If you live in Florida, check the public schools first: in-state tuition can cut the sticker price sharply, and some states let you establish residency after your first year. Compare each school's median LSAT to your score as a rough rule of thumb: at the median you are competitive, a few points below you are reaching, a few points above you are strong.
