My Law school numbers profile is: http://lawschoolnumbers.com/strongblackwoman

Retake, get into HYS, prosper.

I dont know if I believe this profile (Im thinking its a fake) or the person would have probably explained why they were such an outlier. It would take a lot for those scores to get in, I mean HYS do have to worry about the person being able to do well once they get in.

And it swiftly vanishes.

I just dont see sub 160 making the cut. You usually dont see that for any T14 (usually)
That profile was the only sub 160 to get in to Columbia in the past three cycles, so... yeeeah.
