The reason for Bush's rejection by Univ of Texas Law School has never been made public. But it's a pretty good bet that it was because he was a convicted felon at the time or because he did poorly on the Law School Admissions Test, which is a test of IQ in a legal format; or both. It makes one wonder if his current disrespect for the law is rooted in that rejection. Or if he simply has an attitude about law because of that rejection in his youth.

To Shilo: The LSAT is excepted by MENSA-a score of around 650 or above qualifies. They believe it is an IQ test and if anyone would know, it is they.

Damien is correct in that the scoring format has changed since I took the test. However, Mensa does accept LSAT scores as aptitude test acceptable for membership.

And I do not suggest that it an all inconclusive measurement of abililty-only that it measures IQ, which is an ingredient in one's potential.

People like Bush - top of the rich elite - grow up knowing they are above the law - it has never applied for them it is a tool they use to keep the rest of us under the boot.
His criminal behaviour is rooted in this - except he is above the law so is he really a criminal? Certainly internationally and certainly he is a murderer and a thief but that doesn't apply in the states because a) he's amazingly wealthy and b) because he is president and of course c) his daddy was president too.

You're quote of a 650 score on the LSAT is not true. The LSAT ranges from 120-180 with a 150 median. I scored a 154 which put at the top 34% range of all test takers, yet I am in the top 3% of my law school. It is not a fair description of how you will do in law school, nor is it a fair indicator of ability. It's just simply not that simple.

as an occasion, the college of Texas' investment administration company (UTIMCO) invests $a million.7 billion of state money. maximum of this comes from salary from oil discovered on Texas state land. Bush's cronies dominate this board, and in return investment money controlled via those very cronies or their acquaintances have won almost a 0.33 -- $457 million -- of that huge investment pool. There is additionally extra, yet this imprecise team -- created under Bush -- cloaks its operations in a thick veil of secrecy.

the answer to your question is that he follows the law therefore it makes no sense as you do as well.
