Default Re: Going to take the LSAT in October, just started prep yesterday...

There was an interesting profile on lawschoolnumbers of a black guy that had a 3.5 and a 167.

He got into HLS, Columbia, Stanford....listing that he was black.

Then he got into Georgetown, and ended up going there because he didn't report that he was black, so he felt that he got in on his own merits.

I was gonna hate on him for being black+college republicans+ getting into HLS with those stats, but I thought that was an interesting little experiment.


I remember it being crushing, typing my numbers into lawschoolnumbers.com and thinking hey "15 of 27 people got into harvard with my stats!" then realizing that like 13 of the 15 were minorities.
