I think of safety schools as those being where you have a solid/likely chance of admission based off of your GPA and LSAT, ideally your GPA and LSAT are at or above the median as well as being located in area that you would want to practice/live.
@david.busis Thanks for that feedback! Just out of curiosity, would a person still be able to write an LSAT once they started law school or they are stuck with whatever the LSAT score(s) they used for the law school admission when they transfer?
Don't take my words to heart because I really don't know the answer, but if I was in your situation, I'd call the admission offices to see what their thoughts of it are.
It also depends on the strength of the given year. Right now, most admission councilors I have talked to have claimed that the percentile rule doesn't really apply right now. A lot of them have said that it ultimately depends on the individual circumstance
