:lol: I didn't get to bed until 2am left-coast time. My wife got up and looked at me dazed and I just told her "high-internet drama... them kids and their rankings", she smiled and went back to sleep.

Hey, for us, this is all high drama. Everybody who's anybody in the attorney/law school/internet world knows who OperaSoprano is now! :D

Good Evening Dr. Saprano! You raised yourself a fine young lady there. Be proud mom. You did your job well. :wink:

My dad has insomnia and at around 2:30 a.m. last night he walked into my room because he saw the light on, and he asked: "Don't you have to work tomorrow" I started telling him while i was still up, but before I was done with my story he had already walked out. No one in my family cares about TLS drama. **sighs**

Of course Alabama would move up in the rankings after I withdraw from them...to think I could have gone to a t-30 school, and now I'm hoping to get off a WL at a #35.

if you think you made a sincere mistake and really want to go, try talking to them. Explain your reasoning and renewed committment. They'll probably say no, but its worth a shot.

I can now officially confirm Opera's rankings :) I think we all trusted Opera, but in case there were any doubters, I got my copy of US News today (the standard magazine, not the separate ranking issue). It includes the basic ranking info, and confirms Opera's report of the rankings.

I went to a newsstand about a block away from my house in Brooklyn, and found the magazine this morning. I asked the guy at the register what day he had started selling the magazine. The reply: Thursday 16th. :?

I think I bought a different issue/edition than Opera's though. Mine doesn't have the salary listings on the back of the magazine and I think the cover is different. I tried looking for the cover picture Geoanthem posted to compare it but I think it was taken down.

I know this is not a popular subject on here, but does anyone have the T3 and T4 rankings...?

If so can you please post the link.

Thanks!

I had to take the images down, and I never had a chance to type them out. Is there a specific school you would like to know about?

Thanks in advance!

NYLS is a T3, and Suffolk did fall to T4. :shock:

I'd still pick Suffolk.

*stares at rankings*

FTR, Suffolk's LSAT range is the highest in the T4. Assessment scores don't seem to warrant this, either.

What happened?

Yeah, probably everywhere but Brooklyn Heights.
