1) Visit both.
2) Choose the school that you like better.
3) Do well in your classes because you're not miserable.
4) Get a NYC biglaw job.
5) Remember your law school years fondly while you're trapped in an interior office of a midtown skyscraper at 2am on a Saturday night.

There is no objective reason to choose one over the other (although I suppose Boston's shitty weather is an objective fact).

Yeah...I'm no expert on NYC biglaw but go to the school you like better.

Who in the world besides an international student would stay on campus for Christmas?
