Where to go to law school for patent litigation?

So, I was wondering what the best schools are for patent litigation. In order to find this out, should I just look at the top IP law schools? Also, I only have a B.S. degree in biochemistry and cell biology with mediocre grades and barely any relevant work experience. Will I have a shot at IP litigation at a biglaw firm and how much do IP litigation lawyers maker? Any responses will be greatly appreciated.

It is my understanding that you'll pretty much just want to go to the best school that you feel comfortable in and that you can get into. But what does an 0L know? Nothing.

First, try and get a science job. Don't go to law school. Glycogenolysis beats law any day.

Second, I cant change ur mind so go to the cheapest law school possible with the smallest debt load.
