Sorry to all those getting held, but I have no doubt a lot of you will get in... this world would stop making sense otherwise.
Just wanted to put in my $.02 about indices and what-not, based on my own experience. If Columbia were basing their decisions based simply on an applicant's index, I would have had no shot at all getting in. My LSAT is below their median, and I don't have a reportable GPA.
I think there is some merit to the argument that they are (at least for now) being holistic in their evaluations (not to say that the folks with high numbers aren't awesome all around).
Good luck all!
