Maybe, i just mean that more than the 4.4% of the t14 that is international appears on these sites. Like it sure appears when i look i see 10% as international, mostly asian. Which adds up as online resources tend towards gunners and we all know the SEA insane parent memes lol

ANd on another note, something i planeed to include in my victory lap r/lsat post that never came to be, is the funny part of the t14 re international messaging: they take 4.4% or so of the t14 as international, which is about 180 students lmfao aka if you are international, you better be a 180 special type to take a spot from an american.

schools almost have a reverse incentive to give out As..W/Ls are loaded, and they can make the W/Ls fight for the remaining As/seats..At least that is how I see it...
