Ignoring the rankings

Application Process

I am applying for fall 2027. I am trying to apply as early as possible since my LSAT score was not what I wanted it to be. I am sitting at a 155 LSAT and 3.86 GPA. I used 7Sage and LSD calculator so see my reach/target/safety schools. I’m trying to apply to 2 reach schools and 3 safety schools and 5 target schools for a total of 10 applications. How far down in the rankings should I allow myself to look for safety schools without being too discouraged if I attend a 150+ ranked school?
