If I want to work in NYC after law school, all other things equal & other choices ruled out, should I go to Cardozo or W&M?

I know TCR will be "neither school", but please humor me here and help select the lesser of 2 potentially poor choices.

You don't need to create a billion threads for the same question.

If costs are the same, W&M. That is how I voted. However, I looked at your post history to figure out what the above posters were getting at. You botched.

If you want to have the highest chance of ending up in NYC then go to Cardozo.

And hey, if you're in the top 8% of your class you might get big law.

LOLYEAH. He's not sure what he wants to do, so he doesn't want to "limit his options" by going to Duke.

Lol I assume he's worried about Duke at sticker, but still doesn't make any sense.

I guess good LRAPs take all of the fun out of (not) paying back your law school debt. Good thing he can solve that by going to W&M or Cardozo!

Yeah that would just be boring I guess.

I'm sure this has been said several times in the other threads, but going to one of these schools over Duke when you are gunning for NYC would be silly.

At this point I hope he misses the Duke deadline and they tell him to get lost.

I change my earlier response and go with Cardozo IF we limit the choices to W&M + Cardozo.

BUT DUKE>>>>>>>> all schools that aren't T14

In the long run Duke is the safer financial decisions between the two, even at sticker.
