Unfortunately, I have not seen any.
Speculation: I do not see why the overall test taker population would drop but URMS stay the same. The same opportunities top non-urms might be considering in place of law school should be in consideration by URMs too.

Post what ends up happening at the T-6. I am sure my fellow URM's are especially interested in hearing what happens at those schools.efresh88 wrote:Will doCalAlumni wrote:Awesome!

Cornell with 160? Well done and well deserved with that GPA. Best of luck with the rest of your cycle, keep us updated.efresh88 wrote:Will doCalAlumni wrote:Awesome!

Well I think most schools are taking the higher LSAT score so the 165 is probably what they looked at, although I know that is still a reach as well.

Keep your chin up. I truly believe that it is only a matter of time before you receive your acceptance.Wormfather wrote:Just got Priority Reserve at Duke 3.92/162 AA male. I'm going into the LSAT on Saturday and I'm going to show them what a mistake they just made.
Still...it stings.
We can't know for certain why so many strong applicants are currently being placed in Priority Reserve, but we do know that historically the tendency is that an applicant with your numbers, URM status, etc. gets in.
I feel very confident about that, and so should you. This weekend should be about securing dat money.

Thought I'd jump in here and say that I too got priority reserved at Duke today. 3.93/167 NA. Wishing luck to all!
