Does the undergraduate school matter?

My school has -56,000- students and we sent 31 kids to Harvard Law for 2005.



Are you sure that is what the chart means? I thought it was a calculation of the total number of students attending Harvard Law who originated from UT - Austin.

Even if that is not the case, the number is still misleading. At any given year, alumni from UT could have applied to HLS, and perhaps all admits were only students from Plan II. The chart to which you are referring makes no reference to the class of the student applying to Harvard, just either the amount of students currently matriculated, or those who matriculated in Fall 2005.
