This is somewhat hypothetical at this point, but assuming private sector, debt averse, what do y'all think?

You might like daydreaming about them, but others don't like talking about them.

Sorry if it's coming off at presumptuous. Not my intention at all.
I just thought it could be useful to someone at some point, even if I turn out not to be the lucky one. (Also I like daydreaming about possible futures.)

There is an argument for T3 over fullride at Cornell, but no good argument for CCN over Cornell. Firms are only slightly more selective (in the aggregate) from Cornell compared to CCN. And you'll save a shit load of money.catwomangirl wrote:This is somewhat hypothetical at this point, but assuming private sector, debt averse, what do y'all think?

LOL how law school has changed you! A lot of people have gotten a lot more realistic about things now that they've gone through 1L.Desert Fox wrote:There is an argument for T3 over fullride at Cornell, but no good argument for CCN over Cornell.

I've always been a "take the money at a lower T14" guy. I'd have taken a full ride at a lower T14 over HYS too. But there is at least an argument for HYS.BruceWayne wrote:LOL how law school has changed you!

In fairness the fact that NYU and CLS have p/f LRW and only 3 doctrinal classes per semester is actually more important than almost any other factor when choosing between them and Cornell. But if you have close to a full ride at Cornell then you should suck it up and take the brutal Cornell 1L workload (4 graded doctrinal classes AND graded LRW each semester).
There should be some sort of mechanism for limiting the amount of bullshit that gets spewed on these forums, don't you think?Nobody wrote:I don't really understand the pile on against legitimate hypotheticals. Even if the OP doesn't have to make this choice, someone probably will.

Anyhow, they gave us a garbage hypothetical. (Nearly) full ride at Cornell versus Yale, versus Harvard, versus Stanford, and versus CCN are all separate cases (and yes I'm trolling each and every one of the CCN schools there). And what is a "nearly" full ride anyhow?
Basically get down to brass tacks or GTFO.
i get the feeling that maybe the brutality is why cornell places decent. I'm not really sure how you get a full ride at cornell but have to pay sticker at a T6. any decent scholarship options at mich or penn? I'm only a 1L at Cornell but the overall vibe I get from the 2L's regarding job placement is much more positive than I'd expect. So if you can go there for free its probably a good bet.BruceWayne wrote:LOL how law school has changed you!

Not a waste of time, the whole purpose of this site is to waste time. It's the bullshit that gets people's dander up.Wart wrote:I find it ironic that people on here are constantly blasted for asking hypothetical questions because such questions are a waste of time, when clearly, people on this site have no problem wasting time.
Ugh, don't say this shit. It's not productive. In fact, it's counterproductive.ScrabbleChamp wrote:I think you should not ask about things that have not yet happened.catwomangirl wrote: This issomewhathypothetical at this point, but assuming private sector, debt averse, what do y'all think?
