GW is in:

22: George Washington - BL+FC-32%, FTLTBR-79%, FTLTBR (w/o LSF)-65%
http://www.law.gwu.edu/Careers/prospect ... a_2014.pdf

Also:

149: Oklahoma City - BL+FC-2%, FTLTBR-58%, FTLTBR (w/o LSF)-58%
RNP: Elon - BL+FC-3%, FTLTBR-38%, FTLTBR (w/o LSF)-38%

GW remains a trap school and is down from previous years. As expected, in light of increasing class sizes + transfer class sizes. Expect this trend to worsen.

Don't they take like 50 transfers from American alone? In light of that, 32% BLFC placement isn't bad. Not saying GW is worth attending in most cases as they're stingy with scholarships and are located in a very high COL area.

They took 100 transfers this year total.

Also skewed with IPSECURE self selection.

32% is very good for GW given their class size.

And wow @ Stanford's clerkship numbers and Georgetown's FTLTBR non LSF numbers. It truly is in a class with UT, Vandy, UCLA, USC, and maybe WUSTL. Is there a catchy name for that group?

The new distinctions should be T13 and T18 instead of T14 and T20.

Not catchy, but practical and should be a thing. Also I realize this leaves out USC, but it's the best I can come up with.

It can be tricky to read their table, it's in a non-standard format.

Kinda surprised Vandy dropped a little given that other southern T1 schools seemed to be doing alright. Over 10% fed clerkship isn't bad, though.

Was 2014 employment data used in the 2016 USNWR rankings? If not, Michigan's rank could drop even further next year because Michigan increased its number of school funded jobs this year... the same year that US News changed its methodology to punish schools for school-funded jobs.

http://www.usnews.com/education/blogs/c ... s-rankings

No. They use the previous year's data.

Schools are not being punished for hiring their own grads, they are just not being rewarded as much.

They have a much smaller class size but they're also not in one of the biggest legal markets in the world. Plus, just glancing at LST, these numbers seem to be about average for them over the last few years. I wouldn't expect them to surpass GT in placement in any year (much less consistently) unless the southern legal markets really start booming.

[skers]

GWU should be #2 assuming your percentages are right.

how about we all run this joke into the ground more.
