<p>If you look at LSN it is pretty clear that the numbers rule the game. Unless only people from top undergrads use that site, I would say LSAT and GPA matter more than where the GPA came from. </p>
<p>That being said, there might be a slight edge given to the marginal applicants with the exact LSAT and GPA who come from more respected undergrad institutions than the applicants who come from lesser known places and majored in basket weaving. </p>
<p>Also, the comment that Harvard takes more of their undergrads than ones from other schools doesn’t necessarily mean they favored their own. There is a good chance that those students did very well on their LSAT. Since they obviously did well on their SAT’s and in school in general to get into Harvard in the first place, they could just be smart and do well, which shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone. So of course they would have a high percentage of qualified applicants.</p>
