Re: what's the lowest ranked law school you would attend?
to be fair, i'd have said the same thing if emory were ranked in the lower 20s. i guess i meant T30 with substantial/full-ride scholarship. everything past USC down to ~T30 is more or less the same.Zojirushi wrote:3 spots is the difference between 120K in debt?? ouch.f0bolous wrote:I'd go to Emory if a substantial (>$100K) scholarship were offered

Do T30s even offer substantial scholarships, if you're not "special"?f0bolous wrote:to be fair, i'd have said the same thing if emory were ranked in the lower 20s. i guess i meant T30 with substantial/full-ride scholarship. everything past USC down to ~T30 is more or less the same.Zojirushi wrote:3 spots is the difference between 120K in debt?? ouch.f0bolous wrote:I'd go to Emory if a substantial (>$100K) scholarship were offered

Not to worry.

I just heard from my friend who graduated Valedictorian in his class from Yale, and he was offered a 40k PY job doing doc-reviews in the basement of an insurance defense firm, and he was happy to take it. The other option was to cook and eat his JD.

Re: what's the lowest ranked law school you would attend?
I would attend any school that gets me a license to practice law. Two reasons:
1. I'm independently wealthy so I'm not worried about tuition
2. I'm opening my own practice so I don't need to worry about impressing some deutschebag who cares more about my degree name than my inate ability to drum up business and clients

McDonalds is probably worth it, I imagine they send her to Ronald McDonald Culinary school for free.
