How many law schools are there? I know for vet school we had the Mcat then switched to the GRE-both were stupid tests that don't reflect a darn thing in my opinion. Is the LSAT the same way?
To me, all the LSAT tested was the ability to analyze problems quickly and the ability to gather information from reading quickly. I do see some relevance to law school, because you need to be able to do both of these things, but generally, the test doesn't prove anything. The LSAT is definetly more important than gpa. I know a kid who had a 2.5, but had a 171 on his test and got into Georgetown. There are somewhere around 200 U.S. law schools, plus something like 20 in Canada.
