Admitted to Arizona State University7-10 splitter. Written 2/5/2025 - 2/7/2025: A mixture of immaturity, aimlessness, and trauma from being violently victimized led to years of very poor performance. Rock bottom performance. Performance so poor you would think that my goal was to do poorly. I’m saddened that I didn’t give myself the best chance at…
Go Blue! Advice for super splitters (everyone else, see below): Every “chance me” prediction tool will be wrong for you. They are trained on regression models which do an okay job for people nearish the medians, and diddly-squat for you.You have a chance at most schools for which you are above a 75th.- The reason…
…me” thing-a-doo is shit for outliers such as URMs and splitters, let alone URM splitters. Be careful on the internet. It isn’t just adcomms that are watching, but also your future classmates, and some of them are crazy. If you hear weird rumors about things people claim other applicants have or have not done,…
…and over again. Third, and this is especially true for splitters… back to essays. Your essays should explain your weaknesses, yes… but don’t get stuck on that. What is most crucial is highlighting and building a strength. You’re selling yourself, your story, your perspective. And that stuff is valuable. Law schools…
…compelling, which is especially important if you are a splitter like me. Instead of blanketing the T14, target schools at which you might be a particularly good fit. Shout out to ASU, Utah, and of course, Michigan. My experience with each of their admissions offices was exceptional. I didn’t pursue any of the…

here to give hope to reverse-splitters 🥰 dont listen to reddit - application materials > lsat score!! I was told by pre-law advisors/reddit to not even bother applying to half the schools i applied to, and I ended up receiving 2 T-14 full-tuition scholarships this past cycle let the admissions process be a personal…
I’ll come back and put my “words of wisdom” for all the non-trad splitters looking for data points. 11/25/2025
Super splitters rise up(｡–｡ )人( ｡–｡)
…overcome mediocre softs, or at least not in 2024. Being a splitter didn’t help either, but I’ve seen enough people with my stats get better outcomes than me to say that it wouldn’t have screwed me on its own. Also, I’m pretty sure I might be the only person on this site to fail to get my GULC scholarship raised, let…
…to better guide your process, especially if you are a STEM splitter. If I were to re-do this process, I would apply to all T14. I wrote a trauma-based grade addendum that provided context to my GPA. I also wrote a short C&F regarding a possession of drug paraphernalia misdemeanor, which I thought FOR SURE would be a…
…statements were my diversity statement *reverse super splitter for all applications (except ASU)
…& optional essays mean** EVERYTHING *if you’re a splitter. Applied to alma mater *(UF) - given acceptance and full ride scholarship! If you’re even halfway considering your undergrad institution - APPLY
Splitter who bombed their undergrad GPA. Computer Science Major might’ve helped me but if there’s one thing I’ve learned. It is that the LSAT was my saving grace (◕︵◕)
…law (4+ years’ experience as a paralegal). Reverse splitter with C&F issues, misdemeanor, >10 years ago. Other softs: university assistantship, honors thesis, honors college peer mentor, honors college dean’s student advisory board, immigration-related volunteering. ADMG; we’re all in this together. DM if you want…
…in places where she would also want to live. As a super splitter, it is important to apply as broadly as possible. ** I probably should not have so hastily withdrawn from my WLs. I did it immediately assuming 1) I would get at least a couple pennies from UVA or Penn and 2) I would get nothing off of the WL from the…
This profile is here to allow other black male super splitters to be aware of the possibilities given your stats. Just know that people will always diminish your accomplishments but you are still amazing! Shoutout Nsqui for the full recap format and cryptanon for putting this whole site together <3.

…non T14 T20 schools were not too friendly to reverse splitters this year due to intense focus on setting LSAT medians above 170. this could change but who knows try to interact with schools before and after you apply. go to the lsac forum and chat with adcomms. meet with them to ask questions about the school before…
