Chances at UC Berkeley, UCLA and USC?

Almost your number twin (one point less on the LSAT), and I was accepted to UCLA so I'd think you'd have a very good shot. Not sure about the others; my guess is yes at USC and unless you have strong/interesting softs, waitlist/no at Berkeley. Unfortunately, California schools prefer high GPAs so you may do better if you go outside the state.

What about University of Washington with $$$?

Splitters don't have the luxury of moving down the rankings a bit and getting more money. The smart play for the splitter is usually to just go to the best school he can get into.Excellent117 wrote:What about University of Washington with $$$?
Move out of the west coast bubble.

yeah, somewhere like NU, GULC, UVA, or Michigan is a better bet than going to what you would get into in Cali

The correct question is why would you want to spend 3 years at BoalTTT when you have the opportunity to go to a school with superior job prospects

UW doesn't give out $$$. They basically don't do merit scholarships, the only money available seems to be a PI scholarship.Excellent117 wrote:What about University of Washington with $$$?
+1 - Except slightly higher GPA and lower LSAT. Didn't apply to UCB, but UCLA waitlisted me. The odds are against you at the top end of the UC system.Adm.Doppleganger wrote:The above is all good advice but to answer your question your best shot is probably at USC. I don't really know all that much about SC cause I never wanted to go there at all but UCLA and Boalt are both gpa whorish and Boalt is just hard to get into regardless.
On a personal note I have a slightly higher LSAT and a slightly lower GPA and I was rejected at both UCLA and Boalt.
