And if you want Internet data, look at the last page:

This completely backs up my position:
- Going to a first-rate college gives you a slight edge in law school admissions.
- While GPAs/LSAT scores are extremely important, there is a range that could result in admission, and meeting a GPA/LSAT cutoff alone is not determinative of admission or rejection.
In short: it’s not true that having a GPA and LSAT score above a law school’s alleged “cutoff” will automatically get you in, and failing to get those numbers will automatically get you rejected. Undergrad college name and other factors also play a role, however small.
