"Chart 3 shows the relation between SAT scores and admission rates for Hispanics and Asians. For both schools (NC State and UVA), the patterns are more similar to the white student rates shown in Chart 2. The probability of admission for Asian students is almost identical to white rates for each SAT category, while the probabilities are somewhat higher for Hispanic students. But the differences are on the order of 10% in each category rather than the 50% advantage shown for black students at UVA.

Chart 4 shows the relation between admission and LSAT scores at W&M Law school. Black students have a substantial advantage over all other groups in the LSAT score range 153 to 162, which encompasses nearly half of all white applicants. Black applicants in this range have better than a 50% chance of admission compared to less than 10% for white students. The average LSAT score for W&M admissions is 165; the average for black admissions is 156."

I'm thinking ... if unqualified students are admitted to law schools, and therefore don't graduate or don't pass the bar exams ... doesn't that mean that we'll have fewer lawyers than we would otherwise? I think I like this outcome!

Too bad they didn't break this down by gender as well. I suspect the probability of being admitted to any of these schools approaches unity for black females.
