Top US law school medians & acceptance rates

Below are the top US law school LSAT, GPA, & GRE medians, as well as their acceptance rates. A quick reminder of what these are and why they matter:
  • An LSAT median is the LSAT score that falls in the middle of an incoming class's distribution of LSAT scores. Half the scores are above the median and half the scores are below it.
  • If your top LSAT score is below the median, you'll probably need to make up for it with an above-median GPA. If your top score is above the median, you have a good chance of getting in.
  • A median is not an average, so being close to a school's median doesn't necessarily matter. You either hit the median or you don't. One point makes a difference.
