You're doing it wrong. The key is to go to a cheap, mediocre undergrad and then to a reputable law school. No one cares where a lawyer went to undergrad.
And yes, just because you went to Princeton for undergrad doesn't mean you get to go to a good law school.

If you parents have 200K to burn, TTT is a pretty poor option. Buying you a condo would be a lot better.witorres89 wrote:Elite law schools have lots of rich kids.

I keep seeing a great deal of people from elite UG going to TTT and TTTT law schools. I am going to safely assume that most are paying sticker at the school. Anyone have any reason as how this happens? Are they unaware of what is going on? For exmaple, I just find it hard to believe that someone who went to Princeton UG in stuck going to Suffolk Law.
