How does the waitlist work for schools in general?

Post by FifisMilkshake » Fri Jun 13, 2014 4:23 am

I've been waitlisted at a reach school. My LSAT is right at their 25th percentile and my GPA is lower than their 25th percentile. Does that mean I'm pretty much at the bottom of their waitlist?

I guess what I'm asking is do schools generally judge only on numbers or do they consider other factors like how much a waitlister wants to come and etc...
