GPA/LSAT are not all that matters

There are really four types of applicants:

1. Those above both medians – (and note, Anna speaks to being below the GPA median, which for Chicago is important).

2. Those who are “reverse splitters” – above median GPA, but below median LSAT.

3. Regular splitter – below median GPA and above median LSAT.

4. Below both medians: better bring a HUGE hook.

Logically, undergrad school may come into play in Cat 3.

But the real question, is what is the admit % of those in category 1 who attend Podunk Regional State?

And btw: if Anna, or any other consultant, was to suggest that Cat 1 was *only/i] about the numbers, she’d lose a lot of potential clients. In other words, it’s be bad for 'bidness.
