Brooklyn Law ($$$) or Temple? Current student insight?

Post by Lawschoolbound1121 » Tue Mar 06, 2018 2:28 pm

Got into Temple and Brooklyn Law

Brooklyn Law full ride, Temple no scholarship.

Any insight into either school? (personal experience with either school, cut throat or not, ect.)

Please don't respond with a retake/reapply ect.

Thank you for your help!

I think the answer to this is really dependent on where you want to work; Philly or NYC.

Brooklyn is going to place better into NYC compared to Temple.
Temple is going to place better into Philly.

I think comparatively BigLaw in Philly is more likely from Temple then Biglaw in NYC would be from Brooklyn. (Top 10% is basically mandatory for Biglaw opportunities. I'm not sure what Temple is like.

Brooklyn is in a really nice area and the school itself is great. Law school by definition is competitive but I wouldn't say Brooklyn is cut throat, all the students are really down to earth. A full ride is never a bad idea, unless you have your heart set on practicing in Philly. If that is the case try to negotiate with Temple and get some money.

Hope this helps.
