Hey 1Ls,

How is life of the law? Any news on class size/medians?

Can't remember all of it, but I think LSAT was 162/167/168 and the class size is 204. Don't remember the gpa stuff

I know 25th for GPA was exactly 3.500. I think 75th was like 3.8something? Don't remember the median. Agree with Abyss on the LSAT and size stats.

Is the class size really 204?? That would be a substantial increase from last year. Could it be that number includes llms?

It's just that big of a class.

Yeah there's 50+ LLMs, at least. 204 JD. I think it's a 14 percent increase from last year, and they raised the lsat median by one point.

What does this mean? I'm seriously asking you big timer tlsers. Is our ranking gonna go up or is it favorable for that??

There were 162 students in last year's class (162 students: http://law.vanderbilt.edu/prospective-s ... rofile.php). Going up to 204 is a 26% increase.

Yikes

hmm. wonder if anyone else can corroborate seeing 14 percent on the slide show? something is strange. feel like i would've remembered it being 26.

I think total applicants to Vandy was up 14%.

If the class size is at 204, and they've increased the LSAT median, then that seems pretty impressive. Maybe more students went Vandy instead of WUSTL/GULC this year?

.

The rise might also have to do with a better pool of applicants.

Regardless, good news for Vandy and kudos to the admissions dept (who checks TLS you might want to know)

Yeah. I mean they improved their lsat. Can't be a bad thing lol.
And lemme just say for future applicants sake, the vibe here in Nashville is amazing. Specifically at vandy. Things are cool, people are COOL. This was a great decision, everyone I've spoke to says so
