You at least owe it to yourself to see how good those options are. Nothing wrong with picking USC/UCLA if you really love LA, but think about T14.

It's mostly that I know I want to work in San Diego - I love it there. I figured it'd be easier to get a job there if I went to a school near that area. I'm not sure how job opportunities would work out between T14 versus USC/UCLA (in terms of getting placed in San Diego after law school).

Apply broadly, especially since you can use scholarship offers to leverage more money out of the schools you want to attend, even though you'll probably get great money from USC/UCLA, poss a full-ride, that would be a great option for your goals. congrats on the great LSAT score btw you should have some excellent options.

Definitely throw Berkeley in the mix, at least. UCLA/USC/Berkley and maybe an East Coast T-14 that has the ability to get you back to CA.
