How hard is it to get accepted to Yale's Law School?

Question

I am currently in high school and I want to know how to prepare for Yale Law School. I want to be extra prepared. Thank You for all of your comments!

Answer 1

Go to the best university that you can get into.

Get straight As.

Get near perfect scores on the LSAT.

If you do that, you will be qualified for Yale Law.  You may not get in, because Yale rejects several qualified applicants for every one they accept.  However, if qualified, you will certainly get into some good law school.

Answer 2

Well you need to be preparing for regular college first...yale law school is a graduate school, where you go after you get a masters.  

And it's very very very very difficult.  Even people with 4.0s could worry about getting in.  They are immensely selective.  You need an excellent score on your LSATs, you'll need to be very actively involved in your university.

Remember, it's a graduate school, so do as many sports, extra curricular, volunteer activities and AP/IB classes as you can, then get into a really good school. Perhaps Yale's undergraduate school.

Answer 3

Hard. The median undergraduate GPA is a 3.89, and the median LSAT is 173. So you really need a fabulous GPA in college and a good score on the LSATs

Answer 4

Alumni!
