I feel like you've got a good enough shot at Georgetown to at least make it worth a try. Chance at UVA as well. TX ED is non-binding so probably no, especially since they've been so big on GPA. Michigan seems promising as well. I dunno if I think the decreased test takers will make them less of a reach necessarily, but you've got a good shot at these. Good luck!AllDangle wrote:3.82/165, non-URM. I know my numbers put the majority of the T14 in the "reach" category for me. However, with the large decrease in the number of LSAT test takers this year I am wondering if perhaps my numbers have more potential (as some TLS'ers have been speculating). I know my chances of admission via RD are slim (input is still appreciated though), but what about my chances via ED? I will be applying next cycle.
You need to retake. None of the T14 are going to bite, even ED.AllDangle wrote:3.82/165, non-URM. I know my numbers put the majority of the T14 in the "reach" category for me.

This seems a tad optimistic to me. Georgetown didn't take a single 165 on LSN last cycle. There was one ED into the PT program this year. UVA is a straight band of red dots on 165. Michigan has some outliers, but they all look to have super softs. A drop in test takers is going to help some people around the margins but not a 165.snehpets wrote:I feel like you've got a good enough shot at Georgetown to at least make it worth a try.
