"What can you expect in mid-March? As in the past, we will have new rankings in the five largest professional graduate school disciplines: business, law,"

I would atleast like to peek at the rankings before I submit my deposit April 1 ... however meaningless they are.

How far in advance does it typically get leaked on TLS?

Agreed. US News should definitely calibrate its rankings release to precede deposit deadlines :mrgreen:

As much as I'd like to see this ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ as a WUSTL prospective, will it really mean much in the real world for hiring? Probably not.

Because the numbers are so bad they are just not releasing them this year.

Duke and NYU are the best bets to gain ground (both increased their LSAT medians by +1) and Berkeley (-1) is the best bet to lose some.

I want to see UGA move up, or at least stay at 28.
