Several people who "are Stone" at CLS are reporting getting no offers out of OCI on TLS. What is "Stone"?

isn't it conferred on a semester basis? i'm pretty sure they're allowed to put stone on their resume if they ever had a semester over 3.4.

I doubt it. that basically assumes that the group who got stone first semester of 1L does not overlap at all with the group that got it second semester. probably more like 45-50%.

edit: it's an even less impressive credential when you consider that it's used as a graduation honor. as in, the percentage of CLS students that managed 3.4 in ANY semester of ls probably does approach 70%.

Stone is like "you did slightly better than median this semester."

Kent is like top 2-5% in a given semester.

Kent-->auto admit for jerb

No stone-->ding

Stone-->in the running

to sweep away the flamers/MFEs:

stone = min 3.410 after averaging all your classes during any academic year

this ends up being about top 1/3 in 1L and about 40% in 2L/3L

ok, but tbf since you only have to do it in one of three years to qualify it's probably like 60% of students who qualify.

What are your thoughts on TLS reports that people with Stone are getting shut out at OCI? (One guy even said "High Stone").

These faggots at TLS are even worse aspies than the trolls around here from back in the day (Fish, Stabby, etc.). It's no wonder they struck out.

per BCG: "A Stone Scholar is awarded in recognition of superior academic achievement. Stone requires an earned average significantly better than B+ and is generally awarded to 35 percent of the class (as low as 29 percent

of 1Ls and as high as 45 percent of 3Ls)."
