Questions about a 160 LSAT
Is 160 a good LSAT score?
It depends on the school. A 160 is at or above the median LSAT at 114 of 198 US law schools, and below the 25th percentile at 48. At a school where 160 is above the median, the LSAT helps an application; where it is under the 25th percentile, at least three in four of the entering class scored higher.
What law schools can I get into with a 160 LSAT?
No LSAT score guarantees admission, and GPA carries real weight. On the LSAT alone, 160 meets or beats the median at 114 US law schools. The most selective of them by median LSAT are Denver Sturm College of Law (median 160), Drexel Kline Law (median 160), Georgia State Law (median 160), Nebraska Law (median 160) and Oregon Law (median 160).
What GPA goes with a 160 LSAT?
7 US law schools report a median LSAT of exactly 160. Their median GPAs run from 3.54 to 3.81. A GPA at or above a school's median alongside a 160 puts an applicant at or above the middle of that class on both numbers.
