LSAT 163 GPA 2.67 2025–26 cycle

Admitted to University of Kansas

…school list, adding more “safeties” (though, as a splitter, I know there’s never truly such a thing) and prioritizing schools where I was above the 75th percentile LSAT. Most importantly, my materials were stronger across the board. I made sure my letters of recommendation clearly reflected my “why” and helped tell…

LSAT 162 GPA 4.19 2025–26 cycle

Attending Texas A&M University

…For most of the schools I applied to, I was a reverse splitter. My results were sort of surprising: I got into accepted and rejected into schools across the board, and the patterns did not always make sense. This cycle, this past year, was LONG. I can still remember being a senior in college ready to graduate…

LSAT 163 GPA 2.94 2024–25 cycle

Attending Michigan State University

I applied very late in the cycle due to issues with my transcripts, and I would not reccomend that to anyone. Though I am a splitter, I have strong reasons as to why my GPA is so low.

LSAT 158 GPA 2.80 2020–21 cycle

Attending Villanova University

…they will get to know you. I think this can only benefit splitters like myself. I have some pretty solid softs, I’ve worked in federal government and have been in the military for the past 9 years. If you have experiences that you believe set you apart it’s important to emphasize that in your application. I…
