According to the National Jurist, students of color now make up 32% of respondents, up from 17% in 2004. Women account for 60% of law students, compared to 51% in 2004, while LGBTQ+ representation has grown from 4% in 2009 to 17% today. The report also found that over the past two decades, roughly 80% of law students have consistently rated their overall law school experience as good or excellent.
