Hi team. I'm a 3L - top 33% at Tier 2 - Undergrad Economics. Just started with down the tax course road and am really enjoying it and expecting A's in Income, corporate, and Estate Tax. Will have a great recommendation from tax prof. Just curious as to whether or not I should bother applying to the top 3 (and yes I know all i have to lose is 75 bucks and time) or apply a little lower down the line (BU, UW, USD)? Any advice is great - Thanks.

Congrats in advance. Depending upon your location, you may also consider applying to Washington University St Louis, Vanderbilt, George Washington, and WCL.

Vanderbilt and GW don't have graduate tax programs?...what exactly were you referring to?
