GPA

Does GPA from a tougher school count for anything? Do admissions officers take that into consideration when they see your overall undergraduate GPA?

To some degree, but they will generally just consider the number. They will get information like what the median GPA at your school is, so they will be able to compare to that. But regardless of what school you attended, the straight number of your GPA is what's factored into law school rankings and statistics. So, that's generally their biggest concern.

As far as my knowledge is concerned, only the raw number matters. Admission committees may take your relative ranking into consideration though (especially if you note it on your résumé, your undergraduate institution is infamous for rigor, etc).
