Is Cornell really that difficult?

Post by username99 » Mon Nov 01, 2010 12:08 pm

I've heard this from a number of people - is Cornell really a lot harder than other comparable schools? Of course every law school is difficult - it's law school! But I've heard from a few folks that the coursework at Cornell is particularly difficult. Anyone have any insight?

Right - and I'm there. I'm not asking about difficulty getting in - I mean is it much harder than other schools once you're there?

The median of LSAT should reflect the average capabilities of their students and your grades depend on your performance in comparison to your classmates, so by pointing out their low LSAT median DF is implying that it can't be that difficult to get good grades there.

Well it being easier is only to your benefit. It still places decently.
