What’s everyone think my chances are at Schools like Georgetown, Cornell, Boston college, Notre dame, USC? I still have time to bring my gpa even higher as I’m in my 5th semester right now.

    @tmh5947 While I covered things related to this in your other post, it is really going to come down to what your final GPA and LSAT stats are. Try playing around with both 7sages and LSAC's law school predictor. LSAC gives you an overall range, 7sage gives you a specific percentage related to the month in which you apply. I recommend using both to get an idea. You can edit the GPA and LSAT you put in to see how improving a few points on the LSAT or finishing with a higher or lower GPA would affect your chances. Given that you plan to go straight from undergrad, you are probably going to want to assume a lower third of the LSAC predictor numbers unless you have out of this world softs or are a URM. Then feel free to take the upper third.
    IE LSAC predictor says 20-35% chance.
    non-URM/non-incredible softs: assume 20-25% chance.
    URM/a former junior olympian or something assume 30-35%

    I don't know if it is that simple, but I think it is a fair way to get an accurate-ish idea of where you are. If you came in with a unique work experience or lots of volunteer experience in a law related non-profit you would bump that a few percentage points.
