Historic LSAT/GPA Data and USNWR Rank Forum

[Kring345]

Someone else posted a link to historical GPA/LSAT data in another thread. I found it kinda interesting.

Also, I randomly found the USNWR going back to 1987:

ETA: this is supposed to be a FUN thread, not a retarded debate, which most threads turn into. We'll see how that works out.

Anyone notice any interesting trends?

Interesting how "only" 91.2% of Yale grads pass the bar over 6 years in comparison to Harvard, Columbia, and NYU's 95%-99% rates.

Is that of all grads or just grads who sat for the bar? I would say Yale's lower rate would be caused by all of the legal academics.

I wouldn't read too much into Yale's bar passage rate. I mean, over 6 years, 95.6% of Franklin Pierce Law Center grads pass the bar...
