  1. Northwestern (Chicago) is my first choice, but I'm still waiting to see what my LSAT score is to figure out if I have a shot there. I'm also applying to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (where I'm completing my undergrad), University of Nevada-Las Vegas, Vanderbilt, University of Georgia, Washington University (St. Louis), Southern Illinois University (Carbondale), and will probably throw in John Marshall (Chicago) and Loyola (Chicago) just for reassurance.
  2. I'm in agreement with a few of the other posters who stated that a 144 is "crap". However, you're only a freshman and you still have time. I am taking the LSAT next summer and have just begun studying. A 144 will probably get you in somewhere, but I'd sure hate to see where. To get in a top law school (top 10), you will need a 170+. A top 25 school might require at least a 160. Scores range from 120-180, with an average score of 150. Buy a Kaplan or Princeton Review LSAT study book and spend the next few months going through that, then the semester before you take the LSAT (probably the 2nd semester of your junior year), take a Princeton Review or Kaplan classroom course. I've heard they help greatly; it certainly can't hurt. I know people whose scores have jumped 20 points from the first practice test to the last--putting themselves in a COMPLETELY higher tier of law schools.
