calculating the index # 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago Karma: 0  
I noticed that some law schools use a certain index during their examination of applicants. Does anyone have the average indexes of law schools, or know where I can find a list with this information? Thank you.

this isn't for every school, but i think it has the formula for every school that chose to publish their index formula. the formula works by doing (LSAT*constant)(GPA*constant) + constant = index #.

plug in your numbers for your index number. then plug in a school's 25/50/75 numbers to see where you stand relative to those. hope this helps.

tuvok is right. the index score is calculated differently for each school. IA LS have a page on how to calculate. click on link below. the ISAC link above in tuvok's post has been canceled and therefore does not work.
