Naive or Audaciously chasing my goals?

Back in 2004, I got into a T20 with a GPA that wasn’t much higher than that an a 98th percentile LSAT score. (Yes, it helped that my GPA was in engineering school - 80% of my class got below a 3.2.) I am assuming that it’s much easier to get into the T20 now than it was then, and I’m not a minority.

If you break a 170 on the LSAT, you’re in at a T14 with scholarship money. No two ways about it.

The last statistics I saw on affirmative action for African-Americans stated that only about twenty to thirty African-American students have the stats to get into a T14, and the T14 takes the minority students whose stats would put them in the first, second, and third tiers. If these statistics have radically changed, please say so, but otherwise, the OP is in at a T14 with money if he breaks a 170 on the LSAT.
