Perspective students really ought to take note of any law schools that increase numbers in this market. It is the clearest demonstration that they do not give a fuck at all about their students outcomes.

Not saying that other schools necessarily do, but at least they can pretend their reduction in class size is a response to the market conditions and not maintaining LSATs.

Even worse when you increase class sizes and the LSAT median plummets.

With Temple actually improving their GPA/LSAT combo, prospective students should definitely be looking there before Nova, in my opinion. Temple has been actually trying to become a solid #2 in Philly while the other schools havent really cared.

Good point, but remember that a couple schools maintained class size and medians, either because they're benefitting from a huge ratings jump (ASU) or they don't give a fuck about numbers anyway (Berkeley). It's the schools like Nova and American that take a beating to their medians while maintaining class size that really have no concern for their students' employment prospects.

Any school increasing class size and dropping medians is a joke school. Nova especially...they lied about their medians and were sanctioned by the ABA...what, just a year ago? They had to link to their official sanction letter on their website.
