So I took the October LSAT and came in at a 169. My dream school is Stanford, which puts me on the 25th percentile in terms of LSAT score. My undergrad LSDAS GPA was calculated to be 3.68 which is a little below 25th percentile. The real GPA was a tenth of a point higher, but I suppose that is irrelevant for my purpose. I would call myself something of a non-traditional law student. I have a Master's in Music, as well as some post grad studies, and was a professional classical guitarist/instructor for five or so years and have traveled much of the world. I only list these last things out of hope that they might somehow set me apart on my application, though that may be wishful thinking. I'm looking for a little advice here. Should I apply? or would that be tantamount to lighting a $100 bill on fire?
This seems to be an instance of when the normally accurate negation test fails. I'm thinking downturn could've caused a significant reduction of the amount of money on deposit and the banks could still increase the amount of money loaned. Maybe before the recession the banks loaned out 50% of the deposited money (let's pretend there are $100 total in the banks for simplicity's sake). They are loaning out $50. Boom, recession. The total amount on deposit drops to $80. The bankers go rogue and decide to be a little riskier with people's money (in a way that might not conflict with the tightening of standards, since those standards were never stated). Now they loan out 75% of the total deposited money or $60. The total amount of money loaned out went up by $10 (a 20% increase over the original amount). I feel like this question forces the assumption that the banks use all of their available money for loans to be made in addition to answer choice A, otherwise A isn't really necessary. Can anyone tell me if I'm nuts or not? and if so where am I going wrong here?
