Pretty sure you might get into all of them... It's virtually a given you will get into #1-5 on you list.
Harvard yeah its a longer shot but still URM 170 = some nice ass offers.
You will have a choice between possibly harvard or some sweet scholarships

Check out a user named Gametime on LSN from last year's cycle. Similar numbers and I think she got Harvard.

Yale? Stanford? Worth a shot. Unless you have a particular reason not to, I'd definitely apply at Columbia, Chicago and NYU.

I hope so...Im not depending on my URM status, Ive worked hard. Though I won't refute that if accepted, it played a factor. But Im willing to pay the $75 to put me out of my misery. Thanks for the encouragement and good luck to you guys...

I strongly suggest that you apply to the entire T-14.

A black female from my school got HLS with a 3.3/169 so if you apply early and put a good package together I think you'd have a great shot. Best of luck!
