Yeah, I'm sure your bf wouldn't mind.

Ole Miss (Sticker: lmao)

On a bunch of waitlists too including: W&L, W&M, Wisconsin, Tulane...

goals?

I am open to living just about anywhere. I want to make a comfortable living. I'm interested in business/corporate law, environmental law, entertainment law, IP. I'm sure I'll have a better idea once I actually start LS

Iowa (in-state tuition)
Illinois ($30k with OOS tuition)

Don't mind the Midwest as long as it's a larger city.
Not committed to the Chicago market specifically but not against it either if that's how it ends up.
Thinking St. Louis after graduation; open to change
Interested in PI/gov't work; open to change

If you want St Louis, what happened to WUSTL?

If you want Chicago, UIUC,.

WUSTL = rejected. Predictable but still sucks.
Chicago isn't necessary but not wholly undesirable.

Honestly, at that point it comes down to where you feel more comfortable and which city will provide the quality of life that will lead you to a greater chance of success.

Ignore the $30k difference in debt?

Vanderbilt w/ $$

There's also Georgetown (probably at sticker, but with awesome LRAP for my government focus), but that one's not due until May. I'm trying to focus on the Cornell vs. Vandy question for now, and it's mostly coming down to intangibles. They're such completely different environments.

Yeah, $30K isn't worth the happiness/ ability to do well that is more important.
If your ambivalent between the two schools, then consider the $30k difference more.

I appreciate the advice but I'm not sure why retaking would be entirely beneficial for me. I'm in the 92nd percentile and pretty happy with my options. was just looking to see what others thought. I can't imagine waiting another year to start either

Assuming Vandy is more money and less COL, I vote nice weather/less suicides.

I have to believe the happiness quotient is much higher in Nashville.

Where do you want to practice?

If I end up in government, DC. If I end up changing my mind and going into private practice, I have no preference on location.

Thanks for not advising i kill myself. Oh, this site.

Shoot, that's tough. With the looseness of your goals, I would narrow it down to a small handful of schools on the reputable/debt count, and then choose based on where you feel most comfortable. Off the top of my head, Wake, Florida, and Florida St. all seem like reasonable choices.

Columbia no matter what.
