I love how the categories stipulated were "T14" and "Biglaw," but nearly everyone decided to gratuitously make sure they showed their vault number and specific USNWR range. <3 you TLS rock on

This is correct IME. Most of the law review kids and other top grades kids were the ones that you're 99.9% sure have been nerd shut ins studying 24/7 their entire life

Most splitters were lazy in college, and tend not to make a 180 in LS. I sure as hell didn't. However, the splitters are still intelligent enough to land somewhere around median even without studying.

I should disclose this was at a school where pretty much everyone felt secure in a positive outcome. Might be different at a school where the situation is more dire

Lol I got plastered 4 nights a week in college, got a 4.0. Did something similar in law school, but not that extreme. Top 10% at t14. 165/163 on the LSAT, V5 firm. There is just something about knowing how to get top grades. I don't know what it is but whatever it is it definetely translates (at least it did for me and other people I knew) to law school

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.
