Over 10 THOUSAND NEW 1LS outside the T14.

Damn that's a lot of debt.
You're looking at the wrong column. It's way more than that. More like 38k.

Hey, she's the best paid judge in history and only works a few days a week. I'm sure that's a common outcome for NYLS grads.

Estimated 26,239 new Openings for Lawyers each year so supply at least will match demand moreso for those entering school now than it did for the whopping 52,408 1L's in 2010.

And yet with 1.268 Million lawyers currently active in the US, we already have 1 lawyer for every 247 people.

Almost 38 THOUSAND enrolled last year
OVER 34 THOUSAND outside the T14

Jesus.
Although do remember, not everyone going outside of the T14 is making a terrible choice. Only those paying sticker are for a few additional schools

100% agreed. I'm looking for a full scholly outside the T14 myself. But the students that end up paying my tuition (and others) are making terrible life decisions.

Three years ago, 22% of LSAT takers scored higher than the median matric to Hofstra. This fall, 48% did. (Median has gone from 159 to 152). Can anybody beat that? (American had a 163 median three years ago so they're a prime contender).

Definitely, and I've realized at my nonT14 how many actually are paying sticker. Even in state here is ridiculous.

Really? Wow. What have I been doing right for the last 28 years? I've never even been tangentially involved in a lawsuit.

Though, there was one rotten landlord I would have liked to sue.

I have encountered a few at my school and am confused because we are the money whore so I figured you would only come with $$$.

Yeah I mean I don't really have conversations about it w/ people but a lot have dropped that they didn't get any real discount.

The number of people I've heard that from is definitely lower than the number who have openly said their parents are paying all their expenses though.

Fuck those people.
