I find it hilarious that every year people fall for the BS hoaxes. Look at the LSAC's numbers. Compare IU, with say GW. They aren't even close.GW 75% GPA: 3.86IU: 3.6725% GPAGW: 3.40IU: 3.0375% LSAT:GW: 168IU: 16525% LSAT:GW: 165IU: 158Keep dreaming. IU is not going to jump to 23, GW is not going to jump to 28 nor are half those other moves ever going to happen.after reading this guy's comments i felt like i had to post something. I go to IU and the dean of our school confirmed that the rankings are correct. who's the moron now? the look on your face when you actually see the new rankings is going to be priceless. haha.

Well he's had it in for me ever since I kinda ran over his dog... Well, replace the word "kinda" with "repeatedly" and the word "dog" with "son."

I'm a 2L at Ga State Univ COL and we got an email today from the Dean in which he stated the US News rankings are released, and touted GSU's rise to 65 from 77.I think this ranking matches the one onhttp://lawprofessors.typepad.com/adjunctprofs/2009/04/us-news-2010-law-school-ratings-leaked-.html
