[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a T-14 law professor and have served on our admissions committee. OP, major really does not matter. GPA and test scores matter. [/quote] Does anything other than GPA/LSAT matter? Like references, personal statements, ECs[/quote] Yes, there are things that matter for applicants on the bubble, but only those in the narrow "maybe" range. More than 90% get in on GPA and LSAT alone. On the bubble schools may care about things that show maturity or improved employment prospects. For example, having a PhD in the hard sciences, being a Rhodes Scholar, having done Peace Corps, having done Teach for America, having been a foster child, having overcome extreme personal adversity, etc. None of these are a substitute for a good GPA and LSAT, but can help if your scores are on the cusp.[/quote] Agree (I'm the law prof PP).
