Where's the link to last year's rank? ASU seems to have jumped a bunch? Up to 26 now.

[JusticeHarlan]

does anyone foresee them hittin t-14?

If they do, it WON'T FUCKING MATTER FOR SHIT

Nah bro, Texas hit T14 last year, changed everything.

[Incubateus]

ASU? What a jump. W&L with a come back? Brett Twitty is amazing. This blows March Madness away.

Does this mean anything? Will some firms now not come to schools that were in top25 in the past but now are out? Seems unlikely, but I have heard of firms having separate cutoffs depending on USNWR rankings and will this mean that some schools will be held to a higher standard? (i.e. BC/BU more specifically)

[Flash]

Can anyone with a pay account post the data?

Who the fuck actually ponies up money for that shit?

You could get a free year at some point.

Dubious.

[071816]

weird that so many relatively shitty schools are above BU/BC

These rankings seem pretty fucked.

[Arbiter213]

So... any suicides over at Cornell yet?

Give us time.

Also, all the "it's t12 now" trolling is stupid. I'll miss the t13 stuff but at least that made sense. Still the exact same 14 as it always has been.

Can someone post the employment data?

U Wash higher than WUSTL isn't really that crazy. The midwest legal market is both saturated and still suffering from the recession, while U Washington has home school advantage in a city with one of the strongest economies in the country. I mean who is UW really competing with outside of the California schools and the occassionally T14 drifter?

Edit: To some extent, these rankings are going to map to the larger economic and demographic trends the country experiences. Given that Arizona keeps growing at a faster pace than most of the country, its also not surprising that ASU/Arizona keep improving. (Though 26 does seem inflated).

[HellOnHeels]

Can someone post the employment data?

Also interested in this (maryland specifically)

[JusticeHarlan]

Can someone post the employment data?

Employed at 9 months is available for free, just click on the school.

Edit: my bad, they have at graduation rates for each school, not 9 months out.

Create mega-data poast?

[DaftAndDirect]

Argh. Not that the Mich drop matters that much. But it does.

[splittinghairs]

So whos in charge of updating on TLS front page?

Also, its just a suggestion but, dont you think the front page should have the Medians listed for all the schools rather than just 25-75 percentile.
