The law school admissions landscape

What the numbers look like across the 203 US law schools with published admissions data — and where your stats need to land to be competitive.

158

Median admitted LSAT

139–175 across schools

3.66

Median admitted GPA

3.08–4.00 across schools

164+

Competitive LSAT

Top half of programs

3.81+

Competitive GPA

Top half of programs

Across these 203 law schools, the typical admitted student sits near a LSAT of 158 and a GPA of 3.66. To be competitive at the more selective half, aim for a LSAT of 164+ with a GPA around 3.81+.

Selectivity varies widely: 35 law schools admit fewer than 1 in 5 applicants, while 19 admit more than 60%. The most selective is Yale University (4%); the most accessible is Concordia University (73%).

That spread is why a single “LSAT score I need” number is misleading — the same stats can be a Safety at one school and a Far Reach at another. Enter yours above to see the split across every school.

How the law chances calculator works

  1. 1

    Enter your LSAT score

    Type your LSAT score (range 120–180) into the calculator. Estimates are allowed — you can also enter a target score you're working towards.

  2. 2

    Enter your GPA

    Enter your undergraduate GPA (range 2.0–4.3). Use cumulative GPA on the 4.0 scale. Your match categories update immediately.

  3. 3

    Review your match categories at every school

    For each of the 203 US law schools with published admissions data, the calculator shows whether you are a Safety, Target, Reach, or Far Reach — best fits first. Safety = your stats exceed 75% of admitted students; Target = at or above the median; Reach = below median but within the admitted range; Far Reach = below the 25th percentile.

How categories are calculated

  • Safety (75-100): your stats exceed 75% of admitted students.
  • Target (50-74): at or above the median admit.
  • Reach (25-49): below median but within the admitted range.
  • Far Reach (0-24): below the 25th percentile of admitted students.

Law school uses a 60/40 LSAT/GPA weighting, the same weighting favored by most admissions committees.
