Would love to be a Blue Devil. Worried my gpa is way below the floor, but maybe a great LSAT could make up for that.

Re: Duke c/o 2017 Applicants (2013-2014 Cycle)
Didn't it just drop from 170 to 169 last year? If so, I think it will probably stay at 169 unless there's another large decrease in applicants.Dr. Dre wrote:IN

I do believe there is a chance that Duke's Median LSAT drops to 168, however, I do not think it is likely. Their GPA median is more likely to decline. Anecdotally, I just heard of someone with a 175/2.9 get off the Duke waitlist for this cycle, showing that they are compromising to keep their 169 Median.

Re: Duke c/o 2017 Applicants (2013-2014 Cycle)
Duke had more applicants this cycle (one of only 4 schools that showed an increase in applicants) & they have two rounds of ED & priority track. Part of this is Duke's excellent biglaw placement last several years]. I don't see how their median LSAT or GPA drops. Frankly, they were very well positioned overall (one or two deep splitters will not change it that much).
