How exactly do admissions officers weigh your LSAT score and GPA? Well, it's complicated.Law School Admissions Index: LSAT vs. GPA
LSAC's website will help you calculate your chances at various law schools. It uses each law school's "admissions index" (a formula unique to each school weighing LSAT scores and GPAs).
Enter your undergraduate GPA and (presumed) LSAT score. Sort the results by likelihood in descending order to see at which schools you have the highest likelihood of success.
This tool is based on info that each law school submits about its admission index, so it's accurate as far as LSAT and GPA are concerned.
Factors that it doesn't consider are diversity, legacy, personal statement, recommendation letters, disciplinary record, etc. Obviously, LSAT and GPA are the big two, but the others have some impact as well.
Enjoy!
