[quote=Anonymous]Now, more than ever, law school admission is based on one's LSAT score, which is an extremely hard standardized test. So where one went to law school is a very good proxy for intelligence. If you look at this data from 2020, you'll see that there are only 7 schools where at least 75% of the enrolled students scored at least the 90th percentile (167), another 6 schools where at least 75% scored at least the 85th percentile (164), and another 14 schools where at least 75% scored at least the 75th percentile (160). In short, to get into college, you need good grades, good test scores, and connections. But you can brute force your way into a good law school with just good grades and good test scores. Where you went to law school is a very good proxy for your verbal and spatial IQ. https://www.ilrg.com/rankings/law/1/desc/LSATLow?name=&state=[/quote]
