If an applicant is above a school's 75th percentiles for both GPA and LSAT (and assuming their softs are at least acceptable), what are their chances of getting into that school? If you know the numbers (# admitted / # applied with those stats) for a particular school, please list them.

Are there schools that are notorious for rejecting 75+/75+ applicants?

Likewise, if your numbers are “too good”, i.e. you clearly applied to the school as a safety and you will likely get admitted to much better schools, would they reject you out of a concern that you will damage their yield numbers?

Depends on the school. Yale and UVA? Decent chance at WL or reject. Lots of YP schools out there. NYU or Harvard? Like 90%+ chance of admit.
