Welcome back to Ahead of the Curve. I’m Karen Sloan, legal education editor at Law.com, and I’ll be your host for this weekly look at innovation and notable developments in legal education.

This week, I’m checking in on an ongoing project by researchers at AccessLex Institute who are trying to determine whether LSAT scores and other factors can predict who will pass the bar exam. And next, Law School Transparency is looking for new board members, which is a great opportunity for people to help improve access to legal education.
