So obviously what you need to do is to project how many times you'll get laid because of HLS over the next 3 years (because after that you'll be using your law firm's name, or just saying that you work at a prestigious law firm, to get laid) and multiply that number by the cost of a trip to Nevada or Thailand. If that number is more than $100k, then go to HLS.HLSorChicago wrote:Of course I didn't post my HLS acceptance to FB.

I have a douchey personality (can't you tell?) so I don't think it was some sort of placebo effect/illusory confidence boost; it was teh Harvard. As we speak, I am opening my FB to a bunch of hotties' (who have ignored me for years) flirty "congratulations" Facebook messages. Maybe the six figure debt is worth it; at least I won't have to fly to Nevada or Thailand with HLS!tskela wrote:In my experience, Chicago definitely has lay prestige based off of its UG. I'm pretty sure the entire top 10% of my high school class were targeting UChicago. It could just be the area I'm in, but everyone knows Chicago is prestigious.
Totally anecdotal, I realize. But I wouldn't worry about the lay prestige issue too much.
