Numbers

Post by perfunctory » Mon Feb 08, 2016 5:47 pm

If my gpa is below a school's 25th, and my lsat is a school's median, do I have a good chance of getting in? I figure softs do play a role here. But I figure,
with my median lsat, they can afford to let someone with a >75th gpa and below median lsat in w/o hurting their numbers. This just means more tuition for them, but i'm not sure if things work this way.

Without a lot more information, you will not get an accurate answer.

Go to mylsn.info, lawschoolnumbers.com, and lsac.org to compare your numbers to others.

Good luck! I hope you get into your top choice.

Depends on how good the rest of your application is. Softs matter, but how you frame your candidacy also matters.
