Undergraduate at top 30 university with average softs and personal statement. Looking to work big law in NY/DC/Boston and wanted to know chances at NYU, UVA, and Georgetown (Fordham/GW/BU/BC would be options as well). I am also of South American descent and would like to know if that gives me any sort of URM boost.

I think the URM boost would depend where from South America and your exact ethnicity, but someone else will have to tell you. Assuming no URM boost, you should still get $$$ from GW, BU and Fordham. You should apply to NYU and the rest of the t14 down from there.
