Hey guys, I'm a senior and I'm leaning towards applying ED I to UChicago. I really like the school (I went there for a summer session and loved it), and I'm also fine with the rigor and work. However, the one thing that concerns me is law school placement from the grade deflation, as I've always seen myself going to law school after college. Most top law schools want to see at 3.8+, which I've heard is 'impossible' at Uchic. Even if they are aware of Uchicago's rigor and compare UC applicants with each other, wouldn't that create a pretty cutthroat and competitive atmosphere? While I would like to not worry about GPA stuff and focus on learning, it's a valid concern that has been on my mind for a while.
