[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would guess it's more likely for med school because pre-reqs and MCATS are very objective data on which they can determine likely success in medical school. Law school is probably much more subjective and very much driven by prestige. [/quote] It is very driven by LSAT score. [/quote] I worked in law school ad missions for a while for a top fourteen. It’s driven by the LSAT, the GPA, but also the prestige level of the school. You absolutely need a higher gpa if you are coming from East boonf*$k State than you do if you are coming from, say, Amherst, Williams, Yale, Wesleyan, Vassar, etc.[/quote] Right, but this doesn't hold true for med school, because that field is generally smarter and less insecure and knows that the data-namely MCAT--reveals what they need to know about prospective students, not the prestige of the undergrad.
