Anyone wish they understood UNC’s “hold” admission insanity?

They could easily bump their LSAT 2-3 points and probably coast into the t20 just based on their undergrads prestige.

That's not true. They'd have to substantially increase spending per student (which is a lot tougher with taxpayers' money than with a fancy private-school endowment) and/or improve their reputation ranking (which takes decades of excellence to budge). If juicing one's LSAT median were enough, WashU would be a T14.

And before you say they need to have like 70% instate - I don’t think that’s true for the law school. Only 57% of their last class were NC residents.

Also not true. Like most state schools they have institutional commitments to the people of North Carolina and would start getting difficult questions from trustees, donors, alumni and politicians if they made out-of-staters too much of the class.
