Chance me/Help me decide 167, 3.9x mid

Hi everyone,

I am interested in becoming a state or possibly a federal prosecutor. Preferably on the east coast, but open to other regions. Currently I’m thinking of applying to a few of the lower-mid T-14 and a bunch of T30 schools. I start a paralegal job for the state in June and plan to apply late September, so I’ll have 4 months of work experience when I apply (a full year by the time I attend law school). I will have a letter of rec from a professor and from the attorney I work under, both of whom I have strong relationships with. I feel this all gives my application a very strong narrative. Do all these factors give my application a chance to get into a T-14 with a decent scholarship where with LRAP I can come out with very little debt after 10 years working? Or should I just not apply to any T-14 because I won’t get the scholarships I need?

I am retaking in June and might try again in September. Currently PTing 167-172, so I think I can get my LSAT up, but not banking on it. If I do get it to a 169 or 170 should I apply to T6?

Also, how important is the school I attend if I wanna be a prosecutor? Is it only important if I wanna be a federal prosecutor? Also, would love any school recommendations or schools to stay away from! Right now I have a list of like 30 schools I think I like, but would love to get that number down to fewer than 20, so recommendations would help with that.
