Have you seen their 509? They throw out money in ways that other schools don't (except Illinois whose employment numbers I'm curious to see). Especially for splitters and reverse splitters.starry eyed wrote:fordham and GW classs sizes have been on the decrease... is it a coincidence that they are loathed on TLS?
how the hell is WUSTL, in St louis nonetheless, getting 0L's to attend in droves?
I think northwestern will since 10 % of class is JD-MBA. Can't see over 67 %. NU posts full employment data with salary though so if something like 70 % is making > 100K then that's good enough.starry eyed wrote:to be fair, so was the assault on michigan but it became real realqueerqueg wrote:this 'assault' seems fabricatedzacharus85 wrote:What's wrong with UVA?

i have a feeling UVA is gonna have one of the bottom 3 BL+FC rates and they need to be held accountable

This site is living proof that weird fat people get big law, we already knew that wasn't dispositivestarry eyed wrote:if 80% of the class gets biglaw, it's probably not just the top 80% getting it. Seems like if you wanted biglaw and are not fat and weird, you got it.

How is this surprising. It may have been difficult to get BigLaw from T14s back in 2009-11, but its ridiculously easy now. At Chicago I literally don't know of a single person who wanted Big/Midlaw and struck out, and our BigLaw/Market #s for last years 2Ls were almost 85%.rpupkin wrote:Superstaranonymous wrote:Possibly anecdotal but I do know of two individuals that were both bottom third 1Ls at Cornell and got 1L SAs.

Bad grades? Bad interviewers? Too fat? All three?Mal Reynolds wrote:I know four Chicago students who struck out. Those are just the ones I've heard about.

There are far more egregious offenders.

I am not surprised. I am just in a state of shock as I struggle to adjust to a new world order. Yale and Harvard are in decline. Meanwhile, Cornell is ascendent—a place with a "heavyweight reputation" where even below-median 1Ls land V15 SAs. What's next? V10? V5?bearsfan23 wrote:rpupkin wrote:How is this surprising.
