@eyeofthetiger: No, no school is worth $450k just for law school, to me. But you do you, if that choice is yours to make, do what is best for you!

@Blumenkraft: According to the test creators (LSAC) nothing. However, people are taking the test, 3-5 times and therefore practicing and hence scoring much higher than in the past.
20:57
Hmmmmmmm. Okay
@eyeofthetiger: what type of law do you want to practice cus you only really practice corporate out of columbia.
20:58
Is there an analysis on the marginal returns of 170+ scores?
20:59
Regarding acceptance/scholarship rates^

I’d probably do corporate right out of law school tbh… but I’m assuming the diff between CLS and Mich when it comes to big law access is negligible anyways?
check law school transparency but I work for a CLS attorney right now and they would say columbia over michigan.
yeah cls national law firm 75% michigan 58%. Could make a difference and then a difference in quality of job. Hard to tell. If your dream is CLS I would probably take the debt and go there. Just gotta be certain you don't mind paying money back.
Same attorney though gave up a full ride at both NYU and Chicago.
said they regretted it.
but they also wanted to do PI.

Ahhh wait sorry but what would you say about like CLS vs a school like UVA/Penn? Is the gap closer there or is CLS still significantly better?
eyeofthetiger
21:07
@KnowledgeableProductiveMongrel: a full ride at Chicago oml
21:11
UVA and Penn are better than CLS
eyeofthetiger
21:12
oh?!! I stand corrected loll
Penn is the worst out of the three. CLS and UVA are much better. Idk would have to kook at stats again.
I pick off regions, clerkships, and corporate law.
21:38
Is it a bad idea to apply in January/Februaryish instead of a couple months earlier? If so, why
Depends on the stats but generally yeah. A lot of spots are taken.
22:09
Damnnnnnn. Good to know
22:10
Wait. Is it actually a game of seats left at that point
It all depends on the school and stats but the seats thing is true.
Not my proudest moment.
@KnowledgeableProductiveMongrel: r u all the other knowledgeable peeps that have been on lsd.law through time
Nah not at all lol
