Below both medians... So when you do get accepted you can legitimately be shocked.

What's your ideal GPA/LSAT split? Can be more moderate than the traditional 25/75 split.

I feel like 3.9/170 would be a fun place to be. You'd miss out out on HYSC, but your GPA would be high enough for lower T14 schollies and LSAT would be low enough to not have to worry too much about YP.

On the other hand, 3.6/175 would be kind of exciting, if a lot less secure money-wise.




I have a lot of time on my hands

I think a 3.6/175 isn't even much of a split. But then again neither is a 3.9/170.

But I'd take a 3.6/175 over a 3.9/170 any day of the week. 3.9/170 is a lock for almost all schools, but the 175 opens doors. And Im more of a go big or go home kinda person.

3.4/177 is mine. Not that fun to be a splitter knowing that if I hadn't screwed up undergrad that I would be in at HYS.

You just described me. It's...not that fun :P I'm most likely retaking the LSAT in Feb to negotiate scholarships, and I really wish I didn't have to (obviously). I did get interviews at Chicago & Columbia in their first waves, though, so I'm hoping that all is not lost. (I've mostly given up on H & S and didn't even apply to Y)
