Any correlation between gpa and lsat score?

<p>I am hearing from several pre-law advisors that they have seen students with 3.9 gpa's get in the 140's on the lsat.
I haven't taken the lsat yet, but have a 3.9 so far at cornell (arts and sciences).
Has anyone here done poorly on the lsat despite a high gpa?
I have heard of low gpa's with high lsat score (from those who slacked off in college, but were smart)
I can't fathom that someone with a high gpa can do poorly on the lsat. I am hoping to get at least in the mid-160's, but am getting more and more worried.</p>

<p>Well, aren’t some students enrolled in less than competitive programs? I mean, someone who is successful in a criminal justice program at tier three school may not necessarily preform on the same level as someone with 3.9 at Cornell.</p>

<p>High GPAs aren’t equivalent between schools and, therefore, aren’t necessarily a good predictor of LSAT score.</p>

<p>Yes, that is true as there are a lot of schools that have grade inflation, so I don’t know how accurate that would be as a predictor.</p>

<p>Certainly a High Lsat score is often coupled with a high gpa; however high gpas, which are far more common than high lsat scores, are not themselves very predictive of lsat performance.</p>
