I second the comment made about UVA, at least relative to other law schools. Honestly, I think Harvard is a bit conservative relative to some of the other top law schools, but that's more anecdotal.

I would say it lowers the requirement for LSAT takers.Yet, multiple taking is not encouraged. For top law schools, they will know if they know you take many times.
