I hope at least take a month off right before though, and maybe travel somewhere fun. I may ride Harvards wl if I got on, but probably would need to make a decision before July. I think I would like to have it all decided before June.
There's so many great places to explore right here in the US. I would just do something fun around here for that month. Rent an RV and just road trip!
I may do this, although my wife is from Europe, so if we visit her family, other countries would be pretty easy to get to. A month in Europe would be pretty fun. That said, I have never seen anything in the middle of America, and I really think I should. Zion park, yellowstone, grand canyon, Yosemite.

Zion and Yosemite are the dopest dope. If you're into Skiing/snowboarding too, Utah is great for that.

Ooh thanks for posting. Really hoping GPA medians will drop a bit...

I know it won't happen, but if we had some GPA drops I would be soooo happy.

A boy can dream.

I'm applying! But it's not very high on my list.

Everything is driven by USNWR rankings, and LSAT is a large part of those rankings:

Selectivity (weighted by 0.25)

Median LSAT scores (0.125): These are the combined median scores on the Law School Admission Test of all 2014 full-time and part-time entrants to the J.D. program.

Median undergraduate GPA (0.10): This is the combined median undergraduate grade-point average of all the 2014 full-time and part-time entrants to the J.D. program.

Acceptance rate (0.025): This is the combined proportion of applicants to both the full-time and part-time J.D. program who were accepted for the 2014 entering class.

It is good to have a 170+ score right now.

Hopefully Mike will chime in saying it's not the case. My GPA is fine, but at or slightly below median for a lot of T-14s..
