Just got my scores and I was looking on the LSAC website regarding each schools 25-75% and was curious as to what a splitter is? lets say your LSAT is in the 25% but your GPA is in the 75% does that make you a splitter ?

    Regular splitter: GPA < 25th, LSAT> 75th
    Reverse splitter: GPA > 75th, LSAT < 25th

    Soooo in my case I would be a reverse splitter for the school I am looking at applying. How does one determine or approximate the chances of getting in to that school if you are a splitter ?

    Splitters tend to have unpredictable cycles. For what it's worth, many people argue there's truly no such thing as a "reverse splitter" due to the fact that higher GPAs are quite common. As a matter of fact, most students applying have higher GPA %tiles compared to their LSAT scores according to the stats.
