Brooklyn vs Temple

Post by phillyinnewyork » Tue May 04, 2010 5:01 pm

Details:

No money from either school.

Im from Philly and all of my family is there, but I currently have a really good job in law enforcement in New York that could potentially lead to employment after law school.

Not sure where I want to live yet, but I have heard that unless you get $$ from Brooklyn, it is not worth it due to the debt one incurs. I could probably get in state at temple by my second year.

Currently, my office has four temple law school grads vs 20 Brooklyn grads.

According to the new rankings, both schools dropped a lot but Temple (72) dropped more than Brooklyn (67)

any other thoughts on either school?

Thanks

Would it be possible to talk to your office about your future employment? Could you go part-time and work at your office? Or, did you want to go full-time?

I could go part time but I decided on full time. I have been working for a couple of years and as hard as law school will be, I am looking forward to being a full time student again for three years.
