The following information provides statistics on the effect McDaniel has on graduating students and their LSAC Scores and admissions to law schools. In upcoming months, this information will be supplemented with profiles on lawyers who have graduated from McDaniel, highlighting the various types of law one can enter.
LSAT scores are out of 180. Only two percent get about 170.
The average number of law schools (applied to by our students) varies but appears to go up. One student applied to 15 schools last year. No one in the last ten years has applied to only one school.
I don’t have information on the majors of former students. I do know some but most if not all of that data in antidotal.
Number of students accepted refers to the number of student accepted to at least one law school.
The admitted students’ stats are only for undergraduates who applied in their senior year. The phrase current student refers to these students in the respective years.
