PLEASE LISTEN. If you can't get T14, Don't have connections

Post by pleaselisten » Fri Feb 19, 2010 6:57 pm

And you do not plan on being creative like opening your own law firm or do something else with your JD, THEN DO NOT GO TO LAW SCHOOL.

I'm going to a T2 school. Heard the same advice on here. I said to myself rankings don't matter. Its bogus.

You are likely going to end up with a few C's and B's. Or worse.


You will apply for summer internships and not understand why no one is caling you back.

The school i go to now is just making a profit from dumb clowns like me who assumed they would get in the top 10 percent through studying and hard work. I had one test that had mutiple choice questions stating what would Jesus believe we should do in this situation? In a property course.


There is no quality control. So basically if you finish out of the top 10 percent you won't get a good high paying law job.



People are walking around depressed that there decent grades are no better than the people who got C's.


The depression will kick in midway through your second semester. Then you will see everyone in your class on facebook. Not giving a damn.



Study hard for the LSAT and get to a T14. I thought it was just about prestige before. Law school is BULL CRAP.

Based on "I had one test that had mutiple choice questions stating what would Jesus believe we should do in this situation? In a property course." I would say Pepperdine.

Isn't Pepperdine T1?

I was going to guess Catholic U.

But H20 is right, could be Cornell :)

I'm not saying that you're wrong, but what if the job market rebounds in two or three years? I don't know how likely that is, but it's a distict possibility.
