LSDAS Admission Indexes

[ElizaB]

I was checking out my Transcript Documents on my LSDAS account the other day and noticed that there was a PDF file on the page titled Admission Index.  When I opened it, it was a list of all of the admission indexes for all of the law schools.  Does anyone know if this is a generic file on everyone's account or are the admission indexes that are listed specifically for my undergraduate university?

I apologize in advance is someone has already answered this question on another thread.  I looked but couldn't find one that discussed it.

these are generic.  schools don't publish the machinations they put each school through.

Thanks!

Now I have another question.  I have heard that schools actually apply a multiplier to your GPA based on your undergrad. university.  I have also heard that they just take into "consideration" the quality of the school that you went and the difficulty of your course work but don't actually apply a multiplier based on your school.  Do you know if either of these statements are true or false?

No one here knows with certainty.  Schools don't like for anyone to find that information.

At some time in the past, Berkeley used a scale to rank whether GPAs were worth more or less than face value (not exactly a multiplier).  But then it got leaked and published, then there was an uproar by those schools that were lower on the list.  You'll never get a straight answer anymore.

Thanks for the info.
