Just curious if anyone has noticed if there is a correlation with the law schools that are soliciting you post LSAT to apply with fee waivers with acceptances?

@sheridickson10526 anecdotal evidence, i got nice number of waivers but performed pretty much as you'd expect for someone with my numbers. did save some application money though..
Thanks everyone, @nicole Hopkins I don't think this is the case for the ones I have received as I am well above most of their medians & over 75th percentile.
@as5324392 they want to keep their acceptance % low, this may be a factor in the USNEWS ranking so obviously schools will do their best to rank as high as possible.
what do mean by this? why would they want to solicit you to reject you?
If your numbers are above their 75th and they're coupling the fee waivers with enticements to visit such as offers to cover the cost of your transportation/accommodation, then their interest is probably genuine. But beware, especially if your numbers aren't impressive when compared to their medians.

Yes--they do get some data and ramp up solicitations following score release. But keep in mind that any school that is soliciting you with lots of nice promises is doing so primarily to increase the number of people they reject. It's not any more personal than that.
