<p>Of course, one would expect a representation breakdown similar to that in the above post even if there were no directly causal relationship between undergraduate schools and admissions chances at Yale Law: on average, students at highly ranked colleges earn much higher GPA’s and higher LSAT scores, and they are likelier to aim for top law schools. </p>
<p>In comparison to the importance of your LSAT score and GPA (especially the former), where you attend college (excepting, perhaps, Yale in this case) matters so little that the many other consideration factors for picking a school render it properly negligible.</p>
<p>I should also caution that, given the super-selective and subjective nature of Yale Law’s admissions, getting stuck on it is dangerous. Setting a goal for top law schools in general is perhaps a more realistic plan and one that should still motivate you sufficiently.</p>
