FAQ
How many ABA-accredited law schools does this cover?
All 196 ABA-accredited law schools that filed a 2025 Standard 509 Information Report, the same disclosure every accredited school files each year.
Where does the data come from?
The ABA Standard 509 Information Reports, 2015 to 2025, pulled directly from each school's own filing and checked against the live PDFs for a spot-check sample.
What does the LSAT 50th percentile column mean?
It's the median LSAT of the admitted class: half the class scored above that number, half below. It's the single best number for sizing up your odds fast.
How current is this data?
Admissions and cost figures are the 2025 filing year (2024 for a small number of schools with no 2025 tuition on file yet). Employment and bar-passage figures lag a year for most schools because the ABA hasn't published 2025 outcomes for anyone outside the T14 yet, and every page states which class year its outcomes numbers cover.
