Does anyone have a link to overall nationwide LSAT percentiles? Every search I run returns a random collection of schools listing their 25/50/75 percentiles, regardless of how I word the search.

What do you mean by nationwide percentiles? Lsac tracks scores by region if that is what you are looking for. If you are trying to convert your practice test score to percentile just search LSAT score conversion chart.

Weird that the 175+ scores have increased so much.

Although I think that Spivey could elucidate on this in a better way, I don't think the increase is as substantial as it looks. Keep in mind that tens of thousands of people take the LSAT each year, and the > 175 is still less than 540 people. More people study for the exam each year, and applications are finally up. More competition in the low 170s should increase the study time for individuals PTing in that range.

Something I found interesting- 6925 people scored a 165 or above this cycle. There are only 4,360 people attending the t-14.

Still plenty of demand for law school it looks like.

Although, if you are looking at strictly numbers, why are lsat scores down across the border? I assume that number of applicants on Spiveys page is cumulative.
