You're not taking into account NYU's downward trend. I'd put them as 6 and Chicago at 5.
Nope. You're wrong; I'm right.

Most of mine are 4/1.

Anyone think there will be notable changes? I'm pretty sure GW will make its way back into the low 20s, but I doubt anything else will happen.
I've heard UGA is going to tank.
Why do you say that? I'm not challenging you but I'm really curious about it!
Before I answer, let me ask a necessary question: where are you applying?

I have a big mouth. Before you know it, the NYU downward trend will leak onto other forums. I think it will have an impact on USNWR by the time we see rankings in April 2011.

It'll be interesting to see the employed at graduation vs 9 month employment rates as well as the income ranges and if those shift any rankings.
I agree. V also breaks the three way tie with d and n
And TLS never hears the end of it.

I'm curious to see what happens between UF and FSU. I hope UF can rise.

A post on March 28th last year linked to the new rankings, so I assume they came out by that date at the latest.

"Woo! My law school moved up a spot in the rankings!"

"Do you have a job?"

"No."

I'm just ready for a new set of inaccurate job data.

When are ppl going to realize that usnwr is completely independent of reality/hiring/life outcomes?


Proof? Go ask an IUB 2L if their freshly minted t25 label has brought them any more firms/offices at oci.

I applied to UGA, so I am curious also. What is your reasoning?

Kind of all over the place, but I did apply to UGA and if I got in I would strongly consider going there. Again, just curious about why you say this.

this would make a pretty good poll


which school has the most trolls

UVA, Chicago or ______

i still say Chicago....they blatantly move it 1-2 spots in all their lists for reasons unbeknownst to anyone

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
