to in-state students. NYU will be tough as well.

I think you have some good admits with William and Mary and W&L, but you need to aim a little bit lower within the T14. You have a good shot at places like Cornell, Georgetown, and Northwestern will love your work experience.

Yes. Cornell and GULC are most likely without an ED. ED to UVA would be a possibility.

MVPD ED are all realistic possibilities.

Your numbers seem to be in line with Berkeley, and since you're already in Cali you may qualify for California Resident tuition rates (which is still pretty steep). With all this in mind, I would still opt for Northwestern, which feeds one of the bigger legal markets in the country and has an older incoming class.

Best of luck this cycle.

Thanks, everyone! I appreciate your help calibrating - I'll take another serious look at Northwestern in particular.

I think you should apply to Berkeley also.
