Well, Chemerinshamalamadingdong couldn't reliably pull his connections like he did for their first graduating year, which is why we saw 30% gross unemployment for the c/o 2013 compared to roughly half that for c/o 2012:

Yeah. March I think (?)
I mean, I really don't care. Rankings are silly. Irvine will probably be at least Top 40, I would think.

Yea March sounds right since I remember the rankings changed after I visited WUSTL which was in March. And lol Brut. While there are a lot of problems with the rankings, it'd be nice if Emory got bumped back down since they jumped only because they started hiring their own grads.

This just makes me so irrationally angry. I would say that they are another trap school like GWU...

But it would be funny to have pennemory or irvineford mashups.

Their numbers are basically the same, I'm sure given the 30% class reduction they were looking to increase both their GPA and LSAT median by quite a bit but just didn't have enough applicants.

Class size down roughly 30%.
What rank do you think UCI will debut at next year?

If I had to guess, I'd say the 25-35 bracket.

That's a tough question.

It's LSAT median puts it at about #20-#25 and it's GPA median fits in at about #30ish. I think the employment drop from last year is going to hurt it a bit and reputation score probably won't be great for a new school.

My completely indefensible and uneducated guess...

#36

Right around BC and UCD.

Interesting.

I wonder what the story is behind the one part-time student?

Also, I thought that Wisconsin graduates were waived past the Wisconsin bar exam, yet it appears one student "failed" the WI bar, how did the pull that off?

Some people, despite being waived into it, choose to take it as a "rite of passage" to experience the bar exam.
If they fail to pass, then they just waive into it as usual. It's dumb but yeah, I know someone who did that.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
