Harvard medians for last year and predictions for this year

Can anyone tell me what last year's medians were and whether they are predicted to fall or increase

3.89/173, I think, but you really couldn't have Googled that?

I'd bet my mortgage on them staying essentially the same.

Actually, I don't know if Harvard provided medians last year. The 25/75 for GPA was 3.77/3.95 and 170/175 for LSAT. For all we know, the LSAT median last year could have been 172. Doubt it'll change this year. H would probably accept a smaller class over dipping to a LSAT median of 171.

Harvard maintained its 173: https://officialguide.lsac.org/Release/ ... spx?sid=61.

All schools report their 25th/median/75th to the ABA for both LSAT and GPA. Some schools only release part of that information to the public before the ABA publishes all of it.

This is exactly what I was looking for: official data. Thanks!
