Maryland Law
Would you recommend this school with significant money for government/PI goals? As opposed to T25 or T14 for sticker

Re: Maryland Law
There is really no T25 distinction.
It depends. We need to know more. How much debt total at repayment, including cost of attendance?
I see your location says MD--are you from there and want to work there?
When you say gov't job, do you mean in MD or feds in DC?

Re: Maryland Law
MD is particularly bad when you weigh employment vs "ranking".
re: government, it doesn't place well at all. Just too much competition.
re: PI, Knew a top third MD bro who clerked and said that just as many if not more Baltimore grads end up doing PI. Ended up hanging his own shingle. It's rough for a Maryland Law grad out there. Goes quadruply for American so don't even think of that nonsense.
If you've got the numbers for Maryland with scholly: (3.6ish 163ish ?) you're a retake away from Splitter Friendly$/strong regional$$$$/GW$$$/GULC$.

Re: Maryland Law
OP's numbers are 166/3.4
I don't know any specifics about Maryland but if I were you, I wouldn't go there. Aim higher. I'm not saying paying sticker for other schools is smart either though. A few more LSAT points can really change your life so definitely consider a retake.

Re: Maryland Law
I applied because they gave me a fee waiver, but I kinda want my report fee back after reading more about it lol.

Re: Maryland Law
MD doesn't release scholarship (merit or need) info until u complete the FAFSA which is available in 2015. But in speaking with different people I'm anticipating some sort of scholarship plus in state so its a lot cheaper than higher ranked schools regardless.
Also retook the LSAT and got lower even with more effective/efficient studying so not really keen on going for round 3. Would much prefer to weigh my options and if I don't get any good options, study hard for the June one instead of trying to balance school and studying for December and then being out of retakes.
Also 3.4ish / 166.
