TTTT Scholarship
Posted: Thu Nov 15, 2012 2:40 am
I was offered a full scholarship to a TTTT school that is literally 20 min from my house. Should I go? I know everyone on here is usually against these types of schools...

Just in case, you should probably see what that school's curve is. A lot of the lower ranked schools have ridiculously low median curves. 2.5 could be above median at said school.tonto wrote:They said I would keep the scholarship as long as I was above a 2.5.

Shitlaw jobs are the ~$40,000/year jobs where you do doc review and other shitty tasks like that. It is terrible work that lawyers look down upon, and the salary forces you to live in your parents' garage. However, most grads at TTTTs aren't even lucky enough to find this kind of work.

I think 40k a year might be a bit generous.jump_man wrote:Shitlaw jobs are the ~$40,000/year jobs where you do doc review and other shitty tasks like that.
