Cornell and NYU to accept GRE

I’m not sure this has been posted, but I think it’s indicative of more law schools getting on board the GRE train over the next few cycles.

Will be pretty interested to see how this might affect rankings. Once a significant number of students are admitted with GRE I assume US News will have to start accounting for that in some way.

It surely will. I think it will allow students to take the test they are the strongest at, which, at least in theory, should raise median LSAT scores as top contenders cherry pick which test they'll do better on in terms of percentile.
