This is a law school class rank calculator that uses publicly available data to predict law school class rank based on LSAT and undergraduate GPA. The calculator itself is fairly accurate for LSATs and GPAs that are between the 25th and 75th percentiles for each school. Its accuracy decreases for very low or very high LSATs or GPAs for a particular school.
Although the calculator itself is fairly accurate within those ranges, its results demonstrate that law school class rank is not at all predetermined based on LSAT and undergraduate GPA. Students with relatively low LSATs and GPAs at a particular school still have a decent shot at the top third of the class, and those with relatively high LSATs and GPAs still have a decent shot at the bottom third of the class. In other words, there is much more to law school success than high predictors.
This calculator is a work in progress and I expect to update and improve it as more information becomes available to me. Comments are welcome!
NOTE: If your predictors cause an error, it is because they are too far outside the range for the relevant school to be reliable. If you want to see the results anyway, here is an “unlocked” version of the calculator.
