Hi everyone!
I am currently a junior in undergrad with a GPA of 3.95. Hoping to push that up to a 3.97/3.98, if possible. My softs are pretty standard, nothing special.
I took the LSAT for the first time in December and scored a 170. My practice average going into the test was a 172, so I'm contemplating retaking.
However, with my stats as they are, I was wondering what my chances are like at the following schools:
Harvard
Yale (pretty sure I don't have a chance here)
Stanford (same as above)
Columbia
NYU
UPenn
Duke
Berkeley
Georgetown
UCLA
Also, I'm not entirely sure how merit aid works. Any idea of whether I can expect significant money from some of these schools?
Any advice is much appreciated.

Re: 3.95/170 Chances?
Decent shot at HYS, more H than the other two. Everywhere else you have a pretty good shot with that GPA/LSAT. You can probably negotiate merit aid from the lower T14 and maybe a little from CCN. Congrats on the score.
Look at myLSN.info to see what a retake could do for you. A couple more points and you've got H on lock and possibly big $$$ at CCN.
