You have would have a good shot of getting into UPenn or Mich if you apply ED. An ED app to UVa would be a lock. If you want NYU on up I would suggest you retake the LSAT and shoot for at least a 170. Anything I or any other poster says can be found out by perusing lawschoolnumbers.com.

Also, I noticed you said NESCAC. Did you attend one of W/A/S?

Yes, thank you. I have but I am unfortunately unable to find anyone with similar enough stats and softs to serve as a model. Chemistry majors are few and far between, especially splits.

As many people on this board can attest, majors and softs are very much secondary to numbers. With a GPA higher than 3.85, you'll notice that people with even 160s were admitted to one of MVP provided that they applied early decision.

I actually think that your best option would be to retake in June and aim for a 170. As you are now you will not receive much if any money from t14s (unless of course you are urm).

If you can retake in June and bump that score to a 170-172, I'd say you're top 6 secure...especially with a science background.

Kudos on your awesome GPA~

If I were you, I would ED to one of MVP early in this new cycle :-)
