However, any score below a school&#8217;s 25th percentile represents the lower threshold of their <a href=\"https:\/\/theentrypass.com\/library\/questions\/praxis-5002-reading-practice-questions\">typical admitted class<\/a>. For accredited law schools, this figure is rarely below 145.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Key insights into this variable benchmark include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The 25th Percentile is the Practical Floor:<\/strong>\u00a0Admissions data publishes the 25th-75th percentile range. A score at or below the 25th percentile (e.g., 155 for a school with a 155-162 range) is effectively the lowest LSAT score accepted for a typical applicant.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Holistic Exceptions Exist:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/LSAT\/comments\/11g880k\/anyone_here_went_to_law_school_with_a_lsat_score\/\">A profoundly compelling application<\/a>\u2014featuring an exceptional GPA, unique personal narrative, or significant professional achievement\u2014may lead a committee to accept the lowest LSAT score in an entering class, sometimes 3-5 points below their median.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>School Tier Dictates the Range:<\/strong>\u00a0While top-tier schools rarely accept scores below 170, some lower-tier schools may have a 25th percentile around 148-150.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, instead of seeking a single lowest LSAT score accepted, you should target a score at or above a specific school&#8217;s median. A score below a program&#8217;s 25th percentile significantly diminishes your chances, making it the functional minimum for a competitive application.
