Ideal Month to Apply? September vs. October
Posted: Mon May 22, 2017 3:06 pm
Is there a discernible advantage to applying in September over October, all else equal?
A blog post from PowerScore states that "T14 applicants on the whole see about a 34% increased chance of admission for each earlier month they apply (September application vs. October application, for example)." (http://blog.powerscore.com/lsat/does-su ... ur-chances). Of course, the increase could be affected by factors like the fact that better qualified applicants tend to apply early, but 34% seems significant. According to the same post, there is a 129% increased chance in getting into UChicago for each earlier month applied.
Thoughts?
