Is Cornell Really Considered Elite? Forum

[Barack O'Drama]

OP,

If you are looking for prestige as a value try NYLS. Someone may mistake it for NYU.

Jokes aside, I know someone who had a pretty successful career because of this.

No way! Well good for whoever it has aided.

I would suspect that the big law numbers are significantly higher than top 20% or top 30%.

I'm sorry I'm a little confused? Do you mean that you can be ranked lower and still get big law, or that you need a higher class rank?

Having been around for 3.5 years, frankly I'm surprised that you haven't once seen the biglaw numbers for Cornell.

That's pretty awesome. I like the automatic google search thing

Yeah, I agree. After 3.5 years on here I should know or at least how to find the stats. I never really took an interest in Cornell until I visited and realized I really liked the feel. Also, I am gunning for big law and trying to avoid going to school in NYC. It seems like Cornell may be a good choice for me. If I don't get H I can see Cornell will be high on my list of choices.
Thanks again

As a future Georgetown graduate, I can definitively say that Georgetown is far better than Cornell at everything, unless your goal is to get a job, in which case Cornell is probably better.

I have a completely irrational, deep-seeded, unnecessary, undying hatred for Cornell and all things related to it so no it's not elite.

Would you personally be impressed if someone told you they went to Cornell Law?

This scene was quoted earlier ITT; it deserves watching by anyone pondering the question in your thread title:

The post-NY to 180 come down has truly resulted in a prolonged bout of historically awful posting and topic creation.
