Background - The ABA made a finding that Cooley violated certain admissions requirements, Cooley filed for a TRO/PI against the ABA to prevent them from releasing the findings (which had already been released). http://www.xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=3800335&mc=6&forum_id=2

The ABA came back saying our findings were valid, etc. Cooley's reply brief compares the ABA to the proverbial cat pushing a cup off a table: "But like a cat who looks you in the eye while he pushes a cup off a table, [the] ABA decided to publish the decision anyway, and now claims that the injury it caused means the court will no longer be able to fashion Cooley a remedy..."

"Cooley’s median GPA is 2.90, and the median LSAT score is 141,"

Cooley's *median* LSAT score is in the FIFTEENTH percentile. You can score bottom quartile and then go style all over these retards

who gives a shit about admissions requirements? The ABA needs to grow some balls and start revoking accreditation based solely on the fact that these are TTT for profit diploma mills that leave students in crippling debt with low likelihood of even passing the bar and virtually no job prospects if they do. The AMA would never allow med schools like this to exists

""Cooley’s median GPA is 2.90, and the median LSAT score is 141 . . ."

This is still crazy to me. The LSAT is 100 questions, all A-E. 140 is about 40 questions right. A random guessing strategy would yield 20 "right" answers on average, and given the number of test takers a fair bit of variance, meaning that the median Cooley student only improved on a random guessing strategy by 20 questions. And half of them did worse than that. There must be at least a few who were, essentially, random guessers but got "lucky" and scored a 135 or so that they absolutely could not replicate.

Student loans have been a disaster.

“Nothing that I could say about Thomas Cooley will lower their reputation further than their decision to enroll over 140 students with LSAT scores in the 130s in 2017. I’m not the one who determined that their admission practices violate accreditation standards, the ABA did. Thomas Cooley preys on the dreams of people who don’t realize how unlikely it is that they will be able to succeed in the legal profession.”
