Evening!
My stats right now are 164 LSAT / 3.5 GPA and living in FL. Definitely applying to FSU/UF and hoping for scholarships, but not sure where else to apply that would be feasible (in respect to my scores and financially).
Currently thinking about:
UW
Alabama
Illinois
WUSTL
Also, I am very open to recommendations of higher ranking schools (about UF/FSU) with chances of scholarships

I've taken it three times on the nose! And thanks for the site, it's definitely helping with narrowing down where to apply!

Illinois was very generous with scholarships this past cycle, so that would be a good school to use for scholarship negotiation. Also, maybe look into Indiana-Bloomington and Iowa. They're also generous.
Obviously, you shouldn't matriculate to any of these schools if you have a desire to practice in Florida. They're simply higher ranked and generous.

these are the sort of numbers that adcomms at middling regionals dream of b/c they can give you no more than a nominal scholly and you won't have a shot at t14s
retake, and also realize that without a noticeably higher lsat you will go to a school where far and away your best shot at a job will be in the state the school is located in -- if you are indifferent between all these different states, knock yourself out, but you may want to think about where you want to be in the long run

Had almost identical numbers to you last cycle and got full @ Illinois.
