seeing so many rebuttals focused on women having higher uGPAs when studies have shown there exists a systemic grading/punishment bias in favor of women from Kindergarten all the way to Undergrad

NemoPropheta

12:29

I think all public schools have it, and a lot of schools will require you to either purchase it through them or prove you have equivalent coverage elsewhere

@NemoPropheta: that post sucked and complete disrespect to the deans

eggan

13:14

deans are trained to act without bias. the point that everyone forgot. if women have better uGPAs and LSATs, what, do you want men to be considered with lower test scores? isnt that just DEI ?

eggan

13:15

and its the same people complaining about DEI too lmao

NemoPropheta

13:20

Did you read the post? Its about the underrepresentation of men in ratio with their share of top LSAT scores. Men make up a great percentage of 170+ scorers than women

NemoPropheta

13:20

By a significant margin too

NemoPropheta

13:21

Also being trained to act without bias does not mean they do not act with bias. Most biases are unconscious and evolutionary in origin

NemoPropheta

13:22

@eggan: You sure you’re cut out for law school?

AcousticStrongLynx

13:23

@NemoPropheta: no need to be rude

NemoPropheta

13:24

Just being honest, if you can’t read properly and can’t form a good argument, you may not do well in law school
