Which he thinks shows that religion and classics students do better at the LSAT than, say, specialized Biology students.  Of course, it shows the exact opposite - that specialized biology students do better at the LSAT compared to religion students.  DESPITE HAVING LOWER UGPA's.  In fact, the low LSAT average for religionmajors conditioned on their GPA is probably indicative of grade inflation for religion majors.

Those students who chose to specialize in a particular kind of Biology (re: interested students) do better than their GPA would indicate on the LSAT.

EDIT: Actually, BOTH regular biology majors AND specialized biology majors do better than their GPA should indicate on the LSAT.  Religion majors?  Not so much.

Also:

BIOLOGY, SPECIALIZATION    155.8
CHEMISTRY                      152.1
BIOLOGY                              149.
LAW                      147.6
PRE-LAW                      147.1
ACCOUNTING                      148.3


Does this disqualify Barry, the CPA/Lawyer from rational discussion?

No, of course not.

Does Barry's being---Barry disqualify him from rational discussion?
