thoughts on Brooklyn Law? Forum

[lmperri]

would going to Brooklyn law (sticker) be worth it over Rutgers ($$) or even Fordham PT (with hopes of transferring to FT). Which option would be best for someone wishing to stay in the NYC/NJ area?

Brooklyn law is real crappy and you dont have very good choices. I think your best bet is to go to Fordham part time and transfer in.

I agree with duke law guy unless you have substantial scholly at rutgers and dont mind possibly making a career in NJ.

Brooklyn Law's job prospects aren't as strong as Fordham's. Either way, you'll be competing with grads from NYU, Cornell, and Columbia. That said, it's not like most graduates of Brooklyn are homelesss and unemployed. If it were me, I'd want to skip the PT stuff and start a FT program, and I'd rather live in NYC than NJ any day.

What was your LSAT score and how did you study for it? Re-take is quite possibly TCR.

Otherwise Fordham PT or don't go to law school. Do NOT NOT NOT go to Brooklyn at sticker.

would going to Fordham PT hurt my chances at OCI though?

LSAT - 165
GPA - 3.1
