TLS Admissions Spreadsheets Data 2013-2016

Post by TexasENG » Mon May 16, 2016 4:21 pm

I took all of the raw data that everyone has posted over the years on the TLS admissions spreadsheets and combined them into a workbook to see if there was any interesting conclusions. I was mostly interested in looking at scholarship offers and amounts by a candidates major stats (LSAT and uGPA). I didn't really find anything revolutionary in the data but still found the exercise interesting and figured I would share what I had done. All of the data is in this workbook so you can look at other data subsets such as time from complete to UR to etc...

Anyway let me know what you think / if you have any questions regarding this. Hopefully a couple people find it interesting.

Ninja Edit: Please download a copy and don't make changes to the one that is linked. Also if viewing the one that is linked you'll see the third tab is a little wonky looking, this is due to the way I pulled the data and on a downloaded version these lines are typically hidden.

Definitely aliens... :)

I had meant to look into this one specifically actually as its likely an issue with the data for Yale being messed up by one or two bad data points. I kept forgetting as I wasn't overly interested in the Yale data as it was a small set and I don't really have a chance to get in anyway lol.

But this shows why you have to treat the data skeptically.

Edit: Just found the Issue. On the 2019 data there were two "admits" with an Anon as their LSAT. This messed up the averages. I'll update the file at some point on the main link. But fwiw Yale average admit LSAT is a 175 per this data set

Just posted a new version. This has a new tab that allows you to enter in your GPA / LSAT and a +/- factor to see the subset of people admitted / denied / received scholarships with your stats. Also this has the updated Yale data (sorry people with 165 LSATs you probs aren't going to Yale).
