Took the LSAT twice, score went down the second time - really wasn't happy about that. My current top 5 are (in no specific order):
WVU
U of Tennessee-Knoxville
Mercer
Ohio State
Case Western Reserve

Update 9/5/08 - Received a fee waiver from University of Virginia. I guess I'll go for it, even though I don't have a shot there.

Update 1/22/09 - So far, here's the deal...I'm not expecting decent offers from Knoxville or Case, and I really can't afford to go to Ohio with no scholarship or Temple with a nonrenewable 12k scholarship. Therefore, my choices are Mercer or WVU. I'm going in to interview at Mercer (I hope) for the Woodruff Scholarship, which is an additional living stipend. WVU has told me that they cannot give me a living stipend because they only give stipends above tuition to minority applicants. While I feel that this is rather unfair (and arguably unconstitutional under the SCOTUS decision banning schools from using separate applicant pools in making these decisions), I am not going to press the issue on that angle. Instead, I am going to be contacting WVU and attempting to negotiate. If WVU cannot negotiate, then I'm headed to Mercer.
