If you are a splitter, the ball is in your court. It’s up to you to convince the adcomms that they should let you in over the competition. They know you will likely succeed (your gpa/lsat signals this) just as they that know the splitter you’re in competition with will likely succeed. You can seperate yourself by showing that you will be a positive contributor to the academic and cultural environment on campus. Do you have strong morals? Are you an interesting person? Will you bring a unique perspective to the law school? If an adcomm can read your file and answer questions like these in the affirmative, that’s what will give you the nod over another splitter who fails to demonstrate these qualities through his or her application.
