Are softs really that little of a factor in admission? And I'm assuming this means most schools will simply look at my highest LSAT score?

Thanks for the help so far guys - it's much appreciated and I'm feeling a lot better. One final question and I'll leave you all alone and fly majestically into the sunset. How much of a boost does applying ED to Columbia give me? I'd rather go to Stanford, but I don't want to waste my ED opportunity and I'm not sure my chances at the former (as a note I have 3 close family members - sister/parents - who attended Stanford UG, although I doubt admissions gives a rat's ass). Thoughts?

Once again, thank you so much for your time.

From what we can tell, EDing to Columbia provides no boost, or a boost so small as to not be statistically significant. Generally speaking, a candidate like you EDing is awesome for Columbia, and a pretty bad deal for you.
