dang, was hoping nobody would notice

Cooley cheats their own rankings by putting all the campuses together:
"• #1 in JD Minority Enrollment
• #1 in First-Year Minority Enrollment
• #1 in Total Enrollment
• #1 in First-year Matriculants"

The moment you turned down those schools, you began a lifetime of rationalization. Exhibit 1, "those 3000 people must ALL be douchebags."

And you are continuing a lifetime of elitism. Exhibit 1: "whatever number of people got into a T14 but chose to go elsewhere for scholarships/quality of life must ALL be intellectually inferior people who have to rationalize their poor choices."

actually, of the two of us, only you make generalizations about large groups of people. I am only referring to you.

OK. I will remove all hyperbole. I am not flaming right now, I am not trolling right now, I am attempting to be civil because I feel that people with law school experience are the only ones on this site who make it worthwhile to visit. Ergo, I feel that our discourse should rise above bickering.

I assume you attend Columbia based on our avatar. I have nothing against any of the schools in the T14, and I have nothing against anyone who attends them (except for some of the assholes I've met - this does not mean that I think they're all assholes.)

I just get the impression that the higher you go in the rankings, the more intense people at the school are. There are a grocery list of implications behind that statement. It makes perfect sense why people would want to attend the highest ranked school they can get into. There are other considerations as well. That's all.

oddly enough, top schools have lower average hours of study per day than lower ranked schools

I'd be interested to see the statistics. It certainly wouldn't surprise me.

I have a buddy at Yale. He said 1L was boring.

I'd guess it is probably because the lower down you go the rankings, the more dire the employment prospects if you don't end up at the top of your class.

This is true. Also true, the lower you go, the more you find genuinely intelligent people who are apathetic/would rather blaze up and play XBox than finish their memo.

I agree, bickering over. And as people above have mentioned, I was actually shocked at the relatively relaxed atmosphere here. I definitely have heard more war stories from schools outside of the t14 where everyone is competing for a small handful of high paying/high profile jobs. There are certainly intense people everywhere though and the t14 is no exception

If Marshall Eriksen enjoyed his time at CLS, it must not be too bad.

I keep getting this impression that every single person in the T14 the kind of gigantic douchebags who cares about arbitrary categories of prestige, and that the quality of life improves dramatically in this little zone right outside of the walled garden, but you know, not too far outside of the walled garden.

It's not arbitrary. We saw you coming and slammed the goddamned garden gate.

You're cute when you prove a point I was throwing out just to kick around. I got into several T10 schools.

It's really not fair to stereotype based on my example; I was an ass long before the thought of attending law school ever crossed my mind.

As was I, I think it's a prerequisite to doing well in law school.

I will reference my comment to Kwais. I started like a troll, but I'm backing off - I don't want to flame anymore.
