Sorry I meant ~40% RD. Obviously ED would boost that percentage significantly, but there's not enough LSN data to say exactly how high.Sentry wrote:Looking at Chicago's ED stats from LSN I think my chances are a lot better than 40%.im_blue wrote:Based on LSN, you have a ~40% chance at each of Chicago and NYU, so ED at the one you like better.

Am I missing something or did everybody except one with an LSAT over median get accepted?
Chicago is getting a decent amount of firms at its OCI, given its tiny class size. Historically, Chicago placed more of its grads into NYC than Chicago. I'd personally go to Chicago.Sentry wrote:I'm willing to pay sticker for CCN. I've heard the Chicago legal market has been tanking ITE so does that give NYU a slight edge or are they for the most part equal? I'm leaning slightly to Chicago because of lower COL, but I really like NYC and would rather have higher debt and better job opportunities.sumus romani wrote:Your numbers give you a good shot at either NYU or Chi ED. Col. is even a possibility. But if I were in your shoes, I would ED to NYU or Chi. to play it safe. Of course you understand that if you ED, you'll be paying sticker.
Chances of unemployment are basically the same at both schools. It's easier to network, make contacts, etc. in the city where you want to work, but contrary to TLS hyperbole, neither school is going to doom you to its home market. So if you like Chicago, go to Chicago.Sentry wrote:Chicago, but employed in NY is better than unemployed in Chicago.Renzo wrote:Where would you rather work, Chicago or NYC?
