<p>I'm not so sure about that Malishka31, for example from Harvard law's website: <a href="http://www.law.harvard.edu/admissions/jd/colleges.php%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.law.harvard.edu/admissions/jd/colleges.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Undergraduate Institution # HLS JD Students
University of California - Berkeley 43
University of California - Los Angeles 41</p>

<p>It's so close I would say it doesn't matter one way or another. The key is to do whatever you can to get the higher LSAT and GPA. :)</p>

502

<p>I actually got into UCLA for Fall 2006. Wow. WOW.</p>

<p>I wish I had known that before Berkeley; I might've seriously given that some thought. Oh well -- spring Cal here I come!</p>

503

<p>uhm... isnt this thread for pending people? like me?</p>

504

<p>I <em>was</em> pending, IWANNATRANSFER. Now I am not. I was just updating.</p>

<p>Good luck to those still waiting!</p>

505

<p>could just be hearsay but I understand Berkeley has heavier grade deflation than UCLA. so in actuality, one might have a better chance at getting in a Havard or Yale law school going to UCLA....</p>

506

<p>just created my pin!! I am already in, right??</p>

507

<p>people who go to Law schools from UCB have their grades "adjusted" considering the fact that to get an "A" in UCB is bit harder than in UCLA</p>

508

<p>so people with 4.0 gpa at ucla may have their grades adjusted lower considering that it is a bit easier to get an "A" at ucla than at cal?</p>

509

<p>The point is that someone with 3.7 from UCB may get in while a 3.9ish student from UCLA get rejected</p>

510

<p>zheng were you able to create a pin yesterday?</p>

511

<p>No. Between UCLA and Cal the difference is so minimal there is not going to be any noticable "adjustment". I guess there could be an adjustment for some schools, but it would have to be a huge difference. (like a cal state and Cal). I am not sure what haybaxt is talking about. Talk to just about anyone in the law forums and they will tell you your undergrad does not matter unless its a huge leap. A lot of people go to "easier" undergrads because if they can get a higher GPA.. that will matter a lot more.</p>

<p>The LSAT matters the most in law school admissions anyway.</p>
