If you want big law, I'd take NYU full.

Yale man, great LRAP program to make up for loss of scholarship.

Depends on what you want to do with your JD...

I'd say unless you really want to to do a "yale-dominant" activity such academia, go for nyu. Debt is real. And scary.

Yale. I actually know someone who made the opposite choice. She ended graduating near the top from NYU and landed a great clerkship. But even a few years post-graduation, she still doesn't seem sure she made the right choice.

Thank you to the people who posted substantive advice. I have not been able to get a lot of advice from other pre-law friends because they turn green with jealousy. However, please include WHY you would choose one school over another and refrain from one word answers or answers with little or no reasoning. Thank you.

I guess it depends on how debt averse you are.

We need to know what you want to do, and if there are any catches to the money at NYU.

If your aspirations aren't particularly lofty, nyu--though the choice isn't free from doubt. If you are serious about academia, yale.

Apparently I'm not the only one who doesn't read the thread sometimes before posting... There was a confirmation link showing this is a (very likely anti-semitic) flame...

How obnoxious. This should prob be reported to a mod so the posters IP address can be determined and the guy permanently banned.

legalease9 · Post by **legalease9** » Wed Jul 21, 2010 9:47 pm

Yep, this is a flame, and a rather offensive one at that. Time for a banhammer.

I wish we weren't gullible, like you. You're the coolest!1!111!!!!

Okay, first of all, who the fuck are you?

Second: The ban hammer has already been brought down on this piss poor attempt at self-amusement / less-than-subtle anti-semitic trolling, so what the fuck are you doing hashing out your hurt feelings ITT? If you want to give me shit about a flippant comment, do it in a PM.

Third: Anyone who begins a thread bitching about having to choose between Yale and a full ride to NYU ought to be ridiculed until they figure out why people don't like them. The OP's second post was an obvious bait. You posted before that, so whatever. I have no idea why mouth-breathing social retards such as the OP get pleasure in this shit, but they do. And it's just kind of pathetic that people around here would give the time of day to someone bitching about Yale/NYU$$$.

Finally, fucking right I'm the coolest. Don't forget it. Now GTFO and let this thread die.

I hope he figures out that "semi-serious" is akin to "half-joking". The whole point of my initial post was that it should have been picked up on sooner or that someone should have given OP more shit. ...That's all I meant. Honest. I rllly lyke u guyz.
